Looks like a mag deficiency to me but that's pretty common in coco.

I like Hydrologics filters. Some of the warehouses I worked at used their Evolution 1000 model with UV for water borne pathogens.

I like the way you layed out all the controls. Nice and clean.

Welcome. Nice automation. Looks like pH or root zone issues. Are you allowing slight dry back in the coco at lights off? I say slight because if you allow coco to dry too much and too frequently you’ll experience pH swings in the media.

May ask why 24 and not 18/6? No timer or wanting to slow growth rates down?

I guess that’s how I was taught. I’m assuming 18/6 is better?

If your plant is receiveing the appropriate DLI during its light cycle (light have adequate intensity) the 18/6 will let the plants rest as well as save you money on your electric bill, as well as run time on your equipment
