Hello growyourown,

ratio: 5,9,4
What does this mean? Is it a three part nutrient and your mixing 5 parts of one, 9 parts of another, and 4 parts of another? Even if so, I couldn't tell you anything without knowing what brand and specific nutrients your using, and which parts are mixed in what proportions?

so i know that the ratio of nutes for this specific type of plants are incorrect
How do you know this? How do you come to that conclusion? Do you have a nutrient manufactures chart that tells you that? If so why do you choose to mix your nutrients in a way that is incorrect with the manufactures directions?

It may just be a bad picture. But I don't see anything in the pictures that resembles discoloration. Keep in mind that most nutrients will tint the roots. But what is the water temp? How often do you wet the roots? Are you able to keep the roots that are hanging in mid air moist 24/7?
