Hi all!

Here are some background facts on my babies

-They are about 3 weeks old
-They are in a DIY Deep Water Culture system made from a cooler
-They experienced root rot very early on which I flushed out and treated with peroxide
-They were stunted for a couple weeks and now they are showing new growth but it is ALL yellow!
-When I thought the yellowing was from nutrient deficiency, I added quarter strength nutes which I flushed out the next day when I found out that would burn them.
-the room and res temp fluctuate between 75-80
-They recieve 24 hour lighting under 2 42w 2700k cfls for now.
-pH of res is 6-6.5
-RH 40-60%
-ppm is unknown but using tap water (pH'd)
-the first one is a week younger than the rest

Anything else I may be leaving out please let me know! Thank you guys for all your help and support I really appreciate it!

Please feel free to visit my journal for more pictures or to check out the rest of my grow, thank you!
 
I'd try keeping your water temperature below 75 degrees, preferrably around 70.

It looks like it could be an iron and/or a sulfur defieciency.

Iron deficiency will start with the new growth (as you mentioned) which lack chlorophyll however lack spots also. Aim for a 5.5 - 5.8 pH range.

Sulfur is similar but it distributes evenly throughout the plant.

Try to find some nutrients that contain iron and/or sulfur, Fe and S.
