I transfer these Gordon to hydroton a little early. The nutes are alright. I was flood five times a day slowed to 2 times seems way better. Any other thoughts? Using bonicare grow, hydrogaurd, cal and mag.

Easier to start them in cups of perlite or perlite/verm and transplant when bigger. Perlite and verm brushes off pretty easy

Yer I'd flush your res and start over with plain water pH downed. Only start adding nutes when you have decent roots going. Look for the side branching on the roots to begin, if it's mainly just the tap root. They look pretty fresh. I'd keep a humidity dome on those guys till the roots set too. Old take away containers are perfect domes.IMG_20200209_125011.jpg

Algae needs light to grow so cover your rockwool with something dark and plastic.
As others have said, lower your nutes. 200ppm.
