How long before they die ?
Maskedcucumber
started grow question 5y ago
2 of them getting yellower by the day, 3 or 4 of them lost their roots under the pot and they come off very easily. Color is very dark but no slime or foam. It's too bad : I had only 2 weeks and 2 days remaining. Any idea ?

Sorry to see the root rot bro. I use a product called hydroguard and that seems to help prevent or at least stop the rot getting as bad as yours.

Rotten roots
Crescita rallentata. Sembrava andare tutto nel verso giusto invece la radici della mia white wid dwc hanno subito l'attacco di un batterio che le fa andare in putrefazione e non riesco in nessun modo a eliminarlo, ho eliminato un po di marciume ma credo che ormai sia compromessa

enzymes Komplete for use in DWC bucket or just for cleaning?
My biggest challenge thus far as I already killed one plant is keeping the water temp cold enough. I've tried using enzymesKomplete in the buckets as told by a local hydroponics store and it seems to do lots of harm to the first plant and will not use it with my second seedling.

help in Hydro RDWC/DWC
Hello, my plants are now about 4 weeks old. The leaves droop and curl. The spots on the leaves are increasing. Is the PPM value too high? It's 1000ppm tds They grow in an RDWC system with top feed. The top feed is permanently switched on. Can that lead to problems?

DWC - root video, h2o2 issue
Yet another anxiety, I hope it is nothing special. But prevention is better than cure and here you all know more than I do! I added 10ml of 3% H2O2 inside the DWC through the control tube, after a few seconds there was a strange chemical reaction. -- MORE DETAILS IN COMMENT --

Root Debris in DWC. Lots of it. What is causing it? How do I fix it? I don't see root rot at all. It's not really as dark as the picture.
Why am I getting so much root debris? The pH is always fluctuating and I can't get it to stabilize. Is this the cause of the weird root debris? My other plant isn't doing it with the same mix and same pH swings. I don't see root rot anywhere. No slime nothin. Just light brown.

Is this a sign of root rot? How to save the plant?
2 weeks after germination: the base of my plant's stem has a dark color which I think may be root rot. The rest looks very healthy. How can I make sure it is rot? Is peroxide/water solution really helpful if that's the problem?
