Rooted clones upper leaf veins are getting lighter every day. I have 12 plants and over half are showing the same symptoms. Nurient lockout? PH in Res is 5.9. I cannot find a photo anywhere of a sick plant that looks like this . All the ones I have found have dark veins and the leaf in between the veins turns lighter.
Has anyone out there seen there plant do this?

Looks completely normal. The plant is using available nutrients to create roots.

Keep the rootzone clean and you will not have any problems. Foliar feed kelp meal or use IBA-K and/or NAA solutions either as foliar or directly in the reservoar. Remember that IBA and NAA will inhibit flowering with temperatures over 10 degrees Celcius.

Other way around if you for example soak seeds in NAA solutions and plant them in early spring right after frost has gone, that will promote early flowering.

IBA-K and NAA is for vegetative growth. I use kelp up intill the 3rd weekend of flowering and almost always use BAP(benzylaminopurine) on established plants at about 50ppms before going in till flowering. BAP will most certain stress the plant initially and they will need a couple of days to recover. Never spray sickly looking plants with BAP.

I'm also very intrested in Ethephon and what the addition of ehtylene would contribute with. BAP help to develop lateral buds at a faster phase than normal, ethylene will do the same things and more.

Any success? I got BAP n Ethephon from ebay. Ethephon came in 2 10ml at 40% concentration from Taiwan. Apparently I need to buy lye for BAP to dissolve.

You could also use potassium hydroxide. If you got concentrated pH up. Try dissolving with that. My current run I'm only using Triacontanol. It's beyond me why more people aren't using it. Probably it's a result of bad PR. Most people don't have patience to educate themselves about PGR's.

I do have thanks!
Ha same here.
There are some studies you can easily find online.
The measurements are not always displayed though.

I brew alfalfa meal 1 cup/gallon with an airstone for a day or two until the PPMs rise and I feed/spray it time to time. I'm not sure if it's working, or my skills are getting better because I experience less stretch now.

Tria is natural, so is ethylene, Ga3, Salicylic acid, all the crap in kelp extract, etc but i researched and it seems BAP is simple synthetic that's safe.

I just started experimenting with GA3 100ppm (helps seeds germ better), and Salicylic acid (.3g/gal to increase plant sar, thricomes/terpenes?).

Trying to figure out Ethephon and when it will show a difference in flower since i aint got much it seems.
