Ok so heres my story..this is my 5th first time trying. Im using the aerogarden...I have it on 18hrs light im using tap water filtered through a brita bc that seems to have lowest ph...my ph is around 6..it was closer to 7 but I changed the water in the tank when I noticed my green plant turning lighter green and now im starting to see yellow and brown (see photo) also I was using 1/4 dose od miracle grow which is listed at 24-8-16.. I know I know im an idiot and need to switch to something with lower nitrogen...well since I replaced the water ive had it on no nutrients..Its been 24 hrs since ive lowered the ph and flushed all the nutrients and it has gotten better...this always happens 3 or 4 weeks in...can it b saved? Take a look and please tell me what you think...thanks20121130_222448.jpg

how do you monitor ph in that thing? the res is too small and will not hold ph and probably get hot as hell.

more than likely its a combination of things but mostly ph. veg plants like a lower ph, 5.5-5.7. this allows them to absorb more of the elements they need more of at that stage.
