The roots could just be stained from setiment particals floating to the top of your reservoir. Try giving the roots a rinse in fresh cool water. If that doesn't do anything, and the roots are "melting" apart, then they could be rotting. Stained roots are fine though, my roots got stained from using soluble seaweed by gaia green in my reservoir!

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 --

Hola a todos, a ver si me pueden ayudar, creo que algo va mal con mis plantitas, el color está bien, pero se ven caídas y el algo en las raíces pareciera que está cambiando. Subo un par de fotos para que comparen y me digan que está pasando. 😩

Root Rot?Is this root rot? I have fixed my temps in the last 4 days. I am already using H&G Roots Excelurator. Is Hydroguard better or should I use both? I also tried fixing light leaks. Any other suggestions?

Roots getting brown My Ph probe didn't work, PH was at least more than 0.30 (maybe 0.60) than displayed. As a result they had multiple chlorosis, now septoria leaf spots and possible Pythium since the roots are getting brown. What would you do to save the crop ? Adding mycorrhizae? Thx!

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?

Now 4 days later, same roots look like #2. Had pH problems. lowered now. Gon look if its stable tomorrow. They should be ready to flip now. All other pics are also from today. Should I continue?
