@Wisher2 as you know i'm having a go at running your SIP-style tray setup for rooted clones. Take a look at some pics here...
This tray is Blackjack and they were doing very well until some leaf curl was noticed 48hrs ago and they seem to have gotten worse. Some leaves have started losing color and growth has slowed.
- - - Temps high 70's, humidity = mid 50's (sharing veg room)
- - - Tray is loaded with GH trio + CalMag + Hydroguard + Silica Blast, 0.4EC + pH5.5.
Cloned on 9/22 and into these cups around 10 days ago. Roots starting to grow out of the slits at the bottom. I was having issues with a translucent mucus forming at the same slits, but that has lessened since I top fed a bennie tea.

Right next to them in a separate tray, the Larry OG clones, cut at the same time and into cups at the same time, together with identical room conditions + feed.
These are also rooting out the bottom of the cups so they are well established here.
I had a lot of early upward growth and not much foliage, leaves were yellowing much quicker and purple stems on new growth. I figured Mg deficiency which seems unlikely since i'm adding CalMag, but in any case I topped up with a little epsom 48hrs ago. No improvement so perhaps it is being locked out?
pH is fine so may be overfed at 0.4EC (although this OG family is notoriously hungry), so I halved this to 0.2EC. Again, no improvement.
Perhaps they are in fact being underfed?? Seems unlikely since some of those tips are burning.
Leaf droop seems consistent with overwatering, but as I understand it this should not be a concern with SIP, right? Water line is about 1/2" inch up the cups and regularly topped off.
Whichever way the Larry is proving to be a fussy eater - the mature ones in veg aren't where I want them to be either: lanky, with thin foliage and slow growth.
I'd love to hear what you make of this since you're a champion of this system and turned me on to it!
**the very yellow leaves you can see i'm not too concerned about as these are old fans that fed them whilst rooting**
