I think I should start over.

I check ph 3 times a day because it rises. I never had to check ppm. I did it today to evaluate how much its eating. I've never seen it drop so fast! I'll start adding mixed nutes. I topped up with water because more was evaporating than it was drinking before. It's the complete opposite now. I used to top up about 1/4 a gallon a day last week. I'm approaching 2 gallons a day. It's insane.
I check my EC and PH everyday religiously, when there going through the res quickly I normally have a bucket mixed up with full strength nutes and a bucket with plain water so I can top off to my desired EC

No one got back to me about the yellow leaves. Do they still look yellow? Or was my light making it look yellowed than it is?
Yeah they still look a little yellow to me, nothing major though just up your base nutes a bit but dont go crazy they will green up pretty quickly but its fucking almost impossible to get rid of N tox

I will do that. I have 2 buckets with plain water I collect from my RO. I'll make one a nutrient one.

I also ordered this today, if its going to eat like that I need bette monitoring so I ordered this. It's cheap Chinese crap but the brand names are expensive for me right now.

Does that constantly sit in the res? Just check the calibration is good regularly if it's cheap Chinese.

This is the cheap crap people grow here. I'm sick of smoking it. What happend was 10 years ago I wanted to quit smoking cigarettes and pot. I got a vaporizer and it sucked with local pot. So I tried to grow some outside. They sucked, it's cold here and short summers. I got like a few ounces of 7 plants lol. So I did indoor. I got fungus gnats in my house and the pot was not that much better than local stuff. So i went hydro with GH. I fucked up the first grow but pulled through. Pot was already better than anything local. The try after that went much better and the store gave me voodoo to try. To me it looked like it worked like magic. So i got some more AN products and i loved it. I got a massive harvest with huge buds and so many Crystals. I smoke about a gram or 2 a day. That stuff lasted me forever in a vape. Then wife got pregnant and I couldn't grow no more. I am divorced and kiddo is 10 now, it's legal, I have bedroom with it's own bathroom, and that bathroom has a walk in closet. I grow in there.

So your buying weed ATM? If so even more reason to get this plant into flower, if you continue feeding veg nutes through transition you should be able to green her up I reckon, I would probably just flip if I didnt have any full jars!

Yeah I am buying shit weed. I'm sick of it. I want to grow again because no one here grows good stuff. They don't flush it right, dont dry it right, they dont believe in curing. Its shit honestly and it barely gets me high just fills my lungs with shit.

I wanted to flower earlier but I had root rot and constand problems. I was told to wait to clone and flower till I have a healthy plant. Well it looks healthy now. It's only a week of health but I'll switch to flower tomorrow morning.

My clones seem ok but it's only day 2.

Ok.. so following what their mixing numbers for 5 liters are this is what their food looks like in 9 liters so this is diluted lol. My water volume is 16 liters total so itll be diluted more. These mix numbers are nuts. It seems way too much lol. Ppm reading of the mixture is 573. I'm going to recheck it tomorrow before dumping it. I also did not adjust the ph. Its 5.2 and I'll see what it says tomorrow morning.

I included a picture of what my plant looks like by the end of day. It starts to wilt like this at 8, tomorrow it will perk up again before the light comes on and then really pick up after that. I'm getting mixed search results saying it's normal, or too much light. I don't have my light meter yet so I have no idea. It won't do that in flower because the lights go out before it gets tired like that, or so I am hoping.

Anyway timer is set from 6a to 6pm. I deployed the UVB lights on a timer from 11 to 1. That's 2 hours mid day to make it produce more yummiest without hindering growth. Or so my research says. Haha.

Let's see how this goes down lol. Oh the bloom part I did 1/2 and grow the other 1/2 to get some N in there since you guys think it is yellow.

Just an update for today. The plant was a little wilty in the morning before the lights went on. I found that odd but it started picking up again when lights came on. I was going to try and dump the hydroton but chickened out. There's roots all over it and I cant see myself not making things worse. Here are some pics. Not sure what order the upload shuffles them to I tried to upload in order but it seems to mix them.
dude ya plant is starving

Also helps to run a cycozyme or a mycrobial in a dwc
I did have root rot and pieces of root were in the water. I also cut a chunk out with rot I couldn't get rid of. It was breaking roots so I chopped it. I certainly do think roots are rebuilding. They have grown like mad. I did use microbes. Great white and piranha, tarantula and voodoo. Also sensyzyme. The overheating got the rot and none of that helped after till I finally cut bad roots and sanitized it in strong chlorine and h2o2. I finally won I think because it is growing like mad. It swallowed up 4 gallons, 2 of them today and about 500ppm of food. I added more food today and mixed a flowering batch with some growth food to keep it from being hungry for N.
