hi riu, im relly new to hydro dwc, its my second atempt at dwc' frist grow went shit to be honest and only managed afew leaves lol. I always know i wouldn't get far but i never thought it would be over within afew leaves' anyways im having another crack and hope i dont kill this one off too, at the moment the second set of true leaves are startting to grow but the frist set are ok but alittle but back from the tip's its like the margins are startting to fold under or roll plus the leaf has what i would say to be a slight tilt, but that could me be trying to read the leaf wrong but thats what it looks like, it happend on the frist se of true leaves on the last grow, but on that one i used nutes to soon and where it started to roll or fold it also burned, but with this one i put half a ml into 39ltrs of waer, i know it wouldn't have done much if anything but i just wanted something in the res' with a soil grow there'd be pre-packed nutes already in the soil if you can see where im going with this. I know that if new leaves are abit miss-shapen and stunted then its a calcium problem so thats where about my thoughts are right now, im hoping that its not the case and its just something thats happens in dwc? my ph is 5.8-6.0, 39ltr res, ive got a rockwool cube about 4" inside my net pot which i about an inch about the water line, and the cube sits about half inch above the botton of the net pot whcih makes it about a good icnh about the water line, theres afair root system coming out the botton of the rockwool and going down into a 2ft res. ive added one ml of liqiud silicon to the res, thanks guys for reading and i hope someone can shed some light on my problem, scunk
 
It's very hard to read without any type of paragraphing..

Also is that italicized? My eyes can't read that drastically smushed together word jumble..
 
I did bubble buckets for a couple years. The first 2-3 weeks or so I added no nutes at all, just ph'd tap water. If your ph is what you say it is seems like it should be good. Did you soak the rockwool cube in ph'd water? If not, it may be the problem as curl is sometimes due to ph. Temperature is another thing that comes to mind, it may be too hot. You should post some pics and more info about your grow like temps, lights, nutes, etc. and someone will be able to help you more accurately

Thanks to the tidy peeps who reply'd respect to you all as growers and not like the people who reply'd just to show that they know fuck all about growing. All they know what to do is come on this site spreading they're shit becasue they cant grow them self's.
 
Tried reading your thing again. Is it in plain water or is there hydroponic nutrients in there? The plant needs food to grow. Have you got an EC meter? If not just mix nutes at like 1/8th strength im thinking...
 
i haven't feed the seedling yet. Ph is 5.8-6.0, i red loads of threads about using superthrive will make alge grow inside the res. Yes i let the rocwool soak in ph'd water but only for about 12hr's. In the third pic you can see what i mean with it twisting almost. I really dont know if its just something dwc seedlings go through?
 
I put half of 1ml into a 39ltr res so theres nothing in the water apart from that. I have gt an ec but i think its playing up abit to be honest.
 
Fuck me, i can see what your on about now' i smoked abit too much last night. Again sorry guys, the misses has that effect on me. scunk
