Hard to imagine 16" roots with plants that small. I keep my water level within 1/2" of the net pot.

Do the rockwool cubes feel wet to the touch? Either way, need to see pics of the roots.

You can cover up the rockwool with more rocks,wilting hydro plants is normally a root issue.

That’s what every thing Iv read says I just can’t figure it out there’s lots new root growth no smell no algae no brittleness no slime my ppm is 180 which I know is on the low side Could that cause the leaf issues? Just puzzles me because there like the perfect shade of green

Did you just add cold water?

Double check your ph meter bump ph up to 6.0 and you have to check it often for swings , bump up the ppms to 250, the cold water for 12 hours could of stressed them bump that up to 70-72 degrees

add a product called hydroguard at half strength of what it says on the container.

kush plants are normally a droopy kind of plant.

The other question is with this being week 3 and then being autoflowers is there any hope that they will do anything?
