I am new at this and had the same issue But I did not add any nutes as early as you. My problem was over watering I learned not to water until plants were dry. its simple pick up your plant when its wet and feel the weight. also pick up a dry pot and feel it thats when you water. At least it works for me that way. good luck

lol you know i'm doing an aerogarden grow. hey do you leave your water pump on? i have mine set for 24 hour what do you have yours set on?
leave it on, i dont care what they say. my plug came out and i didnt notice for half a day, they all started droopping. i have no airstone, the constant water trickling through puts oxygen in the water. i have only changed my water once too. roots are going great guns, bout as thick as 2 to 3 fingers.

i got my lights, im a wank, i bought the cool daylight not the warm white, will be taking them back in the morn.

happy growing hun

alright m8. the yellowing could be down to overwatering or nutes? im using an nft hydro setup witch im ment to leave the pump running 24/7 but my plants are still young so the pump only comes on for half hour every day at the mo! when they get a little bigger i will leave it on. but for now i would just cut back on the water and see how it goes! good luck.

i noticed last night that my pump had stopped, so its not 24/7. what setting are you on, im on salad. what a great salad it will be lol.

i got some lights, having a prick of a time finding fittings. so i'm using all the desk lamps i can find in the house. please flower soon, i cant take it anymore.

also been looking at seeds for the next grow, like the look of a few, now i'm finding that most dont ship to aus. really think we should move to amsterdam lol, it sucks here.
