Errythings okay. It's interesting how WW seems to make wider leaves than my last NL although it's considered to be more on the sativa side. I went to local pet shop to buy PH down for my new aquarium hobby and the dude started educating me about managing water PH. It seems like the air bubbled into the tank produces CO2 which causes Ph to fluctuate. Apparently there's some algae / microbes /plants to balance it but I'm just gonna suffer and feed the ph down as needed. I got a new 315W CMH lamp, pretty excited about that. It's a full spectrum 6400k light with uv , 10-15% blue light and shizz. I was considering leds first but ditched that idea after seeing some scientist talk about how the differect spectrum fotons positively affect plant health and growth. I feel lazy so I'm just gonna use the same 15L container all the way. Maby it helps with keeping the PH / Nutrients in balance. Tent is gonna have couple winflex blowers and 2 standard fans along with humidifier + towel. hopefully thats enough to keep out 300 watts of heat away. I'm gonna mix new solution tomorrow and let it sit for couple days to declorinate tap water and help with ph balance.

I know there might be millions things causing these but maby this is some common problem with hydro? Do things like this usually come along with root problems or have i messed up some other obvious thing? Other details in weekly/pics

hi there Haftanara, i can confirm that it's surely not N toxicity which you can from dark green leaves and glossy shine. It's not calcium problems which are more "spotty" and it's not magnesium which is more uniform around the edges of the leaves. It's could be PH fluctuations , certainly it looks exactly like it, but what i do think it is, is root problems that look like pH fluctuations because we're also seeing that leaf cupping and leaf curling ... and, you know... brown roots ! so what you can do is get something like some hydroguard, up the enzymes a lot maybe up to 2 , 2.5... or what i think will help the most is a technique called root pruning. Root pruning is when you cut all the unhealthy roots off, carefully. This technique is very effective at stimulating growth, so you'll actually see faster and more vigorous growth ! what you do is simply cut off any brown dark brown roots, until there are none left or until a maximum of less than 20% of the total root mass... then wait and see how great it helps ! you can repeat this once a week once every 10 days, up to you and up to the plant, but you wont be stunting it's growth, on the contrary, the plant will thank you for it ! does this make sense ? hope this helps ! 🚀

There's some purple hue thing going on, think thats another nitrogen / ph lockout kinda thing, pheno or is this the kind thing to happen when you keep temps sub 25C? I did give it fairly sturdy bloom and perhaps little too much micro hence the burns

Looks like its normal i just would wait and maybe lower the ph a bit (5.5 - 5,8ph) . Some strains get/are purple/viloet/red/black or whatever (ww not really 😅). In the other hand plants turn purple at flower stage if the night temps drop (depends on strain how low, but in my experience normaly at about 15C° and strain which like it warm already starts sometimes at 20C°. Your PH can you geh down with a good ph down product. Take water, check ph, add ph down if necessary and mix it, wait some time and check ph again. Do it till your ph fits. (Ps the wait Time after adding ph down befor checking ph is important, so everything geh really mixed.) I use lemon juice to get my ph down, but im growing on soil and i dont know if lemon juice keep the ph stabil with hydro. Good luck ✌️
