Thanks for the reply FelipeBlu.
I'll hold off on the ca/mg for now then and wait for some good advice on how much I should use.
Your help is appreciated.
Any idea what's up with these seedlings?

Hola MGD! 
Back from a nice surfing trip.
What CalMag do you have? Never mind - I see it above - can you give me the %s of Ca and Mg from the label? Also the net weight?

Ca/Mg 4,9 : 1,4 (%m/m)
Net weight 1258 grams - 1Litre bottle
Okay, here are the numbers:
2ml/L (7.58ml/gal) of Canna Vega (1ml A & 1ml B) plus 1ml/L Canna CalMag Agent =
145ppm N - 26ppm P - 149ppm K with 108ppm Ca and 40ppm Mg
It’s possibly a bit hot for the current size plants, but when the plants are ready for it, you could use this for a while. You might consider knocking the Vega back to 1.5ml/L (+ 1ml/L CalMg) for a week or so. That gives them 112N-20P-112K with 98Ca and 35Mg, which is likely a better transition.

Thanks for the reply and helping me with the nutes and Ca/Mg ratio.
Just to clarify and double check I got you.
1Litre water
1ml vega part A
1ml vega part B
1ml of canna calmag agent.
If knocking it back slightly
1 Litre water
0.75ml part A
0.75ml part B
1ml canna calmag agent
Thanks again, your help really is appreciated
Edit: when you say 7.58ml per gallon that's in metric not imperial ?
The US metric and UK imperial gallon is much different

You got the proportions right.
US gallons (3.79L)
Thanks again.
I thought it would have been US gallons.
Much appreciated.
You’re very welcome. It’s really my pleasure to be able to help. 
They should green up with this regime. A lot of the leaf damage will not repair, but new growth should be green and vigorous. If they start getting pale again, increase back to 1ml each. If they start getting hungry again, you can increase all 3 another 0.5ml each. That should hold them through flowering.

This is how they're looking at the moment.
The biggest one's first true leaves seem to be darkening up, the other's bottom leaves are still a pale green. A couple of them are really greedy and drink more or less all their daily feed. The smaller ones not as much. The other 3 that are in coco were the newest ones that sprouted last week, 1 didn't sprout. Seems to be the super kush that most of the seeds didn't germinate and one of the big yield auto's never popped either. Hoping the lemon haze I planted a couple of days ago germinates.
Looking good
That left rear Amnesia (2nd photo) has cloning potential!

If only they were photoperiods I would try clone a few of the best looking ones.
This grow was supposed to be photo's but ended up buying 31 auto seeds.
Maybe the next grow I'll do photo's and try a few little experiments with one or two of the plants.
Oh sorry - I forgot they were Autos.
She’s still a vigorous one!

I know that autos can be cloned but it's pretty pointless since they can't be reversed back to a vegetative state but it didn't stop me last time when I snapped a couple of branches from the previous grow by accident.
I done it more out of curiosity to see if they would take root and to understand the cloning process better. They didn't grow big or produce anything worth harvesting but responded and rooted well.
Experiments (playing around) is great fun!

Thanks bluter.
Hopefully I don't have too many problems from here on out but that would be me being over enthusiastic to think I won't run into other issues throughout the grow.
At least I know i'm in the right place for help and great advice if I do run into more problems.
your only just getting used to the nutes and figuring out a proper schedule.
you can be a little more aggressive. earlier on you were at 50 ppm on a seedling that was looking for about 120. you can ramp a bit faster with the style of hydro you're running.

That's the reason I got colloidal silver.
I want to try cloning a few decent photo's aswell as breeding one or two Auto's at some point.
Again I don't know much about growing, cloning or breeding but I like to learn and enjoy experimenting.
you could probably about double your lighting.
also that plastic is super flammable. i avoid panda film like the plague. paint or bubble mylar is the safe route.
if something happened in that room the roof is gonna be fully involved before you even realize you're on fire.

I'm hoping to get the plants up into the loft by next week so I can put them into their final buckets and then I will be able to try get their feeding schedule sorted out properly.
You posted on my journal a week or two back saying I should inject the feed directly into the perlite as apposed to using one of the drippers.
How far into the perlite should I put the tubes. Each bucket has 2 feed lines.
Thanks again for replying.
As always your help is appreciated also.
