Hi @Urbanrdwc I would start a new thread for advice so people know to look. To me it looks like a root issue or environment. When you start a new thread post as much info as you can and include root pictures if possible. If you tag me so I don't forget I can try to help you

When did you transplant and why?

These nutrients do best with RO water. Do not add cal mag and do not ph adjust them. Do not add anything to them at all.

Fuck I hate those nutrients lol. So many issues when not used properly.

Start them in the net pot you are going to finish them in.

Free the roots. Ditch the netpots.

Back off on your lights and feed only a weak mix and wait, they are in shock which causes the metabolism to stop so all kinds of issues can happen .

The aim is to get them to adjust and start feeding, then you can put the peddle down, normally in a medium it takes about 10 days to 2 wks to fully recover after any form of shock, in DWC usually its a faster recovery . Me Id just back off and nurse them for a few days, the old leaf wont heal but new growth will be perfect.

Perfect advice for any other nutrients. Needs to run 400ppm min to keep the ph in check with these nutrients. Ph perfect is if I haven't said it yet my number 1 hated nutrient line. I actually swore to never post on it again. I absolutely hate it. The only way it works is ppm over 400 and under 800 with nothing else added and ideally with RO water. If you do that... You would never know it wasn't a great nutrient.

I mean it is perfect for what it's designed for add nutrients to RO water, watch plants grow and do regular water changes... Bout as simple as it gets and it works like that. Add something to it or try to ph adjust it and 9/10 you got issues

Wjat type of notes u use

Honestly I'm just bagging on them. They are the simplest nutrient to use for a new grower. They will get the job done well if you don't mess with em.

I use mega crop version 1, can't buy it anymore. V2 has issues, v3 is apparently good again??

Jacks is a good option, there are many good options.

Ph perfect works great for new growers and you will have far less issues than using other nutrients. IF you DON'T mess with it and only do water changes.

The issues is we all learn about ph control and ppm and additives and like to tweak things so you will get advice saying you ph is to high adjust it etc etc and that will screw your nutrients up. So it's not that it's bad it just very foreign to traditional nutrients and the advice is very different.

It will go up depending on the source of acid.

Do not ph adjust those nutrients bro. I can't stress it enough

@Urbanrdwc do yourself a favor. Go give everything you have except the ph pen and ph perfect nutrients to someone who will not give them back until your grow is over.

The ph pen is only used to check for major ph issues in which you will do a complete res change with fresh nutrients and then wait.

Can you please start a help thread so we stop clogging this one up.
