The plant started to suffer a bit around here - and it took me a while to work out what was going wrong. I'm updating this 3 weeks after the photo was taken, so I can say with hindsight that the buckets were letting in too much light, which stunted the root growth which in turn lead to nutrient deficiencies as the plant wasn't able to absorb enough of what I was feeding her. Heads up, the next 3 weeks of updates are kinda sad! But a good learning point for any DWC growers who make the same mistake I did. Make sure your buckets are light proof, and also be careful of light entering the bucket via the air hose!

@CRimp, Would just like to add how much I appreciate that question! I did what I could with the hose for now - I wrapped it in foil (all the hardware stores are closed in my country at the moment cause of COVID-19, so couldn't buy some tape). But it got me thinking - "What about the sides of the buckets?"... So I ran some experiments with my phone recording video from inside an empty bucket in the tent, and think that might have been a large factor! So I've put the buckets in spare buckets so most of it is two layers thick and the single-layer part is wrapped in foil to help reflect the light away from the bucket... It's not perfect, but it's a damn-side better than it was and hopefully will hold until I can make a more solid plan. So just wanna say thank you very much! Helped me a lot just with one question :) Have a good one 😎 Update: I've just added weeks 5, 6, 7 - so you can see what I was dealing with before you came in and helped "shine light" -da dum tsss- on the issue
