Looks like you haven't watered these plants in weeks, along with several other problems. What size pots are you using and how much are you watering.

hmmm...it really does look like your plant is in need of water bad...is this your first hydro grow? It is very easy to kill plants if your are just growing hydro and not paying VERY close attention to all the small things....SUNDAY!!!!!its wensday...im pretty sure you should be wattering more often then that. The RH is a bit low but nothing SUPER SUPER serious...i would say...check your ph make sure your fans are working and make sure your using the right nutes at the right time and in the right amount...

the good thins is....this is RIU the best in the world with the best growers so its not to late to save your babbies i wish you the best of luck...just remeber these things happen to all of us...maybe you can cut some clones if you feel like there gonna die...

I'm not that familiar with rockwool but I think it needs more frequent waterings thenonce every 3 days. Someone should come along and give you more definitive advice...

If you are using a hydro system with rockwool, which is my guess you will need to be watering several times a day for a few minutes at a time not once every three days for longer periods. I don't deal in hydro myself so for more definitive answers, I would suggest posting in the hydro section. I'm curious though how you could have managed to keep these plants alive this long with a watering schedule like that?

3 plants is nothing in the long run..you grow and you learn everyone has broken stalks pests or mold or SOMETHINg some day..thats why we got RIU...cut some clones if you feel that bad..
you are doing good bro...just know that next time it wont happen....also...i dunno how many grows you have done but..its always best to start very simple then add 1 or a few new things into your grow to improve it...ive seen people throw big bucks into a hydro unit because they herd it was better and killed all there plants....good luck
