This was right after I watered them is why. I had to be quick to get a picture as you can only see them when there is water draining through.

You’re coco should never be this saturated FYI. That water should drain thru the substrate. You should see it visibly draining each time you water/feed

Root Knot Nematode? Larvae? I think it killed this seedling.
I found some type of critter crawling around what was left of the root of a dead seedling. I'd love to know what it is, and what to do with the other 2 plants in the tent. I pulled this one and removed the bucket from the tent. Video in diary. Extremely hard to see in still photo

Res Changes
Hey, guys don't judge me for this one but when you do res changes in hydro where do you keep your plants in net pots while you scrub down? lol. I have been putting them in a bathtub with cold water but how long will they be ok without airstones etc? I just never thought about it

Roots poking through bottom of pot.
I just noticed yesterday that I’m starting to have a significant amount of roots shooting through the bottom of the pot. This far into the grow, would you recommend transplanting into a 5 gallon fabric or you think she’ll be ok?

White Mold at Roots
I got some kind of white mold in the root area, I'm not sure what it is but I think I know what caused it, The reason is I was being kinda sloppy with letting the run off water sit under the plants for a day or two. Should I flush the plants now and cut them? And will it spread?

Flushing soil due to tds ppm?
I got a TDS meter last week and with my feeding 2 days ago I tested the run off and got a ppm of out of limits for the meter. I think it stops reading around 5000ppm. So now my next question is should I flush the soil. Thinking about using sledgehammer or flora kleen.

Medium flush before harvest
If flushing doesn't make a difference, then why does unflushed non organic weed burn black, doesn't stay lit, and taste like chemicals? CANNOT wait to hear the responses.....

Tipped, Squashed Plant, Wobbly Trunk - Will it Survive?
Plant fell over and squashed against itself. The base of the trunk is wobbly but still attached deep down. I've packed soil around the base of the trunk to reinforce. I'm about 2 weeks from chop and want to know if it's worth harvesting now or if plant/yield will be fine?

Cutting the bottom of biodegradable pots ?
And when I will put them in the large 30l pots within 1 week, I am thinking of cutting the bottom of the biodegradable pots (because I have read that sometimes the roots have trouble getting through). Is it a good idea ?
