I've got purple streaking above the first node on all 8 5" clones I picked up and transplanted Sunday night. It's not full purple just starting to show some color change. Leaves are still dark green but new growth is lime green. Nursery had nutrient solution at 300ppm so that's where I have mine.

Environmental
10x5x7.5 grow tent.
RDWC, low water level, hand feeding till roots show.
65% humidity day and night.
75 degrees day.
70 degrees night.
68-70 water temp with hydroguard.
10" exhaust fan 780cfm.
Passive intake.
PH 5.5 - 6.2 using citric acid with short life span.
RO 300ppm, 50ppm calmag - 250ppm nutes.

Hand feeding till hear runoff once every 12 hours but seemed to often so switched to once every 24 hours on day 2.

It's mag deficient. Add Epsom or molasses or get some fulmag

That is the assumption but then how much ppm for calmag if 50 isn't high enough?

You don't need calcium or nitrogen so don't do calmag. try a 1/2-1 tsp per gallon Epsom salt.

I went ahead and ordered the Epsom salts from Amazon but I'm still a little confused. Isn't calimagic used specifically for this symptom and I was under the impression that it doesn't contain nitrogen?

Calmag unless otherwise noted has nitrogen. You are best to get the calcium and mag separate. You don't always need both. Biomin calcium is great, they also have a fulmag which is fulvic plus mag

Mine only has cal and mag but like I said I went ahead and ordered epsom. I'm also going with non-pretty labeled ingredients as well. Took two grows but I learned not to pay for labels anymore. My friends even picking me up some chemist base phosphoric acid from his pharma job.

Thanks!

What medium are the clones sitting in when you got them? When you planted them?
