I will try to sum up the issues im having with a history/explanation so far..
THis is my first grow using the superponics reservoir, ive grown in soil a bunch of times but this is my first go at hydroponics and so far its been humbling to say the least. I spouted these seeds around 18 days ago in rockwool and made the mistake of putting them in the DWC system too soon, which i know realize i shouldve waited for better roots, i did it once the tap root popped out the bottom of the rockwool, and the plants were immediatley stressed even with the kind LED 36" away, as i saw the stress i correlated it to the transplant, so i moved them back out and they started to recover.
At this point they are all well rooted and cant spend anymore time in the starter cubes, some are responding very well to the move, but others not so much. I always thought leaves drooping like this were overwatering, so ive let them dry out completley before doing any top water feed, and the problem remains. I posted a bunch of pics showcasing the best and worst plants, there is no sign of discoloration except for one plant of the 16, which i posted a picture of, however some of the very new leaves have a purple tinge to them and im not sure if thats normal. I am currently running nutes at 500 PPM, which the plants seem to be responding well to (most of them). At first when i went into DWC i thought i was burning them because i started at 300PPM, so i flushed the reservior and used UC roots and PHd water and that did not fix them either. that being said i dont think overfeeding is the problem. I am really lost on what it could be at this point, other then maybe stressing them early on.
I posted pics of some healthier plants, so not all will look terrible.
Other info:
Grown from seed
PH 5.8
room temp low 80s/high 70s (has gotten to high 80s, but typicall
Humidity 45-55%
Reservior temp 70-70
Nutrients: UC roots, current culture veg a / veg b
