Na the plants look like shit lol, wouldnt want to clone from them, my biggest issue is that my 1st system with 20 healthy ass trees in it should of been in flowering as of 13 days ago,
I build a new system and added 2 more lights so got the teens instead of small clones so i can flip the 2 systems to flower together,
well here i am now 13 days past the 30 day mark for vegging system 1 and still have not flipped to flower because of this peace of shit bacteria or whatever it is that is now killing system 2 plants. So if in a day or so they dont recover then tossing them out and flipping the 1st system to flower.
Drop the sterilizers and make some microbe tea. Treat them with tea until you see new root tips. Then get some rhizotonic. After recovery use kangaroots to maintain.

Hey @Heisenberg , thanks for your input. I honestly thought about making the tea from your post from here " https://www.rollitup.org/t/dwc-root-slime-cure-aka-how-to-breed-beneficial-microbes.361430/ " but some of them are not sold around me and some are discontinued so i didnt know exactly what to replace with what. I wish you had a more recent how to with the ingredients say from amazon or something online.
Anyway to update you guys,
after few more h2o2 and physan 20 treatments i noticed as @Heisenberg mentioned it was not working and slime was coming back, so instead of making the tea " which im at this point 100% sure was the correct way of doing it" i went ahead and bought some great white and used that instead since like i mentioned i didnt know exactly how to make the tea and i think it worked.
My plants are at this point pretty dead but i wanted to see if there was a way to save a crop later on down the line and now im sure it is with the tea.
currently my plants are showing new white roots coming out with so far no sign of the slime.
@Heisenberg if you could by any chance make or update your tea guide with items we can purchase from amazon that would be the greatest gift for me and im sure many others.
Thank you all

Actually I've updated it several times but it keeps getting buried under new posts.

The brands and products aren't important. Any earthworm castings alone will make an effective tea. Pesonally I still use ancient forest combined with mycogrow. As stated, I use rhizotonic to strengthen new clones, and kangaroots for maintenance. I rarely need to make a tea, but this summer has been bad for some reason.

Mycogrow soluble

Hey Heisenberg, I read through some of the Heisenberg tea thread and didn't see how you use Rhizotonic and Kanagroots? These are used in DWC at normal amounts after the tea gets the slime under control? Thank you!
