Here's my one and only trouble child:
Also, I noticed this on one of the plants today:
I don't think that's necessarily bad. However, a second opinion would help.
Here is something else I noticed on another plant:
This particular plant is growing a little more slowly than the others. It had some issues the other week, but got a good amount of flushing. What's up with the tips tho? I'm guessing it's a mg def?
Mg def. Based on the age and rust spots and yellowing on lower leaves + badly curled tips.
Epsom salt or cal/mag should fix that right up.
The last picture with the browning on the fringes is something else obviously. My guess is the root-zone is/was too soggy or stagnant. Are you adding fresh water daily or letting it use up the hempy res over say 2-3 days?

I'm feeding them full strength daily actually. I talked to Harry about it, and he said that's what he did. Should I cut back for a day or two?

The admins are tired of this shitfest being made the joke of the weed community on the Internet.

I don't think the strength of your solution has anything to do with it, but higher EC does = easier Mg def. Don't doubt Harry's formula or results, but in your case for whatever reason (higher RH vs. Harry perhaps?) it seems like too much water is accumulating in the res. This is just my opinion though and I'm surprised nobody else has chimed in w/ hempy being so popular.
Might not hurt to set aside a tester and not water it until it completely extinguishes what is in its res. If it takes longer than 48-72 hours to do that there is your problem though.
Never doubted the guy for a minute. It's my bungling.
I've noticed that occasionally, there are some problems with run off. Perlite clogging up the hole and what not.

... were you going to add something?

1/2 teaspons of epsom salt over 1 gallon of water, and I do agree with the magnesium deficieny
