Capulator: Trying to keep a positive attitude but this shit is driving me insane.
Cemchris: I've had the Co2 off for about a week now but these plants are so far gone it probably doesn't matter. Initially I had the Co2 set for about 600 ppm but if even one person is in the room for any length of time it shoots way up and stays up since the plants are not photosynthesizing and thus are not absorbing any CO2. Hard to believe that this could cause the dramatic damage that these plant have suffered though.
Come to think of it, I brought ten healthy "test" plants in about a week ago at which point I switched to an RO water source and turned off the humidifier and CO2. No visible difference in the old plants; the new ones are paling, rusting, and yellowing from the outside in.
Just curious, do you have a dehumidifier in that room?

Thanks, cemchris and maxwell for the kind words.
As far as root aphids or other bugs, i've spent hours examining the roots and leaves for bugs. The only ones I could find were tiny soil mites; at first I thought they were the so called "micro" aphids but I had an entomologist look at them and she said they were harmless, even perhaps beneficial soil mites. Said they were a sign of healthy soil. I was using a large amount of beneficial bacteria and fungi, both mixed into the medium and applied via ACT teas.
