Any idea what's going on here? Droopy plants

[JP12345]

DWC / pH 5.7 / EC 0.64 / Maxibloom and Liquid Silicon / Res temps = in good range / 20 days in reservoir

Here's how they look now after a daytime rally where I thought everything was going to be fine - they looked back to normal. As the day's gone on though, they've started to wilt again...

Could be:

- Lack of enough light

- Underfeeding (I'm using Maxibloom (only) and Liquid Silicon.)

- Root rot (although roots aren't slimy to the touch and I changed res today)

- Cold shock (I've had to use ice bottles over last week and a bit because of the heatwave)

Looks like your roots are a little brown. Do you use nutes that would stain them this color? If not, you've got some root problems.

see those light leaks where the blue tubing comes in? not good.

What do you suggest to counteract that? I’ve read that using blue tubing is the best colour to use (GrowDoctor)

black tubing always. and you can buy small rubber grommets that will make it light proof when you run the tubing thru it. drill a hole, put the grommet in, then run tubing.
