Ok so about 3 or 4 days ago I was putting nutrients in my hydyoponics system and poured it on my plant. Instantly it leaned to the the side so I builr it up with the clay peebles. About 2 days ago I was checking on it and it broke and its still growing jus turning yellow on tips. Plant is about 3 weeks old someone help

straight nutes from the bottle or diluted in the res water. either way not good for a 3 week old, but the weaker the solution the better, should have rinsed it off, with tap water. be patient cannabis is quite resilient.

In general, you do not want to add full strength nutes to the res. You want to dilute the nutes BEFORE getting the solution near the plants. I mix my solution in a 1 quart/liter pail to the strength I want, then move it to the plant res.

A 3 week old needs VERY little nutes. No more than 300ppm. That's about 1/10 strength from what's on the bottle for some nute systems.

Hopefully your seedling will make it. If not, you'll have only lost about a month in your overall grow schedule when you start again. Good luck!
