I don't know what to do now...

I had an algae problem and cleaned that up
I had water temp issues, got that straight
Now they are slowly dying!

I'm confused because it looks like nute burn and deficiency. This is my first grow and Im in a battle here.

I use SH pre-measured nutes and I have been giving them 1/4 strength because I tried 1/2 strength and they started declining by the hour.

Here are the pics

there locked out and not getting any N looks like to me.Ive had algea and its nasty shit you have to SCRUB EVERYTHING even your airlines and stones and pumps you have to bleach it ALL the lids the tubs I mean everything bro.you might have root rot from the algea if it was on your roots.I rinse mine in luke warm or a lil cooler tap water as the chlorine helps kill the algea and add hydrogen peroxide to your water for a week or so and they will come back.mine did.but it took a week then they were fine but if the roots are brown the you have to cut the real bad ones off and then new ones will grow.also what caused my algea was light getting in my water and my temps running high so get your water cool and cover the whole top with foil is wat i did and now no problems anymore.good luck heres a pic of what i had to do

yeah you need to bump up your nutes to half strength imo. that is N deficiency; lime green plant, yellowing to dieing lower leaves. if the algea is still there then add a lot of 35% h202 to your tank. you roots will turn white and be clean and very healthy.

The algae is back.Add the h202 35% grade at 80:1 every 4 days to prevent this happening.

they are N deficient, but your right john...you have to fix what is causing the lockout before you feed it any N right now you can feed her all day and will still decline, because you havent fixed the hidden culprit...algae
