Help!!Aeroponics Roots Brown, Why?

Within a 24 hour period, my roots went from clean to brown build up all over within my roots. I am using jungle juice by advanced nutrients. PH OF 5.5 and ec of 550 with RO water. using 125watts flouro

water temps??????????? whats the res temps?? drop a frozen water bottle in there. not ice .. it will change the ph and ppm's use a water bottle it last longer.. res temps below 70's are perfect

Yup , make sure no direct light is penetrating ur res....

Like it was already mentioned, light and heat are the most likely culprits here.
