Yeah id put it in, but don't over do it thinking you need to play catch up, you'll just cause nute burn and damage even more, give HALF the recommended dose that it says on the bottle, they'll be fine and bounce back, tough little things

Ok mate, thanks for your constant support lol, well it says on the bottle between 250-350ml per 100ltr and iv put 110ml (res is 40ltr) so about the minimum they reccomend. Its running 1.7 EC, think thats a bit high? Could always pull 5 ltrs out and replace with water to dilute? Cant believe i forgot A and B. its been in a week now

Just realised one of my x2 air pipes was squashed so only had on air stone working. Shall i set temp to 26 on the fan controller then mate? Sits at 28 with fans on low, have intake but hardly. Shall i set it so intake always on full when lights are on. Have No fans running when lights are off at the minute either

Keep fans on 24/7
Get as much oxygen in as possible!!
You wana hope the lack of oxygen and high heat hasn't caused pythium (root rot)
Check your roots right now!
Check for smelly loose brown slimey roots

Get temps down as low as you can, be careful with intake as if it's a hot day like today 18c where i am, you will only be bringing in MORE HOT AIR which is just a problem

My fans were set at 5% when idle (light off) just ramped that up to 20% to keep more air flowing through, cant see much of the roots as there not hardly coming through the bottom yet so hard to see.

Very Tempted to cut my losses and start again

From what i can see they look fucked
Hard to tell from the pictures though mate, MIGHT be better off starting again, go dwc, alot easier to control n grow with

Possibly the slowest start iv ever had, lost the one a week ago, temps have been strady now for over a week, have about 3 long roots now through and deep into the water so hoping it takes off soon, 2 and half weeks in. Been considering scrapping and starting again but part of me wants to see if they pull through now iv committed 2 and half weeks of electric into it. Going to change the RES tomorrow and will add some multi total and maybe bit of Cal/Mag into the mix, also just started cooling the res water with ice packs to see if that helps as the water was 24/25 degrees which probably wernt helping, feels cool to touch but just put temp guage in and surprised me how warm it was.

3 weeks and 1 day in. Small progress. How long can you give before turning. Always been between 3-4 weeks. But cant see this being big enough in only 6 days. Is it OK to give them longer?

Suffering from heat stress and nute burn, less is more in hydro, try to let the plant settle, it's in shock, just keep the res temps low and the tent temps low
