Hi:
I've got sprouts just starting to grow their second tier of 'real' leaves.
They look good except that they're starting to look more and more yellow.
I'm using a hydroponic drip system. They're in General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter plugs surrounded with Hydroton clay pellets in net pots.
They are not in standing water.
I'm using Advanced Nutrients Grow-Micro-Bloom and I've got about 1/4 strength in a 5+ gallon reservoir of RO water at 0 PPM (before adding nutrients). I've also got just a tad of Advanced Nutrients Barricade in there to level the Ph.
I'm watering for 15 minutes 3 times a day.
I did have a problem with Ph rising just a bit (not above 6.4) but I think I've got that under control now. It's pretty consistently between 5.5 and 5.9.
What am I doing wrong? How can I get the leaves to green again?
