Thank you buddy 
There were some changes in the room
Plants were transplanted 2 days ago.
I made a new lamp ( 1800W )
The plants are eating :
- Custom Nutrients bases on chelates mostly.
- Rhizotonic
- Root Excelurator Gold
Today is the delivery of:
- More Rhizotonic
- CalMag Agent
- Plant Success Great White
- Myco Chum
- Bacillus
- Earth Worm Casting
So I will brew some tea.
I was so tired yesterday so I took just 4 photos.
Today will be a full update

Hello !
After some problems im back...
That's my 1 grow in peat, so i didnt take care about the slightly low ph of that medium: 5.8 - 6.3
At first week or 2 i get food ph up by adding rhizotonic. I think it was not the best idea, because there was no cal mag in ro water at all, so i think ph was not buffered by calcium and then it cannot buffer my medium.
Result of that was runoff water with ph 5.6-5.8 and ec 1.9 - 2.6
yeah and the rising ec was lowering my ph more...
So i rinse plants with just ro + calmag water with ec 0.3 and ph 6.8- 6.9 and 1 day later plants start looking better
So i can say Lester Beans you were right about ph and leaves looking symptoms
From begining I think I should be using calmag and phUP.
Some of those photos were taken just few minutes before "night" so plants looks sleepy

I just love those field of seedlings pics! Everything looks great!

I don't really know how to get rid of this crinkle. A few plants just got it.
Was trying magnesium, potassium, calcium foliar on this plant - no success... today ill try cann mono trace elements... ehhh
Have a nice weekend!

The leaf is wavy because of the super soil effect from the rich amount of nutrients. As the plant grows more it should smooth out just fine. .

Now I can see that pure peat is a difficult medium 
Runoff Ph is still going low - like 5.8 - 6.0
Yesterday I watered them with 7.2 Ph feed and put some dolomite lime on top.
Hope it will buffer that peat oh for longer...
Also, the ec of water in was 1.3 and the runoff ex was 0.4 - 0.8 so it's not salt build-up again...
They are hungry I know
But was scared that plants will get salt build up again.

HELLO !
After a while I'm back again
What can I say - don't trust your runoff pH !
Its quite tricky...
My RO water is low pH ( ~5.7 ) and after i water my plants with ph adjusted feed ( ph 6.5 / 6.9 / 7.2 !? ) the runoff was 5.8 - 6.1
After I while I did a soil slurry test - the soil ph was 6.85
Now im checking only runoff EC.
My plants is now ok i think.
