Im growing 7 plants from seed in rockwool with a drip system. My plants are 2.5 weeks old. I was using an inaccurate ph tester and my ph was way too high for the first 10 days or so and this has caused a whitening of new leaves and new growth is yellow. I think iv identified this as iron deficiency. How do i go about solving this problem? Any help or advice appreciated, sorry no pics today hopefully tomorrow

feed some nutes that have chleated iron in it. chleated iron is immediately available to the plant.
you might want to fill out the troubleshooting form in the top of the foru here. that way you get an accurate diagnosis. most of the good troubleshooters won't bother to help if it's not filled out.
good growing!

well. u have figued out what the problem is.if there isnt a lot of damage i wouldnt do anything.just keep a eye on your ph levels and watch the new growth.if u start adding all these remedies before u wait for results your going to have a whole new slew of problems.if your plants havent perked up in a week or 2 start fixing.
