Okay growing a Northern light in a five gal DWC and everything was going well until today's Rez change.

Before:

Added three gals cold water 6 ml hydroguard, 16 ml of sensi a and b, 8ml camg, 12 ml b52, 8ml voodoo and cleaned bucket good. Checked on her not even an hour later...

The ph was perfect or my money back, and tds was 675ppm. Nothing else changed. I immediately dumped about 3/4 of the Rez and added water back. Tds back down to 240. Added the water a little warmer in case it was a shock being so cold. Hydro store doesn't have revive so all we can do is sit back and watch. Anyone have any insight? Water temps were def pretty cold but the much smaller gold leaf right next to her got roughly the same temp water just much lower nutrient strength and she looks

And this one still looks like

It looks as if it LSTd itself.

When was it watered last
 
I currently have 1xmars hydro 300 in my wardrobe, and i would like to add 2x125w cfl with reflector.

My question is: can i put the reflector and led at the same height?

My led is sitting at 18inches from the canopy, i know that cfl's can be really close to the plants without hurting them

But if i do that, the reflector will block the light from the led which it will be sitting at a higher position.. any experiences with this kind of "problems"?

It was the first Rez change of the plants life we literally just changed the Rez and this happened. Water temp was cold close to 60 initially which is where I think the issue came from and now it is 68 and cab temps were 77, still is.

Could very well be the cold shocked her, lets see if she likes the warmer water temps better.
 
So i guess it's a no.. okay thanks :)
If you really need those CFLs grab a couple of those adjustable arms cannakitty posted, they are pretty cheap and she was 100% correct in saying that mobility is key with CFLs. Did you see her response to your question on my journal? She knows her shit, she's one of my go to's when I'm not sure about something. Happy growing!

I just saw it thanks! My problem is that the reflector it's a big one, like the one on the pic, but with double socket

Yeah i can see what you mean about the reflector blocking light, you could use the cfls for vegging and the mars hydro for flowing, although I'm not sure how well one 300 would do with two plants.

For me it's working just fine, i know it's not the best light, but it's what i can afford lol, u can check my progress in my journal.

and now that i got the chance to get the reflector with the cfls i don't want to let this opportunity go just like that

I'll stop by and check it out, i have a mars hydro 96x5 reflector and love it! Anyway just play with positioning and get creative and you'll figure out the best way to use those CFLs!
