kids are sick ...
Well, the ph is a little high for hydro. You wanna keep it between 5.6 and 5.8. I'm not really sure what you're problem is because there are so many things that could cause leaves to wilt. Try adjusting your ph down a little and see if that helps. It might be something as simple as them not getting quite enough of some nutrient or other because of the ph being a skoash too high.
About your lights. How many watts do you have? You need a bare minimum of 35w per square foot, and 50w would be a lot better. How close do you have them from the tops of the plants? Those little guys look a bit stretched to me. Being florecents they ought to be about 2 inches from them to keep the plants from stretching.Tommygirl Reviewed by Tommygirl on . kids are sick ... The kids are about two weeks old now and they're looking a little wilted. About their home: - DWC bubbler (4 x 6" airstones) - 6 x T8 fluorescent lights (warm and cool mix) - nutes: General Hydroponics flora series mixed to the correct ratio (or so I believe) for seedlings - pH is at 6.0 - room temp is 75 They took off like crazy when they were put in but the leaves are looking a bit unhappy of late. Rating: 5Nature\'s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
The early leaf\'s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
