Hello guys,
Well from what i've looked at in resources section, various threads and bits i've googled i got an idea what the problem is but as there a lot of experienced people on here thought i'd see if someone could give me a definite diagnosis on whats up with my DWC girl.

I using canna A&B in a home made DWC set up which has been thriving up till about a week ago.
She still in veg.
Very good root development, no root issues, nice and healthy there.
Plant looks a lovely green despite the pics, thats just the hps makin em look yellowish.
Infact if it wasn't for this curling the plant would look really healthy indeed.
Damn thing was just thinking how well it was going too lol.
Good job i got a room full of coco girls to cheer me up lol.

I'm thinking mg deficiency from descriptions i've read but pics tend to look different.
Any help plz?

what kind of water are u using...tap or RO. what is the ph of the water. If your using Ro and your ph is good you might need some cal/mag. It could also be heat stress, which is my next question, how close are your lights?

It not heat but they did get a cold spell due to me being thick and leaving window open in a cold snap lol.
It's tap but its monitered and left for a minimum of 24hr, ph 5.8.
Think its a cal/mg def caused by the cold snap, what you think?
Cheers for ya time fella
