Hi guys; If I have a dying plant, would you think the best advice to stop Nutrients? Right now I am running at 1028 PPM with 5.6 PH @ 52 % RH Water temps at 78.6 cabin temps are 77-81.6 degrees.

Do you think I should flush them for a week or its not needed? and leave well enough alone.

I'm running a DWC system, 3 plants and 1 had gotten stem rot pretty badly, so I decided to spray 50/50 water and peroxide on the stem rot that was damaged ---I believe this is what killed my plant quickly. The health condition of the plant took a very big turn for the worse as soon as I sprayed witb the peroxide.

Last night I sprayed the infected area with water and wrap it with some plastic to hold moisture a tad bit.

But my first goal is to help the plant from dying...Any advice?

Hard to tell without any pictures as greenthumbsucker said, but it kinda sounds like you have to flush it out properly, maybe change your ph to 6.5?

I'll post up some pictures, but not sure what pictures will do--the plant leafs just dried up, and curled all up in 4 days since I sprayed the stem with peroxide.

If it's rot on the stem I would not wrap it in plastic, that will probably make it worse rather than better. Get plenty of light and air to it and hope it dries out.

In one sentence you say peroxide killed the plant quickly, then you end by saying you want to keep the plant from dying. So which is it Are there more than one plant you are talking about?

Rot on one plant....Yes I sprayed peroxide on the rot, and the damage was fast...Now I am trying to save the plant.
