I agree with @Roberts, But only if your running synthetic nutrients and not organic. Since the hydrogen peroxide will kill the good as well as the bad. If your organic then doing a 10 min peroxide bath should help clear it up and not cause to much of an issue.

Add a little 3 percent hydrogen peroxide regularly. I do a ml to bucket. Root rot will smell a bit in there as well. Give it a little every 3 to 4 days and you should be golden on warding it off and no more issues from that.

Root problem or not?I would like to know if this discolouration because of the clay pebbles sitting constantly in the DWC pool and colouring the roots or from nutrients or is this a root problem? There is no slimy thing or bad smell or stunt growth which can be detected.

help in Hydro RDWC/DWCHello, 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?

Getting pH spikes from 6.0 to just under 7.0 in 48 hrs, and an algae like dark brown/reddish substance within 48hrs as well. New stones, black buckets, 950 GPH pump feeding 1 stone per bucket. Net pots covered with cardboard. What gives?

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.Roots.
