I think my ph reader was reading on the high side so my soil may be more acidic then I thought. I ran a gallon of pure spring water through the plants because the ph is slightly higher than distilled. Should I run more spring water than that?
Would some Epsom salt on the top of the soil help?
Generally the rule of thumb is 3x water as size of pot. I don’t go that high, but for my 5 gal pots I run three gallons. You can use just tap water for the flush. Then with the final nutrient solution they get fed should be set to the right ph.

No they don’t necessarily “need” to go. You can take them off if you want, but if not just leave them.
Hi CL...
any chance you can get a pic ot two with the lights off or in natural light?
Is the problem on the lower part, middle or upper of the plant?
How often are you feeding in the coco and at what pH? Full strength nutes? I know you probably have this somewhere but for me to look would take effort which I seem to be lacking today

I would love if you can look at them. The entire grow they have had fox farms 1/4-1/2 strength + cal mag+ distilled, I keep my ph at 5.8. They went from looking beautiful and green to having issues within a few days. My biggest flowering plant has the worst issues. Thank you so muchHi CL...

Is the problem happening on the bottom of the plant too? The older fan leaves affected? Or is it the middle? Maybe mostly the top?
What's the NPK value on the calmag and how much have you been giving in the mix?

P.s. I am in love with your dog. Mine is only 55 pounds, shar-pei lab mix, Maverick.

OK, so it doesn't make sense to be a P or K def as they are mobile elements and you would have seen the issues at the bottom of the plant. The pics from yesterday definitely show as a Ca def. Today it probably got worse.
How much calmag have you been feeding them?
Your Maverick is a looker and I'm sure he's a hit with all the bitches at the park! Beautiful mix.

4 t. Per gallon. 1-1/2 gallons, 2x daily and it has been creating 10-15 % runoff on each of the 4 plants.OK, so it doesn't make sense to be a P or K def as they are mobile elements and you would have seen the issues at the bottom of the plant.

He is my bff but he knows he’s a looker and can be a big fat douche! Haha
OK, the bottle pic didn't say the directions. Is that half strength as well or full strength?
lol, they all are and that's why we love 'em!He is my bff but he knows he’s a looker and can be a big fat douche! Haha

That’s true, I would not care what he did, I would always love him. I was using a 1/4 but have bumped it up to a 1/2 per feeding. They eat every day, I don’t know if that is bad? Here is the fox farms schedule i have been following at 1/4-1/2 strength. I am using week 12, plant were planted 11/27 thinking they were autos.

I think the others guessed it correctly as a Ca def. When you dropped the Grow Big some of the Ca was probably taken away. I would go to full strength on the calmag only and leave the rest as is since you say the plants are healthy otherwise.
