[quote=Help_Needed]I'm not anything close to an expert...I'm on my first hydro grow, but I'll still throw in my 2 cents lol.

First, if I understand correctly, you've got 9 plants in a 3 gallon bubbler? I've got 6 plants in a 13 gallon DWC system and I've had people tell my that my res is too small for that many plants. Maybe they're too crowded in there? Not sure on this tho. It's just a thought.

i doubt thats a prob now maybe later but there to lil for the res to be to lil now maybe when they get bigger it will get cramped but not now they don't have enough roots yet for that to be a prob
