Nitrogen starts yellowing at the bottom, if you have abnormal growth or yellowing on new growth it would be calmag.

I can't see it clear on the photo. Make sure the PH pen is calibrated, also take a look at the new growth after you added the Calmag

Most likely nitrogen deficiency. I know nothing about hydro though, feed needs increasing if it's draining the leaves. It's basically eating itself to survive

Yellowing 1st set of leaves
Hello, I'm on Day 11 from seed in Coco/perlite using dry Amendments. My girls are yellowing from centre out and have been stuned a few days now. I'm under the assumption it's over-watering. I've air rated, dropped humidity to 45-50%RH. Am I on the right path?

drooping leaves, cold weather and high humidity, is it overwater problem?
I think i´ve overwatered my plants, so it´s is cold (16 C / 60 F) and relative humidity around 70%-75% . old leaves are turning yellow. I´ve lowered the water frequency and wait the soil to dry before water again but leaves are still droopy. What do you think? is it overwater?

Am I taking the correct steps?
I think this is due to a combination of overwatering (1l per 24 h in 60% Light-Mix, 30% coco, 10% perlite) and possibly overfeeding (used close to recommended dosage). I have let her dry out for almost 2 days and today watered 0.5 l plain water ph-ed to 6.5. What do you think?

New growth is very bright green. Just introduced an in-line UV filter to help combat and bacteria in system. Also just turned on the Co2 system and got it up to 850ppm. Why is new growth so bright green? Could Co2 do this?
