Morning guys, looking for some advice on this, I had a little issue with some bugs in my soil grow from fox farm soil so instead of using pesticides i switched them over to a DWC set up, No top feed....When I first put them in there after soaking out all the soil they were obviously droopy an it, but maybe within 2 hours they were thriving peeking up nice and tall man I thought I had it going pretty good feeling good about he change. So I woke up this morning and the plants look OK but not how they looked yesterday. I went this morning reading info on diffierent individuals setups, etc etc....I had my 6 inch net pots submerged in the water about 2 inches covering the bottom of the pot. I read that I should lower it just barely under the net pot which i did. I checked my PH this morning and yes it went back up to around 6.3/6.4 in which I lowered it back down to 5.6 to 5.8. It's not that they are lifeless, but the top colas are wicked flexible and kind of starting to limp over. I added about 2.5 tsp of rapid start to the 13 gallons of 5.5 spring water yesterday afternoon and that is ALL I have given them. I didn't want to start nutes right off the bat like this. I'm no expert with this system, but I looked around and to my knowledge decided to lower the water to just about a half inch submerged as opposed to the 2 inch submerge. Any help on this would be greatful, they're super nice plants and I wanna keep these girls going! Maybe it's just the transition, lack of nutes, water level, etc I'm gonna say right now I DO NOT have an EC/PPM meter obviously something I know I need and can buy one but I just set this up yesterday. Here's some pictures!
