Two days ago I got my young girl on her first feeding cycle in my dwc/bubbleponic system. Adjusted the pH to 5.5 (the same as the clean water bath she was in prior to feeding) and added ferts to 1/4 strength as I normally do for the first feeding or two. Last night I noticed some drooping all over the plant, so I readjusted the air line (waiting on new air stones) as it may have not been in the water overnight.
Today I go to check on her and a leaf that was drooping moreso than the others showed some discoloration. The plant itself is looking a bit more lively today though. Roots are still pristine white as well.
I have three thoughts:
1. I didn't burn off enough chlorine (although I have 3 seedlings in the same water that are doing fine)
2. Lack of oxygen in the reservoir
3. I over fed
Pictures are included, please help me figure this out.
First pic was before the feeding, second is of the plant (still drooping, but looking better), and the third is of the damaged leaf
