Ran a nutrient solution of .4ec 5.8ph through the coco until Inflow ec matched outflow ec. Placed seeds into coco.

All seeds break coco.

I noticed slight light green color on new growth so I bumped the nutes to 1.0ec. The picture is from after watering today.

Day 11
I noticed some purple coloration on the leaves. My light is 36-40 inches away from the plants. Running it at 200 watts. I can adjust the spectrum on the SolarSytem 550 currently running 60% white 60% blue and 30% red. Not sure if that has anything to do with the coloring or if the light is too close at 36-40 inches. Also my last watering was at 1.0ec 5.8ph, 5ml Veg A, 5ml Veg B. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks dudes!

Weird, when my dad pops seeds or gives me cuts they always have purple patches on their leaves just like yours. When they get to me, they "green-up" again. Can't figure it out. Hasn't been an issue though.

I speculate it's his lighting

Lights out.
Finally able to get the humidity up.
Trying to stay within an acceptable vpd range.
Raised the light a little bit as well.

Day 12
One of 7 has developed a yellow spot on the 3rd leaf set down from the top. Anyone have any idea what could cause it(pic below)? Everything else is looking okay. I did notice on a couple of the plants the center of the leaf almost domed out, it can be pushed in or out. Not sure what causes that. Will deff be back filling the ones that stretched come transplant time. Thanks dudes!

Do you guys suggest doing anything about the color on these? They seem a little lighter than they should be. All 7 are this color. Not sure if it's anything to worry about or not. Thanks dudes!

Day 15
All plants were watered today. Bumped my base nutes today from 6ml's to 7ml's the ec went from 1.2 to 1.4. Noticed one plant was a little droopy today before I watered(circled in red), guessing it could be because I wasn't watering enough. Also noticed on my smallest plant one of the leaves grew out a little mutated(circled in red). Anything to worry about there? Here is today after watering all 7:
Inflow: 1.4ec 5.8ph
Outflow:1.3ec 5.6-5.7

Hey Urijah,

How's the grow going? I'm interested in seeing your results. I'm running 2 x 550 CLW SS with the controller as well. My results so have not been the best but then again it's 1 grow with these lights and my 2nd grow in total so I'm guessing the issues I faced are self inflicted lol. Anyways all the best with it ill be following along as you post. Look forward to seeing more updates. HG :weed:
