Hey guys, I am sad that my first post on here has to be to ask for help on a problem, but never the less.
My 2 week old from germ autofem short rider plant is showing signs of a mix of slight disscoloration on leaves (only visible in certian light) and a slight claw at the tips.
This is my first grow and I am growing in a 5gal DWC bucket in a 10 inch netpot. My light source is a 96x3w LED reflector light.
I recently added the nutrients and had slightly raised the water level approx 1-2 in above the bottom of the netpot for a day or 2. My thoughts being since the 10in netpot is so deep, the plant would need help actually getting to the water.
After noticing the clawing I imidiately thought that I may have accidently added too much of the nutes (added at 1/2 strength for flora grow trio) specifically when a bit extra of the micro spilled into the bucket over my tsp... as it is the one with the high nitrogen levels i suppose the clawing is to be expected...
I have since diluted the bucket and re phd to 5.5 at 310ppm, and dropped the water level to about .5-1in below the netpot so the bubbles splash the botom.
I guess my questions are: should I try to flush out the root system a bit if the remaining excess nitrogen or should I leave it to avoid overwatering?
Do I need to wory about this situation stunting the growth of this little tranny and ruining the vegatative growth before it's internal clock says its time to start flowering?
Should I invest in some cal/mag due to this being a LED grow?
