    I'm doing my first hydro grow after a long time growing in soils,and using organics. My set-up is a 4 gallon square dws bubble bucket. I'm using general hydroponics brand maxigrow & maxibloom, and they gave me a small bottle of superthrive which is a bunch of vitamins, and hormones.

    right now they are just seedlings, so I started out with the low dose of 1/4 teaspoon per gallon which was recommended on the tub for cuttings, and seedlings. I also added one drop of the superthrive per gallon which is alow dose on the bottle.

    quastion is my leaves are not a lush green color, but rather pretty yellow. They look healthy, and it looks nothing like nute burn, just yellow overall coloring on an otherwise healthy growing plant.. My ph stays pretty steady at 6.0, and I have others in spoil right next to it as healthy and green as could be, so I know my lighting is sufficient..Know of anything that may be causing this?? think it'll grow out of it in time? I'm due to be getting a much stronger air pump so I'll be making a new mixture some time this week anyway.

    ok thanks.. I did start with a light solution, and have added some plain ph adjusted water to keep the water level in the pot till my roots come through.


    I'll be getting that stronger pump within the next two days or so, so I'll be adding a little strength to the mixture then. Thanks for your help
