PH and EC keep rising which i beleive is a sign of overfeeding, but she's sad and looks like she needs food? 🤦♂️
Water temp is 20c.
Going to start daily water changes and see if she perks up but not sure what to do r.e input EC should I leave it for now and see how she responds to the regular changes?
Many thanks hg

Jah bless each of my brothers & sisters here every day. That they remain medicated, free from harassment and prosecution. Jah's will, be what it may.
Better picture of her here.. continuing with daily water changes and hoping ill be able to get the water to stabilise soon.. shes 3 weeks old today.. Dwc was supposed to make my life easier 🤣🤦♂️

She looks hungry. From what you've said your feeding her only pH'ed water, she needs nutes as well.
The pH and EC will rise in the tank as water is used and evaporated. The dissolved salts become more concentrated. Just monitor it and adjust accordingly.
Thanks man that was my first thought but this is my first DWC grow and the research id done told me the plant should have enough nutrients in the leaves until 2nd set of true leaves before adding nutes so I didn't want to jump ahead and do it without a second opinion!
I gave her 1/4 recommended dose of the grow nutrient (Ionic Grow) and PH'd to 5.6 earlier today (EC 1.2 from .2 so think I might of miscalculated 🤦♂️)
Here she is after lights back on
Starting to look better i think, heres hoping she perks up 🙏

@hg91uk, mix up your nutrients, Cal/mag first then your A and then your B, then your Hydroguard. I will mix up 1 Gallon/4L and see what EC I get. It can be difficult at first, mixing and all, but that's why I suggest small quantities. If it turns out to be Hot, just dilute. I also use 12ml syringes when I deal with small quantities. For this size plant try to get to 2-2.5 EC and a PH of 5.8- 6.2.
See if this helps. It's a good suggestion and place to start. each vertical row is a week of growth. Hope this helps. peace
