Week 5 in a ebb and flow bucket system. Feeding every 2 hrs in hydroton at 950ppm when lights on. I just turn my quantum boards down because some of the plants were showing light burn I believe. I just went down into my room and one plant has drooping leaves that look to me to be under watered. Should I up the feeding schedule?

Does look underwatered to me. I don't grow in E&F. But thats what the plants say. Hydroton doesn't hold moisture like rockwool or other media so I would say its very likely thats the issue. I dont see an issue if the flood times are short why you couldn't flood a fair bit more often like every hour for 10 min. May even need a cylce or 2 at night because of the media. Again though I do not grow in F&D. Just my thoughts
Actually they were under watered. I just discovered the 3/4 fill fittings in the buckets with the larger plants we plugged. The smaller plants that were not blocked are beautiful. I fixed the problem. Now the water is making it almost to the top of the hydroton
