Make sure to
Stronger dose of the MAGiCAL technaflora. It was the first problem I came across. Only affected the first two leaves
if you have the $ and time look at getting advanced nutrients revive its pretty cheap , I've heard good things about it saving crops, you simply use water and the product only. For a week I believe? Could be worth a shot to get you back on track since you're about half way through veg stage.

I'll look into it. Thanks

Roots make me think your reservoir temps are warm?

Any snot or mucus on air lines, roots, or lining of reservoir?

ime change the reservoir more often than not, even if it's 1-2 times per week. It beats battling pyth snot.

No snot that I have notice so far. Just changed the res yesterday. I'll periodically check the res temps today. Every time I check its in the high 60s. I'll see what happens today

If it hits 68 I'd dump it and start it again.
Has your PH drifted really bad at all or bad drought? I see those weird light green patches, I see those usually after severe drought or crazy ph swings. They will typically go dry and brittle at those spots.

It's funny that you mention that the spots you are referring too came out of no where while I was changing the res yesterday. That new batch ph was off a little but was quickly drop back to 6

Some do frozen bottles of water, exchange them in and out throughout the day as needed. Just toss the solid bottle into the res, when it thaws out, replace it.

Some use a water chiller.

The easy method for me is to just dump and replace the res when temps rise.

Looks like I have soapsuds around the parameter of the reservior. What does that indicate? Temp ad 63

Well they don't look completely trashed, roots are darker at the end, I'm feeling like res if getting a little too high, also I can see cal-mag issue, and I think I see a phosphorus issue creeping up, could be wrong.
But if root rot is happening that badly could reduce your plants nutrient uptake. Get the roots in check. Use hydrogen peroxide until hydro guard comes in.
That's all you can do for now.

I agree. I topped off the res and got the level about to inches from net cup this morning. The top leafs picked up and looked vigorous. Checked it again tonight and the top leafs dropped again and it took about 3 gallons of water to get within 2 inches of the net cups again. Obviously they are pretty thirsty. That's a good sign I hope.
