Ok mate, thanks for your constant support lol, well it says on the bottle between 250-350ml per 100ltr and iv put 110ml (res is 40ltr) so about the minimum they reccomend. Its running 1.7 EC, think thats a bit high? Could always pull 5 ltrs out and replace with water to dilute? Cant believe i forgot A and B. its been in a week now

No worries mate you're welcome lol
Yeah abit too high, I'd have it around 0.4-0.6ec tbh less is more in hydro
Just add more water and check your ph

Empty the res and refill
28 is still abit too hot tbh they're struggling proper, is there enough oxygen in water ??
Just realised one of my x2 air pipes was squashed so only had on air stone working. Shall i set temp to 26 on the fan controller then mate? Sits at 28 with fans on low, have intake but hardly. Shall i set it so intake always on full when lights are on. Have No fans running when lights are off at the minute either

Keep fans on 24/7
Get as much oxygen in as possible!!
You wana hope the lack of oxygen and high heat hasn't caused pythium (root rot)
Check your roots right now!
Check for smelly loose brown slimey roots
Get temps down as low as you can, be careful with intake as if it's a hot day like today 18c where i am, you will only be bringing in MORE HOT AIR which is just a problem

From what i can see they look fucked
Hard to tell from the pictures though mate, MIGHT be better off starting again, go dwc, alot easier to control n grow with
Possibly the slowest start iv ever had, lost the one a week ago, temps have been strady now for over a week, have about 3 long roots now through and deep into the water so hoping it takes off soon, 2 and half weeks in. Been considering scrapping and starting again but part of me wants to see if they pull through now iv committed 2 and half weeks of electric into it. Going to change the RES tomorrow and will add some multi total and maybe bit of Cal/Mag into the mix, also just started cooling the res water with ice packs to see if that helps as the water was 24/25 degrees which probably wernt helping, feels cool to touch but just put temp guage in and surprised me how warm it was.

Suffering from heat stress and nute burn, less is more in hydro, try to let the plant settle, it's in shock, just keep the res temps low and the tent temps low
