Newbie Needing Help

I am a first timer and I have some questions. I have read the guides and I have tried to follow them but my plants have some problems. I have looked at the diagnosis section but I am afraid to trust my judgement since I have no experience. I am uploading some pictures and would appreciate it if you all could tell me what is wrong with my plant and give me any suggestions on what I should do next. I have learned so much from this site and I don't like to look elsewhere because everyone has different ways of doing things and it can get confusing. In picture #1 there are some little indented circles on the leaf. Not all of my leaves look like this but a few of them do. Pictures 2 and 3 are self explanatory and picture #4 is just a shot from the top of the plant. If anyone sees anything else that is wrong, please tell me. 20180225_170605-1-1.jpg20180225_170225-1.jpg20180225_170142-1-1.jpg20180225_170444-1.jpg
 
It looks like some sort of pest.

Pictures 1 and 3 kind of look like russet mite damage. And picture 2 looks like more spider mite type damage. Thats what I think anyway.

Do a real good check under your leaves. If you have a loupe use that to check.

Also looks like a bit of overwatering the leaves are pretty saggy.

If no bugs then maybe share what type of environment, lights, medium and nutrients you are using to help pinpoint the problem.
 
I actually think that is causing more of the leaf swelling than my original thought of russetts in pics 1 and 3.
 
Thanks everyone for the input. I also thought it might be calcium deficiencies and I wasn't sure about the overwatering. I had been watering them every day. I ordered some Calimagic and it came in today. Does anyone have any recommendation as to how much I should use? It is in dwc.
 
I agree with this. lol

I would start looking for mites or mahor pH fluctuations. Dont know what else would make the leaves swell.
 
The lighting is wrong not enough intensity. that's y the leaf stems r so long. They feel shaded and r reaching. yeah too much water/ not enough air to roots. The dents n shit on the leaves looks like maybe some nute water splashed on them. Check ur PH runoff tho that will open a whole new world as far as what the roots r doing and ur medium / res
 
Hey Shirley, welcome to the forum, too!! As everyone above has indicated, it looks like you have various issues with your plant--not just one. I grow DWC as well, and would also like to know what the roots look like; can you post a pic of the roots? If your roots are brown and gooey, then you probably have a case of root rot, which could be causing the leaves to show deficiencies, because they are unable to uptake nutrients.

This tutorial is A LOT of information, but it covers what you need to know to grow hydroponically:
