Pics would help brother. I am not a hydro grower, but I would be glad to throw some advice your way. Get us some pics so we can help you out better. Definitely invest in the meters (PH and PPM) for a hydro setup, you will save a lot of trouble and worry and plus you can pinpoint more closely what issue you are having.
Peace N Love!

Well you don't know your pH, you don't know your PPM. How are you monitoring anything that is going on in your garden? You don't even know how to use a thermometer to read temperature?
It sounds like you have no idea what's going on whatsoever. You need to invest in equipment, and reading material from what I can tell.

Easy seabiscuit.lol. We were all new at one point man, but I see what you mean by "holding our hands". lol.
hawk is right dude, you need to invest in some things that can help you not only monitor what is going on in your garden, but also some reference material to make yourself more self-sufficient and teach you some new things.
EDIT: I am still new as shit to all this. Also to the OP, look into Jorge Cervantes books or Ed Rosenthal's growers book. They are both like a bible for the gardener and I can pretty much bet most of the growers on here either have had or still own one or both of them and may even use it still for certain issues and reminders. Much love man, get the garden together and your issues will probably resolve itself.

Without knowing your pH, your PPM, or the temp of your water, we really cant give you any indication of what could be causing this.
If the temp of your water is too high or too low it will cause issues.
If your pH is off it will effect the nutrient uptake.
If your PPM's are too high or too low it can cause issues.
No one can help you unless you get more info.

To be safe I would change out the water at a minimum. And put a low amount of nutrients in there. I can't guarantee that they'll be ok.

It looks like a ph issue or a nutrient issue which could be caused by a ph problem. Listen to hawks advice about changing out the water and nutrients and get you a PPM and PH meter asap. Thanks for helping us abit with the picture.
Good luck bro, and get back to us with the PH and PPM when you get those meters. Even if those babies don't make it, you will need those meters for future grows to keep check on your garden.

Ok I have water temp at 68 degrees Fahrenheit but the floating thermometer has only been under for 30 mins. Working on ph/ppm did change water, but now 3 days later one plant is covered in the Brown spots while the others have stopped making more, I also found a small amount of algae in the resivor, I have never had an algae build up, I have a lid to block light

Damn. Like I said I am no hydro guy so I am lost as to how to fix that. I would flush and clean the res just for safety measures. Let one of the TCs help you out there or one of the guys that use the hydro way. That way you don't have a situation of the blind leading the blind. The water sounds like it might be kinda cold, but I could be wrong and it be fine. Good luck brother, let a hydro grower help you out with this.

68 is just fine.
Now the algae is a problem. There you will need to drain and clean all your containers. Then go and get an enzymatic cleaner to help break down any remaining algae.

Hey hawk, I just thought of the stuff they sell at Walmart that cleans algae out of fish tanks, would that help him out any or would that be out of the question? Like maybe its harmful to the plants or anything? Just trying to come up with options for him.
Nice save hawk-miester!

I have no idea if it would be harmful. I don't know what are in those products. And haven never tried them.

Right on hawk. I was just trying to think of an alternative for the guy, just in case he was in a position like I am where the nearest grow shop is like 2 hours away.lol. To the OP: hawk knows his shit man, if he says it will help you then you know you got good advice.lol. If you gotta travel it will be worth it. I wouldn't invest in the shit I suggested cause like hawk said, we don't know whats in them and they might just make things worse.
