Droopy seedling leaves

No Title

That's what I was thinking. Plus I've only got 4ft to work with so I opted for the shorter reservoir to give myself more vertical growth room if I need it. She is still growing strong. You can really see where the nutes got that second set of leaves, but the third set are coming in greener than all the rest so I think my ppm is in line. PH: 5.8 PPM: 305

So these pics are from this morning to now, roughly 12 hours apart. The growth and the green are there, but whyyyyyyyyyyyyy is she looking so damn sad????? This is so frustrating. I taped off the lid for light leaks and I did my first res change when I got home. The internal res temp before changing was 77F which isn't too terribly hot right? Current PH: 5.8 and PPM: 330.

🌱 Definitely some major growth! Almost always when the plant is droopy, it means there's something going on at the roots. If there's absolutely no light getting into the reservoir, and you have plenty of bubbles in the water, I would look at the temperature. 77°F is pretty hot for a reservoir. Many growers recommend 68°F. Mine usually stays around 73 or 74°F. You mentioned you're using Hydroguard, but you might consider adding other root-helping supplements like Great White or SM-90, just because everyone's version of root rot is a little different, and Hydroguard might not be as effective at your specific pathogen as another option might be. 🌱

Ok then I just ordered some Great White. When I woke up this morning she had perked up some after the lights had been off for 6 hours which leads me to believe it's definitely the reservoir temp getting too high. So here's my temporary solution. I took the bottom half of my humidity dome (which I was already using with a wet towel to raise the humidity a little bit) and filled it about a quarter of the way with water, put the reservoir in it with 2 ice packs. Hopefully that will keep the reservoir cool until I find another way to bring the overall temp down in the box. This pre made grow box is nice, but they need to make them with stronger intake and exhaust fans.
