Definitely messed up going from soil to hydroponics on most of the plants but my biggest and second biggest did well. Had to put new plants into the other 4 spots. Definitely a new change for me

Keep the pH right. Keep the ppm on the low side, remember the plants are directly exposed to the nutrients unlike soil. And the most important of all is nutrient solution temp. It should or must stay below 70 at all times preferably 68. Hardcore hydroponics always goes back to solution temperature. Controlling this is the difference. Coco may be a choice in between dwc and soil. Give it some thought

Have you tried bumping up the ppm or is this what you start them with?
