Beginning of Root Rot (Photos) - Alternate Solutions?

  1. Hey all! Constant lurker, only posted once or twice mainly for issues with my grow. New to Hydroponics and DWC, not new to growing. I am getting used to pHing down to 5.5 to account for the swing. My Reservoir temps have been 4-6 degrees higher than Id like which I believe may have led me down this path. I have been treating with a capful of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide with the regular nutes, using 3-Part Flora Series from GH but on the low end as this strain is Amnesia Haze Auto from NIRVANA & is known to be sensitive to nutrients. Adding 2 Tsp of Cal Mag in as well, all going into a 5-Gallon Bubbleponics setup. 3 questions I have are this.. should I insulate my Black 5 Gallon Bucket w/Bubblewrap Foil Insulation as Ive seen several members do here and is the difference noticeable? Also, I have white and black buckets, does a particular color absorb or reflect the heat better? We are entering summer here in New England and SWIM is fine with that as we have central A/C and the tent is actually in our "common area" where temps will never rise above 85 most likely ever. So the environment is usually 73° F res temp is usually between 73° F and 77° F. I started to add the Hydrogen Peroxide during week 3 as a prevention for root rot and to add oxygen and whiten up my roots. I am doing everything with GH and doing a sterile system so I figured that would work. Apparently it hasn't. Is it that I am just not adding enough of it into the 3.5 gal res? I just need advice on how to get rid of it ASAP as time is of the essence. DAY 23 and she us short for such a genetically historically tall plant, even the Ruderalis version of her. I have more Amnesia Autos germinating perfectly in Rockwool right now so restarting is not out of the question. Any input on her would be greatly appreciated. Some other nutrients I have on hand besides the Flora series is some Rhino Skin Stalk Strengthener (silica) and some GH RapidStart.... thanks all... its my destiny to master hydroponics, its just taking a while to become Legendary lol[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
