Here's the thing. You can quit now and you won't have any harvest. Or you can keep going and maybe pull out a halfway decent harvest... Don't quit... you may not have the best looking roots around but that's not the be-all-and-end-all of everything. Stop looking at the roots and start looking at the top of the plants... the more you take the roots out of the bucket, the more light gets in... the more light gets in, the more you invite problems...
Stick with it - and forget about the roots - just don't think about them again!!!! ... tend to the growth above ground... you can do it!
Good luck...

So the thing is, they don't stink. (Points to not being rot). But I do have mag deficiency, droopy leafs and stunned growth.
I'm going to pump my water out of the RDWC and into my tank. Add again 0.75ml/L h2o2 of 12%, see if pH stabilzed and then see next week.
Thank you all for the help, and opinions!

I’d let things be and roll for another week or so.. assess things after that.. you’ve got excellent growth of white healthy roots since the original problem

Root rot smells if there is no smell your fine. I would prune half those roots off so they stay healthy. Plus they will grow back denser providing more tips allowing the plant more intake. Also allows for more solution to help stabilize ph and swings better. Only tips of roots in water.
I use to do exactly how you are, and had root issues a lot. I started pruning them and controlling there descent into the bucket now and I have much healthier roots. No root issues since.

Root rot :(I believe I have a case of root rot. Pic attached. I just added Orca in the morning, and noticed orange foam and these roots literally hours later. Water was still under 70 from the res change sunday afternoon. Currently 68.
I rinsed in tap, they look a little better. ;(

Persistent issues - wilted leaves, light-green splotches, brown rootsMy plant has these issues. I've rinsed off the roots in case it was nutrient buildup on roots, which I still believe to be the case. I have given this plant a good amount of nutrients the week before. Does this appear to be a deficiency? Any ideas?
