My DWC sprout is already looking kinda sick. It's still pretty small to start adding nutrients to the mix but the leaves are already pretty darn yellow. Should I try a little bit of nitrogen? And if that isn't the problem what might be?
Solved
Leaves. Color - Yellow

hydro requires ntrients in the solution at all times. you my want a lower concentration the first week or so, but the best concentrations for soilless/hydro are not high concentrations to start. They are generally safe levels even for younger plants when done right. So, if you are restricting nutrients, that is at least 1 cause of the slow growth observed. you shouldn't 'try a bit of nitrogenn' ... in soilless/hydro you provide 100% of the nutrition at all times. You may need a slightly different formula at various points, but day-to-day mad scientis is not required. whatever source you're using for information is suspect. You need a better foundation of knowledge

There’s nothing more humbling than being a sick plant back to life. Find out what’s wrong, most likely ph or temps being it’s DWC, don’t start making 100 changes, one thing then wait. I would check your ph first. Lower your temps with frozen bottles of water

Hi my Friend, Water is a dead medium, if you grow in dwc, coco or other dead mediums, you have to use nutrients every time! Use a ec meter to check the amount of nutrients and a ph meter, for the right ph. Then your plant will run 👍😊

Hi with dwc your best using nutes really early on, not an overly strong mixture, this is because your water won't have enough nutrition in it for the plant to use. Search for Dwc diaries that use the same nutes your planning on using to get a quite of what amounts and when to use them.

What is the light intensity you use? Plants at this stage shouldnt look like this. You migfht wanna check your ph, which might cause a blocking of nutrients.
