I know you mentioned you are mixing into a Rez, but you didn't say what kind of system you are running. I had the same issues when I first switched to PBP/LK in my Ebb & Flow Systems. On MrWags and King Ralph's advice, I backed down on my nute strength and the problem sorted itself. Full strength looks OK on a PPM/EC meter but is WAYYYYY TOO STRONG IMHO

YEs ive figured this out last night!!! IM clearly OVERFEEDING!! There is NO defficiency at all..THis is clear result of TOXICITY!! OOOOPPSS....
Yes im running 4in rwcubes in a ebb/flow setup with a 40gal res 4x4 tray!!
So ive flushed for a day and have refilled with 50% of what was running at 30ml is know at 15ml per gallon and the hydroplex is at 50% of 5ml as well!!
So yes your exactly right it looks ok on the meter but OMG I was slowly Frying my babies!! Thanks for your advice Im glad im on the right track with my thinking!!

Gratefuldawg u know i kinda thought it was a defficency but I know the cal-mag right away was out cause i have sever hard water and a couple years ago i tried it and it immediatly Fried them within 3/4 days so i know my water has enough cal/mag and shit in it so it had to be something else and I was clearly Frying them to there death!!

That sucks man..it's really gonna **** up the taste and smell, and most likely potency too. Next time should be flawless though. I've had problems this go as well..shit sucks. But it's something that won't happen again. So far this grow I've had little catapillers, spiders, nats, bad nutes that were sitting in a 100 degree cabinet this summer, over feeding, under feeding, old veg light, high temps, high humidity, you name it. At least the 4 in my basement that are flowering look good. All my veg plants are ****ed though, looks like I'm gonna have to rationalize my harvest cause there won't be another one anytime soon.

I have noticed overfeeding with pure blend does not **** with the taiste as much, but it sure does stunt the plants and tric production.

I know i was looking at em it looks like you barely overfed or have a strong feeder as it look like it took the dmg like a champ, i notice it's really hard to kill plants with pbp.
