Might just be the plant, It was 1/2 the size of the other one's. I did start out with very low nute's to feeding chart for seedlings. ppm a lil over 200. Thanks for the advise everyone. I switched to the Fox Farm nutes to see if i could wake the lil girl up and she did grow a lil, But i think she may just be a bum plant, had one on my last run that would not grow at all while everyone else took off. A lot of the lower leaves went yellow on me and when i looked today she had a lil more color. I am going to top other plants soon and try to clone them and may try again . I will check out the other water farm grows. I did drill a lot more holes in the bottem bucket like every one does...Up date this in a day or so...thanks merry christmas and will rep everyone that help.....OhMy

i run waterfarms also and use both the 3 pt gh and flora nova b using the lucas formula and i have tried putting seedlings in the waterfarm when they r smalll but have had slow growth also, i now try and stick to well rooted healthy clones and havent had an issue since.
with the 3 pat tho i generally start at 3ml micro and 6ml bloom per gallon when plants r younger, once they get used to the bucket tho be ready to raise ur lights every few days haha
happy growing

Below Is My Grow
Switch the foil out for reflectix insulation(home depot) and you'll keep the hot temps out of your buckets as well.

I use the three part system with good results. Keeps PH stable but does discolor the roots some cause of the micro.
