The compost should have plenty nutes for this stage. Now you just need to develop some root system and remember roots like moist and oxygen rich environment. So as said, I recommend you water from the bottom and could consider adding some perlite/leca/sand anything really to prevent water...

Yes, probably all around nutrient deficiency, N, Ca,Mg, because of the roots have been too dry/wet to absorb nutrients properly. Above is a good guess, but often so small cups are prone to dry too fast. Atleast been for me. My guess would that they've been a tad dry. This you should be able to...

Yeah, yellowing from the bottom definatly looks like typical N-deficiency and 2nd picture pretty typical calcium deficiency. But both are reasonably mild and definatly shouldn't cause nothing, but dropping some older growth. As for the curling I'm not really sure, my guess would be root...

I would call magnesium deficiency. The interveinal chlorosis is a Mg def sign. Also the red stems on leaves is often a sign of magnesium deficiency also. Phosphorus deficiency can turn the stems red too. The darker spots there could be just further progressed Mg deficiency. Since it's the only...

Something like 3:1:2 for vegging, 1:1:2 early flower and then 1:2:4 is pretty good starting point. Depends really on the growing method how much margin of error there is. If you are slacking water changes in recirculating systems, you need to be pretty spot on what you feed. But any kind of...

Yeah, it's hard to keep too small pot properly moist, but not too dry. Maybe you could try bottom feeding? Put the pots in a tote or so and water them from the bottom. Especially those fabric pots could work nicely like that. Maybe cover the top soil with something that blocks evaporating water...

Yep, as long as it stays moist it isn't really a problem. Put the light above it and I bet it would straighten itself. Or add the light intensity bit later when there's more roots. I've had bending stems in cuttings often when I let them lean againts water glass, so they try straighten...

In a established plant the bottom of the stem is fixed in place and the plant can adjust itself into light. So basically it is trying to turn itself pointing towards the light. Solutions is to adjust the light that it comes from above or increase the amount of light. Carefull with the amount of...

Lol, did I say OP's plant are cuttings? Big difference with lockout and toxicity. Which nutrients you think are locked out and which are in toxic amounts?

Well you can easily light stress a cutting with about 100ppfd 24/7. So it definatly depends on the root system how much they tolerate before it starts to stress them. As for ppm, it could be molecular instead of elemental so I wouldn't give it too much thought. How do you think Potassium...

Yeah, you could go heavier PK feed. Check the 2nd picture and compare the color of the leaves. That bluish tint is more often than not phosphorus deficiency. Also seems like you got K deficiency spotted out. And for consideration, could you be getting tad too much light? Few of the symptoms...

Hmm, well definatly looks like some N deficiency. But I reckon there is more deficiencies. No signs of overfeeding. But quite red stems, which is phosphorus/magnesium, here I suspect phosphorus. So you could overall feed a little stronger solution. Just don't overdo the nitrogen at this point...

Final water change @ week 7

MPK = monopotassium phosphate MgS (MagnesiumSulphur) = Epsom salt These are not any brands, but the basic ingredients that every brand uses. I'm doing DWC with few as possible water changes, so I try adjusting as best I can for growth phase. But having an spreadsheet or something like...

I've used maxibloom and bunch of other hydro store stuff along the way. I just can't justify the price nowadays. Especially when I like tweaking the recipe according phenos, growth stages etc. Now I have 25kg bag of Basefert for 50-60euros 25kg bag of MPK for 80euros 25kg bag of CalNit for...
