Sorry guys I forgot to take pictures. When I checked the roots yesterday, they were a lot worse. I spent a couple hours last night draining, cleaning, sterilizing everything. Rinsed of the roots with 3%h202 and rinsed with water. Was able to get all the Decayed matter off. Filled the reservoir...

UC Roots has on there website that if battling a pathogen to increase dosage to 5-10ml/gallon in solution and run that strength until roots improve and go back to regular dosage. Should I do the consecutive flushes or follow the instructions for getting rid of root rot from UC Roots?

With just plain ph’d water?

Here is my plan, Rinse roots with squirt bottle of 3% H202 to remove brown staining/ slime. I’m also going to increase my reservoir UC roots concentration too 3ml/gallon from 1.5ml/gallon The bottle says too dose from 2-5 ml a week. Rinse hydroton from top. What do you guys think? Will it help...

Is UC Roots like res clear? You don’t change your reservoir water weekly?

Does that look like staining from nutes or early stages of root rot?

I have a 5” airstone in each bucket and a 12” airstone in the res and two air pumps. Are any of the additives necessary? It is my second dwc grow. First one made it to harvest but just barely was battle root rot the whole way. Bought the chiller and I’m trying to be proactive for my root rot.

I will definitely start doing that with my water change. So what should I drop? Should I just run Nutes and a sterilizing agent? I was gonna drop the vita max+ anyway. Also what about diamond nectar to aid the plants with Nute breakdown?

No, I just change the reservoir water once a week.

UC roots recommends not dosing H202 and increase dose to 5-10ml until root problems improve. I have 29% H202, should I mix a small amount and clean the roots?

Feed method? I use top feed recirculating.

ANy help, guys? What’s the best way to treat this? Also prevent it? I’ve read a ton about it run a chill, sterilizing agent(uc roots), everything is light proof. I just don’t get it. My next thing is to try to get Hydroguard and run bennies but Hydroguard is hard to get in Canada.

Checked my roots today and saw this. Is this root rot or stain/discolouration. I would appreciate any advice on what to do from here. How would one go about cleaning that off? GH flora 3 part Silica Vita max+ Cal/max Diamond nectar UC roots Chiller temp 65f PH 6.0 Just dropped ppm from 630 to...

They are in rapid rooter cubes. I set up a timer and started to water 15 on then 30 min off. Here are some updates pics. Still no roots tho.

My 4 girls look decent but I noticed some of their bottom leaves yellowing. They have been in dwc buckets for almost two weeks. Ph stays between 5.8-6.5, ppm 300 (120 tap water) some grotek kickstart and a little calmag also some uc roots for sterilization. Water temps at 72f. Hopefully someone...
