Although i hope this plant goes well there seems to be lots of room for improvement. Chillers, meters, ph, water temps etc grow media etc etc.
Today I flushed n added nutes to water phd it to 5.6 n got my ppm/ec stick n it was at .7 was told to bring it to one but didn't wanna add to much so jus left it n I added h2o2 as well for first time... image.jpeg

Even though you seem to be going in the right direction id be asking for help on the hydro forum now, theres a lot to go through with nutes, h2o and many other things. Should be some good grow journals of people who done similar grows as well :-)

If your ppm/ec is climbing it is one of a couple reasons, likely because the plant is taking up water, but not nutrients. Hence, why I said it doesnt need a nute feed right now until it bounces back. Yes, your color is coming back but it looks like growth has come to a complete hault as well. That plant should be twice that size by now. Keeping them green is only half the issue, you gotta make em grow too. Im just gonna be straight with you. Your going to hear 13 different ways from 13 different folks on how to do 1 thing. Its on you to decide which of those 13 ways you care to follow. Do what makes your plant happy, not the guys in the thread. If you think Im full of shit and choose not to listen to my advice, I promise you that I wont be heartbroken lol

It's a auto if it makes any diff I heard they usally don't grow that tall n i only added was cause I got the new nutes in that's why gh had to try it n I got the pen so wanted to jus see if it was taking up anything wasn't choosing sides on opinions my brotha was jus testing the merch lol but here's a side shot I'd say she's bout 8/9" tall not sure if that's good or bad for an auto from seed from May 25

No clue, I dont grow autos so I cdont have any experience with them. Judging by your pics over the last week, it seems as though the leaves are the same size and there isnt hardly any new vegetation at all. I didnt mean so much about how tall it is.

I would stop listening to your friend. Bunched roots dont mean squat, and you thumbing them up and likely tearing them aint helping at all. I wouldnt cut anything else off of it either. You need all the veg you can get right now.

Not sure what that would help? Its an auto so I dont think you have too much control over the lighting schedule anyways? I dont grow autos though.

What did you do to remedy the root rot? If you dont fix the cause it will just come back. Root rot is usually from res temps being too high and/or lack of oxygen in the res water.

Raise your EC to somewhere between 1.0-1.5, then stop lowering it!

Put your hand in plain tap water for an hour. What happens to your skin? What do you think happens to roots when placed in a hypotonic solution (like plain water)?

Id agree to raise but slowly, if his ec has finally dropped and a possible sign plants are feeding then id take it to 0.7ec next and so on until you see a 0.2ec drop at each change out....

or somthing like that.
