take your EC down to 0.4 mate, my TD in DWC also got burnt at that kinda age and it was def from nutes. fresh batch of very weak nutes and the growth became explosive. I wouldnt go as high as 0.8 until they have at least 5-6 internodes.

I was thinking this but wanted advice before I change the res tonight. My only problem is the starting point of my ec .42! Also I went for .8ish as that's what Seymour did with the td! Do you think I should still add a small amount of nutes maybe up to .5?
Hey greenie! That's a nice set-up and a great choice of beans!
I have so very limited knowledge of DWC and absolutely no experience, so I'll refrain from trying to give you any tips on things DWC. But the way I read what you said, you haven't any air circulating in there? You don't have your fans on? Is that right? Not good, friend. Make a little wind.
I love these TD's, so I'm hangin' out here with you. Big Green Karma on the way...

I've got a clip on fan circulating air, and I'm leaving the door open to let fresh air in during the evening. The reason I've not switched my ruck on yet is because the high humidity can damage the carbon filter and I need it to work with the stinky ak47 genetics of td!! I hope you're right about karma!!
Hey buddy. How close do you have that beast of an LED? It looks like you have some bleaching going on, I just had a problem with this(non LED) but I know LEDs are somewhat troublesome on that.
I know all about bleaching as my last light was destroying my plants. I'm only running this at a third of the power at the moment which is 135watts plus it's 120cm above the plants. The recomendations for the light are above 100cm.
upp your feeds, they look like they aint getting enough , i cant remeber the background ec of your water but if your using formulex you want to be hitting around 1.0ec with 60ml of rhizitonic added in aswell
your net basket looks massive compared to mine, have you got the water level high enough to give the roots feed ? also have the roots made it outside the basket yet and into the res ?
id also be running a cal/mag suppliment aswell like sensi cal @ 6ml in every res change, plants suffer mag/cal def under l.e.d

My starting ec is just over .4 I originally thought that I could go a bit higher with formulex but was starting to think maybe I'm burning them. I have about 2 or 3 inches from the cube to the bottom of the net pot. Both now have roots in the res and the red is filled to just above the bottom of the netpot. I'll look in to getting some calmag.
yeah get cal mag and up that feed to 1.2 ec, i know i said 1.0 in my previous post but i was airing on the side of caution cause i didnt know your background ec, you have the same background ec as me
1.2 ec of formulex and 60ml or rhizotonic and if you get a cal/mag suppliment run that at 6ml per res change and you should be good to grow
i keep the plants on formulex for the 1st 2 weeks with 60ml of rhizo on the 3rd week drop the rhizo down to 30ml and switch them to aqua vega @ 1.0ec, or you can keep them on formulex for a 3rd week if you want
obviously your the grower so you get to choose how you wanna go about feeding your plants im just giving you some freindly advice
good luck with the grow and if you need any help dont be afraid to ask :thumbs:
