the stem is not growing straight, is somewhat curved and has a violet color, is this due to some deficiency or is it normal? The plants have 4 days, [I have 2 in the same rockwood but it's just for the moment, I'm waiting to receive more hydroponic to move them to their own DWC
Both plant have the same time,one of them is growing perfect but the another one is growing slow and I don’t understand why the color is appearing on the leaves, the pH is fine and the nutrients are well measured..
Hello @Asvpxpridy ! You need to lower you PH . The PH needs to be around 5.5 at this stage. Also when using synthetic fertilizers ( especially at hydro ) you need to check the EC of the nutrients solution. Your EC at this stage needs to be at 0.8 ms/cm. Correct those to things and you will see huge difference. Happy growing ! 👊
Hi @Asvpxpridy! I see 2 mistakes here, first your pH is almost neutral whereas it needs to be slightly acidic (between 5.3~5.8). Secondly you're giving too much nutrients to this young autoflowering baby. I guess you're following the manufacturer's schedule but you should start with 1/4 of what they recommend since you're growing ruderalis-related plants. Do you check your EC/ppm? I highly recommend to get an EC-meter for hydroponic setups. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊
Hi i just will do an addition to the answer to make you understand the PH- Range...https://www.growweedeasy.com/ph/#hydroponic-soilless-pH... i think pictures say more than thousand words.. the range is needed that the plant can soak the Nutrients , In hydo its better to let lthe range between5.5to 6.5
and not to adjust on one point. If you let the range " FLOW" the plant gets all the nutes that she needs. Hope i could help you .. greetings

@Asvpxpridy, it's going to be very interesting in seeing how you split them, you don't put multiple plants in the same pot, especially in the same piece of rockwool
Hi ! I think you're mistaking a bit on the ph , your ph pen shows 6.48 but at that stage the Ph should be between 5.5 to 5.8 as 5.8 is the "sweet spot" in hydro/coco grow. The 6.5 ph range is most for the end of flowering to offer a better absobtion of the P (phosphorus) and K (potasium). It is still the good time to switch to the good ph range. Hope it will help you 😁👍
Hi there ! Can you tell us what is your EC/Ppm level please !? At that stage the feeding should be light , take it easy : you don't want to burn them ! 😊
