I don't know what it is but I don't think it's heat stress. What kind of nutrients are you using? Have you checked your pH?

That looks like severe nutrient issues. As always, please fill out the questionnaire at the top of this forum. The more info we have, the better the chance is that we can help you.

You have to ph your water man. I use the trio pack too and it has my water all over the place some times.

Well, you could either be having a nute lock out because of nutrients or pH. I would at least go by one of the drop pH detectors from your hydro until your meter arrives. Not even really much point in flushing if you don't know what pH you are dealing with.

I call bullshit. There have to be supplies for testing pH of pools, and hot tubs etc. It doesn't have to be a plant specific pH test kit to test the pH of your water.
Where do you live?

You don't have a regular garden store anywhere near you? Pretty sure that's where I got my meter.

Thats the one i use . 
i had to learn this one on my own.
Get to shot glasses and take the packs,they are marked 4.1 and 7.o
So put the packs in each glass and add water. Stir what ever . And get some clean water. i use to rinse it off with.
Now put the pen in the 4.1 . What does its? Rinse off and put it in the 7.0. whats it say? Now you can calibrate it with the
Little screw driver. Not hard, but those packets only last like one time so you you will have to get more later.
But I forgot to say Its junk if you get it wet past the mark this is my second one in a year.

It's probably correct.
How much in the way of nutes are you giving and how often.

Well that doesn't tell me anything without actually looking it up man. But I'm guessing you need to flush the shit out of your soil. And go with a lower dose. Rule of thumb is to never give the full recommended dose of any nutrient. Always go at least half to begin with. Especially since you don't know your strain yet.

It could be right. But you wont know till you test it. I just tested mine and it was off by 2 points

Is that meter just for testing the water? In my opinion it's way better to get the ones that test the soil after you've watered.

Did you check the ph of your water after adding nutes? I never used fox farm,
But soul synthetics knocks the ph of my 7.2 tap water down to the low 5's. Either way Flush and start nutes at half strength.
