did you see the tip burn? or was he at a higher ppm and now it's only 500.
i run DG at only 0.6 EC with great results in veg.
Can someone tell me what I'm the hell is going on!

The first image is, literally, a textbook picture of nutrient burn.
The second is a section taken from his original picture posted.
Now, I'm not sure if he has an instrumentation issue, or if he didn't test until AFTER he fed the plants and then tested what was left in the reservoir or what, but that is fucking burnt. Full stop.

he claims hes been running 500ppm
I agree with the low EC feeds.. I run EC between 1.0 and 1.2 which is considered low by most standards
but 500 ppm is pretty low depending on the conversion
my tap water is 300ppm
I cant see how he got nute burn with that
I think the burnt tips are def

My tap water is just over 200ppm. Like I said I didn't burn anything with nutes. These are deficiencies

autos probably.
DG is seriously strong stuff.
but i agree, i never go above 1.2 EC ever.

I burnt a plant my first time out. Looked exactly like yours. I've not done it since.

There is absolutely no reason for me to lie about ppm. Sounds like you guys are changing the facts to fit your hypotheses instead of changing your hypotheses to suit the facts

Look at this screen shot and tell me those aren't burned tips

I was using a lot of ph up recently and what that screenshot says makes perfect sense

you shouldn't have to use any pH UP. you sure your roots are OK?

But your plant looks nothing like that. Notice how yours doesn't have a dark green center surrounded by yellow? Notice how your leafs are curling up rather hard but the other isn't?
It's not the same thing man.
But good luck whatever way you want to go. I'm out.

Bump the lights down to 18 hours on.
It works well, and saves energy/bulb life

I wish somebody would tell me the npk% amounts for his fertilizer
that would clear up the debate for sure
if his tap is 200ppm and hes feeding 500ppm
you think hes got nute burn.....
guys
extremely under fed hungry plants can create the exact same look of "burn" on the tips as over fertilizing

What about this plant? Is this not exactly what the screenshot was showing minus the yellowing
