Wings Roommate watched plant towards the end of this week, seeing a little bit of yellowing on the tip of one of the original leaves. I was using the same nutrient solution all week and PH got a little bit high. Just replaced solution going into week 2. Still have not figured out how to use the EC meter.

Wings Day 8- returned to my plant, there is a dead part on one of my original leaves, I am hoping this is due to the old nutrient solution. PH'd the old solution (a week old) and it was only a bit higher than acceptable (using a chemical, not pen, to check).
Day 9 - Did a bad thing and transplanted into a larger pot. This may screw up my plant, it was my first time transplanting and I was a bit rough, we will see. I was working on getting a Raspberry Pi irrigation system set up and wanted to move it out of the cup into a larger pot where I could water it automatically. I have now abandoned this idea and am moving to Tropf blumats for fertigation. Also learned how to use "EC meter", turns out I want TDS in ppm. Currently feeding 600ppm nute cocktail. The plant is looking a bit yellow around the edges of the older leaves, hoping this is just me over analyzing as it is a pretty green yellow. Ultimately decided to put a clear tupperware on top of the plant to try to keep humidity relatively high, moved light down a bit as the tupperware is slightly opaque.
Day 9.5 - Noticed some yellowing on the tips of my new growth about 8 hours after feeding with 600ppm nutes. Lowered ppm to 400 and flushed plant with new solution. 600ppm was way too high for a seedling. I also have chosen to adopt Dr. Cocos feed chart, as I noticed that the GH trio bottle was having me put equal parts Micro and Bloom during veg stage. This is not ideal. Was doing 5ml/gal of Micro, Gro and Bloom.
Day 10 - Plant seems healthy, still feeding the 1:1:1 ratio nutes at 400 ec. Finally finished my controller, working on a daughterboard for the pi so I can get rid of those wires.
Day 11- plant looks dope, I wish I had a fan though, the stalk is very thin.
Day 12 - all gucci, feeding new nute cocktail at 400ec, following NER suggested in Dr. Coco's feedchart
Day 13 - Mag deficiency emerged, treated with epsom salt foliar. Improved drainage system as well. Upped nute cocktail to 650ppm, switched to new feed chart.
Day 14 - plant looks good, fell over last night but has recovered.
Hey dude and welcome to the community! They are nothing to worry about really, sometimes they fall off sometimes they don't. What I would worry about is giving nutrients so early because you can see its already damaging the plant (the yellow leaf tips) I would hold off for one more week on nutes and then start to add little by little. As we say on the kitchens, "you can always add but can't take away"
Wings Day 14 - added blumats last night as I am going away for the weekend. They seem to work wonderfully and went through all of the nute solution I added to the rez last night
Day 16- Blumats seem to be working, struggling to adjust them properly.
Day 16 - Leaving! Hope she survives
Day 18 - Got update pic from roommate, looks good!
Day 21 - back, struggling with blumats. I can't tell if im under or over watering or what. Not a fan
Day 22 - Plant has perked up a bit

Wings Day 26 - Plant is growing really big. It's super dense. N deficiency has been reduced. Feeding 750ppm nutes with an occasional epsom foliar spray.
Day 27 - Leaves not drooping as much
Looking good so far! I run a pretty similar set up, with my Blue Dream'Matic a few weeks further along, and I would be happy to help out if you run into any issues or have any questions. Good luck! 🌱👍
