Help! Do I have root rot? I've followed botanicares nutrient line to a T for week 3. I grow in DWC. My humidity is 65% water temp is 70, ppm 1060. Is it just due to my nutrient line being more brown colored? My first time in hydro.
Open
Roots. Color - Brown

if not slimy or stinky, probably just stained.

Possibly also needs more oxygen to the solution (more bubbles). Yes 1060 is to high. Also your humidity is way too high. Needs to be around %40 at all times. Don't go below %35

Probably stains from nutes if they’re colored similar. 1060 is quite high for such a small root mass. I’d consider toning that down quite a bit

That looks more like stains from the nutrients rather then root rot. Make sure you have a gap between the bottom of the net pot to the top of the water level.

Peebles and rock wool are to much moist. drop a bit the level of water. I had the same problem on my first dwc.
