Why so strong with the nutes? Thats about as high as some people go with a full grown plant in flower.

Just run plain ph'd water for a day. I'd cut that nute mix in half and work my way up once the plant bounces back.

Seedlings will have a hard time trying to handle 1.4 ec (980ppm).

what if i told you that the plant in the picture was 30 days after germ. Isn't this really small?? I know i stunted there growth early on cause i didnt give it any nutes...not even root stim...that was the fisrt week after germ...i fixed that and they improved after two weeks i put them in the top feed hydro system....fed them with house and garden nutes at 1.0 ec looked great....my ec went up to 1.2 within the first week due to ph down solution then up to 1.4ec....its at the end of the 2nd week in the hydro system....they stopped growing looked like this and formed alge on the root cubes...i covered the cubes more thouroughly and i got physan alge remover....i applied that as well as taking your advice...am i totally screwed?? any other tips would be great...thanks!

You're not screwed...Just set back some. Most plants will recover. Get nutes designed for hydroponics....It'll make things easier.

Try General Hydroponics....You can order some online if you don't have a hydro shop nearby. It's alot easier controlling ph using GH.

House/Garden aqua flakes.......not so much.
