Well, ive got some spotty areas with my bubbleponics system

i am currently trying to get the temp of the water in it to see if that is the cause but too the touch it feels cold

What i see on my plants are this:

-My plants have one to two very long roots reaching to the bottom of the system.
-I recently put nutes in (yesterday) doing only a 1/4 of a dose
-I looked at my roots and they seem to be a little slimly with a brown spot here or there
-One of the plants has a brown spot that just recently developed on the under belly of one of the leaves (these plants are about 10-15 days old)

Should i be concerned about root rot? There is a small smell from the roots also.

What kind of nutes are you using? Maybe you stated and I'm too tired and missed it. Anyway, some nutes, like Botanicare's Liquid Karma, leave sediment on the roots making them appear brown and rotted. However, with some good splashes or swishes in the reservoir, it washes off. Not sure about the brown spots on your leaves w/o seeing pictures.

That sounds like pythium growing in there. Good catch, and it's something that you will have to take care of. The cheapest way is hydrogen peroxide. The drugstore 3% kind put a tablespoon (15ml) per gallon of res water and try to get rid of it.

Change the res, and try to get all of the brown mess out of there. New roots should be white.

After doing some more research i was thinking pythium too. I have the 5th slot open and light just pours in, plus we prolly didnt change it as much as we should of and maybe the temp is a little to high
hopefully there will be a drugstore open tomorrow

Meijer's $1.07 per quart. VV

ok so i got the peroxide

should i put it in (i got a 6gallon resiovr) and let it sit for a while to kill the badness?

how long should i let it sit before i change the resivior aqua?

or should i just change the res water and then put it in?

thx in advance guys, you all have been really helpful

Hey weezy, do you use a large res? do you have any kind of pumps in there to circulate the water?
