Your plants are drinking more water than nutes. Plus factor in evaporation.

Moonunit, Thanks for the reply any thing I can do to get them to take in more nutes? or any other tips for 1st timer with ebb? They are looking great so far and Im real happy with the rate they are growing. Thanks again

Room temps may be a little to high.

If not just put little less nutes in next time u change res!

Your ppm is too high. Plants are taking more water than nutrients. Add water and lessen your nutrient concentration on your next res change.
