Imo I would give that plant 100%. I know your light isn't much different than mine and they are light hungry.
I run 11/13 myself for flower
no issues at all, I've had to bend a couple of main colas a little cause they were getting too close, but other than that I am able to put all concerns about my light aside. just try and remember whether your using a 4x4 or a 5x5 tent you've got total coverage with that light, even in the corners at 36+ inches. you've got 3,888 high power leds on that monster, it can handle being 36" away and still provide all the light you need
Most likely seeing problems due to lack of nutrition. 771 PPM is too low for flowering. In flowering you can go past 1000. Depending on the pheno, 1000-1500 and sometimes even higher. That would be my guess.
need to see the whole plant my man....have you grown with that Diablo yet? or is this ur first run? I ask because I have three, on my fourth now, runs with that light.....first let me compliment you on your choice in lights, You are obviously highly intelligent and did your homework!!!
that being said, I have some advice for you regarding your light......if you are growing in a tent, you need to raise it up, and turn it down!!! GET A WATT METER, Start as high as your tent allows at about 300watts and leave it there....see how they respond, and adjust accordingly.....turn the light up slowly (10-20 watts at a time) and over a 3-5 day period until you get to the intensity you want.. use HLGs PAR report as a guide. for example: if it says at 18" a certain area is 1000ppf then 36" is gonna be 500, and so on. Unless you have an actual PAR meter This is the only thing I could think of doing to wrangle this light, for it is a beautiful beast, and it will devour your plants, if you let it.....They do all the testing at 100%. NEVER, and I don't care how much CO2 your pumping into the tent, put that light closer than 18" at full power!! Unless, you want to see whether or not a light can actually melt a plant..... As for what's wrong with your plant, that's for the other guys to answer, not very good at diagnosis
