First time grow, she's about to leave the aerogarden and live in a tray, providing me babies for a while.

She's ill. It sucks. So I'm perusing teh internets for solutions.

Likely cause..
Very recent move out of AG into new rubbermaid tub with twice as much volume, had to change containers twice before finding a way to hold her up. Ended up using slabs of pretty slate leftover from my bathroom floor to stabilize her, stacked on the lid of the tub.

I'm assuming a deficiency of some sort due to changed parameters.

Tomorrow I'm buying some PH testing supplies.

Any suggestions based on photos below please feel free to lob them my way.
Red stems, pale yellow leaves with green veins, brown tips.




PS. ALLA you futhermuckers in the US better vote doggammit.

They were on earth juice nutes, and even the clones didn't like it. I flushed all the plants and they seem to be doing better now.
I have a 150w HPS at the moment, as soon as I have more money I'll be getting more lights.
w00hoo. Tonight I'm going to see ZZ Top! Now where did I put those cheap sunglasses and stripper boots....

Me too. I had to really mess with her to get her big ole root bundle into the new digs.. tried to be careful but I know she hated it. Then I added the nutes, which I was very conservative with but still my plants had been nute free (except for the funk in my city water) and they didn't like 'em AT ALL. I removed the yellow leaves, flushed with water, and am hoping for the best. The buds are still happy, adding layers of crystally goodness, so I think it'll be ok.

Now it's just a wait and see game. On a good note tho.. a friend brought by a special little clone of "some sort of special berry flavor" and she rooted right away.

Here's a pic of one of the sick buds..

I like. And no I'm not korean:D
Yeah I'm going to take the teeny scissors to the yellow leaves again. It seems my plants just hate nutes, or at least those nutes. What is this I hear about molasses?

you can do it any time....but i hear its best the last weeks of flower....
you dont have to flush it....i guess a teaspoon per gallon..... when you water it.... i know before harvest your not suppose to use nutes but molasses is good till the end.... natures sweet nectar....

I'm about to get an aerogarden too. I have to say i had my doubts but these pictures gave me new hope. I do have some questions though;
Which grow setting do you have it on?

Doesn't really matter for the lights, I used the "figure 8" connector to hook the lights up to a timer and power strip.
Salad greens pump the water 24/7, tomato setting is intermittent. For rooting the clones I used the tomato setting, don't want them wet 24/7
