Yeah no cover we made one big one so its easier to clean out, should I be using a cover? I also have a 100 gallon in the back room I used to use (http://www.globalindustrial.com/p/storage/bins-totes-containers/stocktanks/rubbermaid-fg424288bla-stock-tank-100-gallon-black-270079?infoParam.campaignId=T9F&gclid=CjwKEAjwltC9BRDRvMfD2N66nlISJACq8591ts8_XH-GwmHn-FLd0DJZikFCM4GemFOEyH7nadX8QxoCO-fw_wcB)
We are going to be using a chiller aren't you suppose to with hydroponics and do you know what tempature the water should be chilled to?
Anything below 72 or 7p degrees but I run my reservoirs at 65 to 68

Perfectly normal.

...is that a serious answer because it really does stink! haha and no I only bought a set of 100ml bottles off amazon to test to see if worth spending the money.. but my plant seems to be having some problems

Because you’re pissing your money away on that bullshit company.

Any help on how to fix these problems?
Well they actually look over fertilized. So my suggestion would be to just give them plain water the next couple of waterings and see if that helps. Some would say to flush, but you can go from one extreme to the other like that.


Also, if you could post a pic without the led’s on. That would make it easier for us to diagnose.

Thanks again for the help bud, had this last time and couldn't seem to get a straight answer from anyone and thy all saying different things...as if they're just disagreeing for the very sake of it... so cheers to you chaps on here that actually lend a hand

Yeah and be patient. Don’t expect them to recover over night. And don’t go watering them right now if they don’t need it.

The leaves that are already damaged won’t always recover. They might green up a bit, but don’t worry about them too much. Look for the change to happen on the new growth.

Thank chaps, glad to see two people finally saying the same thing!! How long should it take roughly? Would 6.5ph be sufficient during this time? And would I be correct in thinking this must be resolved before switch to 12/12 or it will just highten the problem?
Honestly from what everyone has said I'm glad I only spent the ..£12 on the 4 100ml testers

Yes, do not put those unhealthy plants into flower at this time. It could take a couple weeks to clear up. What else have you been feeding it? You never provided that information. 6.5 ph should be fine if not even lower. Typically over fertilization leads to a higher ph in the soil. But don't go crazy trying to over correct things. There is no miracle cure. It will take a little time to get things back in order and your plants growing healthy again.
Good luck

Best guess on ph as not sure how accurate the little £10 thing is
Just got a ppm reader that should help.

I realised what a dumbass mistake i made as I've vegged her for 11 weeks and was flowing the biobizz feeding schedual....only I didn't realise it show to lip then at like weed 3 She the big lemons been pumped with shit, I flushed her a week or two ago and fed up grow and calmag...with but of top max as I was told that would sort them out... but at all, she's already lost plenty of fan leaves....I think it's more that when I get these problems I simply don't know which of my nutes to add etc...starting to think I should've just followed a grow page on here and used all same nutes etc... man memory loss sucks assss
