It sort of looks like what was happening to the bottom set of leaves on one of my plants, and it was nute burn. Are you sure it isn't that?

I am with sage and sour on this one. Mg deficiency. a little epson salt should fix it nicely. It does look like an old leaf and I wouldnt sweat it too much if your plant is overall healthy. have you been overwatering lately?
was bottom and top but just one side of the plant. 1200 PPM is not enough to keep mg def away? Hmmm that could make sense since its the biggest plant?
i use DWC 5 gallon buckets, i dont think u can over water in my system. With airstone in each bucket
How much salt should i put in?

opps my bad I jumped the gun with the pictures...I guess you cant overwater hydro lol. Mg deficiency usually show up in overwatered plants or soil at least.
How is root health of that plant as compared to others?
You said it is only affecting 1 side of the plant? You running Ozone? Just a dumb luck guess.
Damn I dont know hydro. running ebson salt in soil is real easy. Foilage feeding mabee an option for ya? I dont think you can use just plain ebson salt in hydro. Look for something to take care of Ca and Mag deficency and trace elements. How is the overall health of the plant? If it looks overall good. I wouldnt stress it too much considering you got 25 health girls. Hydro just seems funny to be messing around. You got a nice health army going. Why change it to fix one plant.

Ekk....brave bold man you are
. epson salt is magnesium sulfate if that helps. I would definatly get a second opinion before trying to run it in a hydro.If your in DWC any chance you can isolate that plant nutrient solution from the other plants?

You give us the ph, however you don't mention what you are feeding them.
What nutirent system are they eating?
What are the npk values for these nutrients?
If you are treating each plant identical and they are all the same strain, then it is likely that if one plant has an issue the others are likely to begin showing the same, if it is in fact a nutrient problem.
I noticed someone mentioned pests, you do not have em.

I side with the last 2 posts. Epson salt is not the best idea for a hydro system. The botanicare calmag is a great additive! I have been using it for the past year on all my plants and it has worked brilliantly. Now-a-days I find myself just running it constantly whether or not I actually have a problem.

Alot of nutrient systems don't contain enough cal/mag for these plants, especially the 1 part nutrients. The 2 and 3 parts nutrient programs have more but sometimes the strain can need more than is available, shit there is so many variables....if this then that all the time
And it is easy to give them too much cal/mag as well....and then that locks out this and then there's that.
