It may be nutes but it looks like the typical orange gunk you get with root rot bro.

Is there a foul odour coming from the Res?

If it turns out to be rot youl need to buy 3% hydrogen peroxide from the chemist and add some to the Res.

I'm not clear on amount but I'm sure someone else will chime in and let you know.

Please don't post the same thread across multiple forums.

Post in a single forum (the most logically appropriate one), and then be patient.

Whats the water temp

H2o2 use too much and it can burn fine root hairs, better to use microbes or hydrguard to battle root rot.

Probably not root rot if it isnt slimey

Temps seem ok. Does look like rot from pics but I'm not there I can't properly tell. No foul smell so it probably won't be rot.

What nutes and add-ons do you use?
That may have just stained them , humic or fulvic acid and most organics will stain them.

If it was rot then peroxide is the best option because by the time he had a decent enough culture going the plant will have died because there wouldn't be roots left.

If he added a microbe product lie the Raw brand bloom microbe. He would have a decent culture going almost instantly and they would start battleing the bad bacteria in the pot almost instantly.

h202 isnt the best option its only the fastest along side bleach if you want to kill everything in your pot. fast

We're both right m8, mychorziae or h2o2 for root rot.

Either would be good , I said h2o2 was best because it kills it faster that's all.

Not trying to argue with you but....
Microbes are your friend
h202 can burn fine root hairs if you use too much.

Mychorziae would be good if you can get some, it's a good preventative for root rot , there really good for your roots. I use advanced nutrients tarantula but there are cheaper alternatives that do the same job.

It's ok I agree bro. I wud only consider using h2o2 if I had no mychorziae. He might not have any or be able to quickly get hold of some so that's why I recommended h2o2 at a small dose.

I use tarantula and I swear by it
