I water them once or twice a day dependent on the needs.

I have fed them with calmag and rhizotonic ( only twice ). Thats the only two nutes I have fed them with

Then that's your problem. Your plants are clearly starving.

 

[Stormblessed]

Agreed, they look very hungry, how old r they?

 

[bluenoserjoe]

Way more info needed but to me they look like they are slowly starving. You need a line of real nutes to start feeding them. Cal/mag is a supplement to to round out a good grow nute if needed. And I believe rhizotonic is great to start healthy roots but should be backed off as the plant starts growing good. Neither of these products on their own are enough to feed your plants. Remember that in hydro you have to provide all the elements needed by the plants, not enough in just water to sustain them for very long. Best of luck to you.

I started typing this 3 times, and 3 times I deleted it. I don't like being rude to people, and that's what it kept sounding like.
So at the risk of sounding rude...here we go.

New growers should start in a self buffering soil, it's much more forgiving than any other form of growing. You should also get the nutrients recommended for that soil, so when it comes time, you'll be able to feed them, and keep them alive.

This is so you can learn to read them, to know what they want when they need it. Then if you want to try something else, at least you'll know their starving next time, and be able to do something about it...instead of saying you tried everything, except feeding them

Agree 99.9%. Growing with hydroponics in an un-buffered media can tough. It's like driving a very fast car very fast. If you screw up, you crash hard. Only thing I would add is it's not soil. Soil lives, but peat/perlite/dolomite does not.

 

[PE636]

Well, coco is extremely simple if the user bothers to take 5 minutes to learn how to use it properly. I guess that's a large investment of time for some.

 

[areksss]

Then that's your problem. Your plants are clearly starving.

But it seem like these problems started right about the time upped the nutes and watering

Thank you so much for your reply. I thought it might be the problem. I do have Canna Terra Vegga is that any good at all? I can start using it today

Well said. I honestly thought the problems started the moment I started to feed them regularly. Lesson learned

 

[Nunyabiz]

If they are not autoflowers then you got a chance to save them.
Need to water and feed them 1/4 strength nutrients every day.
And larger fabric pots wouldn't hurt.
