What about this? @Myfriendis410
What does the whole plant look like?

That looks like PH issue to me but yeah let’s see the whole plant.
Ps it’s nice to see the progress we will have to see how this grow looks when it’s stacked up and thick as your other pics seem to be at different timelines.

Here she is
Yeah Nicky its crazy how you can see the progress from 1st to 2nd grow for sure!
Let me know what you guys think

When I mix my nutrients and give it sometime to settle then check the pH its always at 6.0 if its not 5.9

Give us a full set of numbers in and out ash.
Plant looks fairly healthy but that leaf pattern makes me think PH is starting to do something wonkey.
I mean you could flush with water and then give a full feed, your in coco it won’t hurt.
Flush watching your ppm out, once it’s dropped nice and low then just give a full feed with Ph’d food and feed it as much as you normally would if it was dry. Let it soak up the nutrients even if the liquids coming out.
It won’t hurt that’s for sure.
Again plant looks good ash, but better to be proactive if you have the time and can catch it early.

I’ll have that for you tonight. I’ll feed again just to give you numbers
I thought when you flush you let it dry then resume feeding. Is this not correct?
Thanks for your feedback @Nicky

@Myfriendis410 @Nicky @Not2SureYet so I made 2 different batches. Had to fill the jug twice as I didnt use a bucket this time.
First batch: 6.0 pH & 1050 ppm
Runoff:
-Sunset Sherbet: 6.3 pH & 1130 ppm
-Purple Kush (the one that I thought had issues):
6.0 pH & 1200 ppm
Second batch: 5.8 pH & 1030 ppm
Runoff:
Lemon Bubba: 6.3 pH & 1390 ppm
Caramel: 6.1 pH & 1470 ppm
Yup, flush it ash.
Your ppm is higher coming out then going in, you have a salt build up. Causing PH issues.
Flush it
See that? If your in coco that shouldn’t be happening unless you fed heavy previously.
But I don’t see why you would be feeding less now then before…
Yet all your ppm are higher sooo what’s going on here
What was your last feed?
Ps you don’t have to let it dry to flush.
The idea is to flush to let the medium expell nutrients /salts.
After that it’s able to absorb again, no need to wait for it to dry really.
Okay so I looked up your last feed was similar to this feed.
So your not giving enough run off and your ppm is building up in the root zone.
Flush them all… Sorry more work for you.

Yeah I treat promix HP like coco. I haven’t been measuring the run off and I also haven’t been watering until theres a decent amount of run off. Only until theres like a little bit. So you’re right I haven’t been watering till at least 20-30% runoff. That’s all my fault. Back to being technical.
I think what I’ll have to do is go back to a f/w schedule. That’s what I usually do because I find when I water them, the TDS run off tends to be lower than input of previous feeding. I know better than that. They’ll bounce back though I’m sure.
What I meant was let the medium dry a little bit after you flush then feed. I usually flush till <100 ppm then wait a couple of days for it to dry a little bit then resume feeding.
The more work the more I learn
Or water only until TDS drops in the runoff. Then resume feeding.

I’m with Alan
Water until tds drops, that’s a flush. Then feed, the medium will absorb the nutrients.
You know better then to take the shortcuts your taking ash, you need to feed every time and feed till 20% run off. A feed water scedule is not ideal, the reason for this is when you are on that water only day you are denying the a full feed to your plants. Now while there may be nutrients to absorb it may not be the nutrient they are looking for in the full amount.
Find it labour intensive and time consuming? Get autopots 
Caught it early at least.

Thank you guys for the feedback!
@Nicky @Myfriendis410 When the TDS drops in runoff should I immediately feed even when I just watered them or wait for a couple of days for it to dry then resume feeding?
Sounds good. Thanks @Nicky
