Thanks for the response! Uptops showing some signs of trouble but I’m not sure if it’s a nutrient deficiency since I waited a good 3 weeks to feed. Any thoughts? Thanks again

These are about 20 days from sprout.Room Th is around 65% (I did have a night when it dropped to 35%) temps 70-75 ph 5.7-6.2 rdwc current culture nutes at 80ppm a+b plus cal mag. R.o water. Water temp 69. Water levels about 2 inch’s below and roots are touching water now. I’m not top feeding but The root plug is pretty saturated from the splash up of the stones I guess. 65 watt Quantum board lighting is about 18 inch’s above

Had a algae issue hence the tin foil. I’ll give that a shot thanks

Algae = watering too much and or not enough air movement.

Fix problems, don' put bandaids on them. They just make the original issue even worse off.

Those look like mites to me.im sure 8 legs is a mite.not sure if good or bad.
