hi i have one question and i ask that everyone who sees this does not ignore it..i am growing hydroponic tomatoes and have been having problems..To start, one day when i came home i noticed that the bottom leaves were yellowing. i let it go for a few days because i believed it was simply a normal thing that had to happen.after a while i noticed that the yellowing was climbing up the plant. i diagnosed this as a nitrogen deficiency. I took some schultz 10-15-10 liquid plant food and added about 5 drops out the recommended 7 drops per quart of water to my reservoir...okay i added the nutrients last night and now my plant is extremely weak and is wilting..can someone please tell me whats up.Btw my reservoir is about 1 and a half gallons of water..Thanks

If you added nutrients and the plant is getting worse it might be an overdose, you can try flushing it and seeing if it helps

if it is not too late

@mr.red. thats the thing thats confusing me, i have been going through this cycle of yellow leaves then wilt...when i flush the leaves turn yellow. when i add a nutrient solution with a lower dosage it wilts??? i dont understand what the plant wants from me...though i read on the internet somewhere, that a plant that has a nitrogen deficiency can easily wilt with stress.maybe everytime i add nutes it shocks her???anyway thanks for your reply..please help me solve my problem guys..Thanks

ph should b like 5.5-5.8
also 1 ounce of hydrogen peroxide per gallon will do you alot of good.
Also if you have any super thrive 1-3 drops per gallon as well.
