I'm pretty sure theres some nutrient problems going on.

What medium are you growing in, rockwool, coco

A little more info on your setup please

100% Fert burn, I have the EXACT same problem with my plants. They we're fine and growing strong until i added fert (an overdose) If i were you I would use some Epsom salt in your water to raise the Ph to around 6.8-7.1. Water them when needed but only give them the nutes (1/4 does) every 3-4 days until you see improvement; if you dont see improvement it might be too late.

no the real reason behind this, is that the guy clearly hasnt got a nutrient meter.

In hydro this is like cutting your eyes out.

You need a nutrient meter if you want to grow in hydro

In fact, I do have a nutrient meter, and after the full dose, the reading was at 1.0-1.2 EC. The initial grow medium was the sponge which came with the aerogarden. Temp: 65-80, humidity ~60%, ph: 58.-6.2.

I havent checked the ppm or ec since I have performed the water change, but it probably wouldnt register on the meter anyways since im using distilled water and no nutes right now. Still keeping an eye on them..

I give my plants 1.2 from seedlings, and then build it up

maybe once everything is flushed get the ec to around 1 by just using the grow

BUMP...

here they are now.. :(

They look horrible!!!

Nothing but fresh water. ph never gets below 5.6 above 6.4..

:( Help?!@ :roll:
They have improved quite a bit i would say, all the new growth at the top looks a nice even green, the burn on the lower leaves looks worse but it will do, take the yellow part off where there is some, take it back to the nice coloured green
