Plz help someone just checked on my ladies there
lime green green leaves are a lil down will post pics
after I garden a lil was thinking if I needed to add more
nutes but don't to kill my ladies since they are so young

Hey there, I know it's frustrating when nobody replies to a thread just do your best to remain patient buddy and we will get to you :grin:

I hope you don't mind I have a couple questions for you :)

1. Are they all photos?
2. Can you list what is in their current Res? EC/PPM?

Those questions will help but just by looking at them I would say that yellowing is a basic Nitrogen deficiency, upping your EC/PPM should sort out the problem, around 0.8EC (including background water EC) is good for starting autos - but I have no experience with photos. (that's why I asked question 1 :grin:)

Try not to panic brother, people will come to your aid :peace: :Sharing One:
 
Thanks pal23 I have 3 photos the rest are all autos
o have the water ph at a range between 6.2-6.5 only
thing in the water wish I added fox farms grow big but it
recommended 1/2 tea spoon per gallon I have a 30 gallon
so 15 woulda been half but I did half of 15 and put 7 teaspoons this is my 1st time don't have reservoir heard of it but really don't know what it does

P.s I don't know what ec/ppm means

Do they all share the same res? a Pic of your whole set up would be great

o have the water ph at a range between 6.2-6.5

Thats too high PH for this early stage bro, should be more like 5.5-5.6

only thing in the water wish I added fox farms grow big but it

So you've added 1/4 of recommended dosage, which is correct for autos but your photo's will want more, maybe even full dosage but I have no experience with photos as I mentioned earlier.

P.s I don't know what ec/ppm means

EC and PPM are two different ways to measure the strength of a nutrient solution. The reservoir is the bucket or container that holds the water/nutes. It really is essential, especially for new growers to equip themselves with a good PH meter and EC or PPM meter. I use something called a BlueLab Truncheon, it has both EC and PPM readings and is generally the "best" on the market.
Having these tools allows you to see exactly what the plant is being given, and exactly what she is asking for.
You can of course choose to grow without these meters but hydro can be a very tricky game, and pretty much everyone here would advise you to get a decent meter sorted asap.


I'm going to dig out a few threads for you to read through purely so I don't have to describe the whole process of hydro but I'm happy to hang around an help as best as I can, I've only done two DWC grows so I still have lots to learn myself, be back shortly :peace:
 
Threads for you to read through :peace:

DWCocha's Dragon thread, I used to read this one quite often, lot's of good info - also the guy that taught me hydro :bow::
https://www.autoflower.org/f17/dragons-dwc-under-gn-led-20421-30.html

And both of my hydro grows just in case you manage to get through all of that stuff above, I tend to explain my process in a language everyone can understand, should be good for beginners:

I really hope you get some use out of this brother, it's the fastest possible way I can think of for you to soak up the information :grin: :Sharing One:
 
Yes I can post a pic I have 6 in a 30 gallon there all in one
and I I have two 12 in airstones connected to airpump and have
cfl lighting going on and this is in a hydroponics tent 4x4x6
 
So I added sum ph down to bring it lower also made sure all roots were in water figured this might be a problem not all roots were in water here's a pic
