Yeah thats what it looks like to me, as well. Either lock-out from wonky ph or a straight up deficiency. It gets out of control quickly and can really mess up yield. I can testify to that.

Growing in my shed and temps have been in the low 70s but my space heater shut off and when I went in there today it was 48. Not sure how long it was off for but no more than 24 hours. Will this stunt growth? They're 6 weeks into veg

You in soil jdub? If so, that is not my area of knowledge. I run strictly hydro and know next to nothing about soil plants except how to kill them. Lol i will dig around and see if i can find anything while you wait for others to pitch in their knowledge.

DWC Hydro setup
Seedling was in solo cup for 8 or 9 days before transfered to DWC.
Layer of pebbles and then the root/stem
Water level is above basket giving lots of hydration with no top feed
Transplanted the plant to DWC 5 days ago. This is what she looked like
5 days later she is no bigger..she is alive and the stem seems strong as she holds herself uo
Under the 1st set of leaves are the original 2 that sprouts. Thry are turning yellow now.
This is the after shot 5 days later
Water is pH 5.9
Thinking I should either add. More water to raise the water level or lower the plant further in the bucket.
Not sure on this one. Thanks!

What is this chicks deal? Brown tips twisting leaves. Mostly in older fan leaves.

Has or does anyone have experience with vacuum sealing and then freezing budz? Is it a viable option? Just was thinking.

Hey Nick, i know when i grew dwc the upper growth always seemd slow while the roots were growing and searching out water, however i always used a drip ring to top feed until the tap touched my rez, just to keep the media saturated. I also used like 1/16 strength nutes for tge first week or so until roots in rez also. My cotyledons almost always turned yellow at first until i started using low concentrations of nutrients from the get go. They use up their "starter" food they're born with quickly when they have nothing to draw from the growing media. Hydroton, lava rocks, perlite.. They are barren. She may be showing you shes starting to get hungry.
I would recommend adding light nutes and top feeding just a bit beside the stem to help her grow a taproot faster.
Just what works for me brother. I am no expert but ive had a few nice dwc grows.

Really appreciate the feedback. I gave her small 1/4 dose of nutes when I started. I will take your advice and do another feeding with a top feed as well. It's my 1st hydro grow and not used to seeing the cotyledons go yellow so fast with very little growth. Cheers!
I have a 2' x 2' x 5' tall tent with a Viparspectra 600 watt fixture in it. Four weeks in my second grow with the light and tent. The light I believe is rated to cover up to a 3x3 tent maximum. It does a great job in the 2 x 2 tent.

Hi nick.
Some solid advice from lazarus.
Can I chip in with one thing, I've seen good results when you leave a little air gap between the net pot and the water level. It gives a chance for the roots to get strongly established before sitting in water.

what's the best and or easiest way to control humidity in the tent? (very dry) 41 % now was down to 37% last night

Ok so in some of my reading material I've found mulch on top of your plant soil will prevent soil compacting.. so a good on for a sandy gorilla grow perhaps?
Still would love help on this
