My Poor Babies!

What the fuck is happening, I planted these guys a little over two weeks ago and as soon as the first real leaves started to develop they started turning yellow. I don't think they are nutrient burns because one of the plants is doing great (I pray to god it's female). here are the vitals:

Strain: top 44
Grow Method: Aerogarden
Light: 24/0
Nutes: Herb Nutes (I figured nutes meant for growing a wide variety of plants would be okay for pot)
Other: I thought maybe somehow they weren't getting enough oxygen so I added an airstone, this hasn't helped.

These pics are from yesterday, I don't really have the cash to do anything so I am going to let nature take it's course untill a couple of weeks from now when I have money. I have come to terms with the possibility of all my plants dying, but what can I do to keep this from happening in the future, seeds aren't exactly cheap.

I don't think I left anything out but if you can think of something just ask.

Thanks in advance.

p.s. these pics are from yesterday, they plants are even worse today.

Yes, the plants did get nute water on them, several times (droplets). as for the amount of nutes and water, the aergarden comes with nutes that are in pre-measured amounts, corresponding to a full reservoir.

Wel the splash is the burns and yellowing of the plant and the aero garden didnt come with ganja seeds so your only guessing for correct setting which probably are for peppers or tomatos so get a ph meter and ppm tester if you wann do it correct.Those aerogardens are over priced you can build a home version thats bigger better and cheaper.

I don't understand why dill is doing so well, when all the rest are dying. I will be more careful in the future with the splashing, but for now there is not much else I can do that isn't free. what do you think their chances are of making it, and is there anything I can do in the meantime too help them, like misting the leaves with regular water?

Here are todays pics, to give you an idea of what has happened in 24 hours. They may be out of order, so use the label to identify the plants.

Thanks again.

The nutes that come with the aerogarden suck. That is the problem.

When i got mine, i played with it for a few weeks. Used bag seed and the aerogarden nute tabs. The sprouts got fried with nute burn. Rinsed out and reset with Fox Farm nutes at 1/2 recommended strength, and the ladies are BOOMIn...

at 4 weeks they need to be moved to a permanent home. The aerogarden is too small to finish a plant worth a damn. Im using mine to start sprouts and clones. Then into the DWC under a 400 hps.

You will need different nutrients to use aerogarden.
