Update:
okay guys well i think i found my problem with my plants. i thought it was something along the lines of a nitrogen deficiency but i think that the water had become semi dirty. there was a lot of hydroton dust in it when i dumped it out. i did not like this at all. i decided to move my system to a area that occured to me. inside my closet lies the air filter for my air condition when the door is closed the cfm's moved inside the closet are incredible. so i moved them into there. i went and re- did the design for the box.
the old system was far to sloppy and i think the unused net slots were allowing bacteria to grow, the light was seeping through. also went with a darker color to make sure light didnt get through. plenty of air roaring in this DWC now.

i throughly scrubbed the other container with bleach water. then i stored it in a cool dry place. going to make a cloner from it.
20 minutes ago my plants went from 100% nute water pH @ 5.8 back to 6 gallons of pH balanced to 6.0 distilled water from the store with 0 nutes. only water. im going to hope that they dont die from shock. they should make it. i will add back 1/4th nutes and no higher then half for a few more weeks. i think i got the NEWB NUTE BURN phase outta my system now
..
less is best!!
also tonight i went ahead and took it off 24/0 and set it to 18/6. this is alot of moving for my plants in one day but i hope they recover strong and green.
X your Fingers For Me,
