    Yellowing of new growth after light flip

    Is this normal one day after changing light cycle to 12/12.
    Temp is 78 f. Rh is 58% Co2 is 1200 ppm. Rdwc GH flora expert feed schedule at 50%. Two days before this I changed nuts to week 4 transition schedule. Lowered lights a few inches ( trying to find best height) might have got too close. Already raised light back to 20 inches. Fixing to go see what they look like this morning.
    DIY 4x12 Farmacy box w/2 4x4x6 grow areas
    TrolMaster HydroX runs the whole show
    Dual tank Co2 injection w/ rain tubing
    10000 btu thru the wall A/C / 5000 btu heater
    50 pint dehumidifier/ cool mist humidifier
    8" intake fan w/ hepa filter / 8" exhaust fan
    2 Timber Fatty-vs COB 950 watt draw fixtures
    w/ added 4 2ft T5 Pure UV bulbs on each fix.
    2 DIY Hybrid DWC 5 gal bubble bucket systems w/ 55 gal reservoirs w/ PH dosers
    2 2"x2"cyl.stones in each bucket, 8"disk in reservoirs
    GH Flora series (entire line) + Orca
    Grow 3 = Blueberry 1 dwc 1 soil.
    . Cherry pie 1 dwc 1 soil
    Soil is great lakes "just add water" in 7 gal fabric bags

    Res. Ph is 5.8 lowered to 5.5 every 12 hrs. Ppm is 710, 280 is straight water. Temp is 64 deg f.

      I think the issue isn’t that the new leaves are pale, but maybe the older leaves are getting dark as a sign of phosphorus deficiency. The first part of flowering needs plenty of P in their feed.
      Do the older leaves have red/purple stems?
      There are 3 things you must check everyday when growing in hydro:
      1) Water level (How much h2o is she drinking in 24hrs)
      2) pH level (change over 24hrs)
      3) ppm/EC level (How much food is she eating in 24hrs)

        Think I over reacted. The new growth went back to normal color after 12 hours of light. Yes I do have purpling of the stems on the older fan leaves. Just changed the nutes last sat. to week 4 this sat. will change to week 5. That will be double from 3rd week on the bloom nutes. Should I add more than that?

          I’m not sure what you are using for nutes, but if you are switching to flower, you want to get some P values in your feed .

          1) Water level (How much h2o is she drinking in 24hrs)

            I'm using GH Flora trio plus thier extras. Still trying to find the proper strength to go with my lights and co2 injection. I started out at full strength and burnt them in week 2 of veg. so I backed off to 40%. I'm up to 50% now at transition. Guess I'll bump it up to 70% when i change out this weekend?

              Best thing is to make small incremental changes, especially with nutes. Make changes...wait...observe...rinse and repeat.
