Right on, I’ll keep an eye out. After my res change I put EC to .9. Do you think that is too low?That downward wrinkle can be from n toxicity. I just had it on a bigger plant than that at 1.3 ec.
I run f/d so it's a bit different but not much. Your main issue from what I see is your running way to rich. I go with ppm which is a little more accurate imo. Turn your pump off just a second and get an accurate reading of the depth in the resv. and check the ppm, do this daily. PPM should remain constant as the water level drops.Right on, I’ll keep an eye out. After my res change I put EC to .9. Do you think that is too low?
I call it the lobster claw. But I know it ain’t good! I’m just excited to be getting after this!! Thanks for the tip.
I’m not sure what f/d is, your point is clear.I run f/d so it's a bit different but not much. Your main issue from what I see is your running way to rich.

Thanks for the explanation.You can lose those roots on a plant this young, not good but they will live. But I would give your nutrient program a look over. I've ran hydro for 20 years and not seen this amount of slime this quickly. There has got to be some light reaching there as well for that volume to grow overnight as well.
Go with a 3 part hydro fertilize program. They will have everything the plant needs, I use Technaflora and there are several other reputable firms.
F/D stands for flood and drain. My plants sit in hydroton w/ rockwool cubes, just like yours. Water is pumped up fills the tray sits for 30 minutes then drains back down. Repeat every 3 hours. Separation of light and water is critical for this method and yours as well.
Folks tend to look at bleach as a last ditch effort. You were there bro now keep it clean. If I have an issue I run an ounce of Dr Zyme per 20 gallon. Keeps things nice and cleanAll clean. Again. View attachment 2081429

I love atlas seedsjust to follow up On the Southern Ag GFF Product - its got a 1:20 mix ratio, so 1ml to 20ml and then you use 1ml of that mix per gal - I use 5gal buckets for my plants, so ill mix up a 3 gal nutrient solution when I do a full water change ("mix and pH 1st" so your not dumping acids on your microbes) then I just add 1 ml straight out of the bottle to my 3 gal solution, I dont go thru the 1:20 mix. Haven't seen root rot in 6-7 years, no chillers and water temps are always around 70-71F. (pic is a current wk 8 auto flower "gummi bears" Atlas Seeds) #vivosun
Im not sure. I’m not top feeding anymore and the water is 2” below the cups. The air stones are at 50% capacity and there’s plenty of bubble. The roots don’t look good still.Are they getting too much water?
I had something similar and used stop rot.. I left it in the system for about 3 days and then done a complete clean out and half nutrients which was actually 1/8 nutrients as i was growing Autos .. and everything is booming now but i'm definitely going to miss out on a bit of yield .. Rot Stop is a fungicide .. I'm not sure if you have used any or where you are but i'm in Australia but i'm sure you can get it anywhere !Im not sure.

I haven’t given up, I’ll keep trying to revive these babies.
right on. Appreciate you chiming in.I had something similar and used stop rot..

I also think my PH was way to high as the water was warm .. i also got a water cooler. 5.8ph is what I'm running now and it's good.
