Reason for panic? Mildew? Rot? Mycorrhizas? Or just new rooting?

Yea I'm sorry, root rot. It's bud rot time of the year, so I got it on my mind. Lol

Your roots don't look healthy imo. White fuzz is less concerning to me than the fact that all your roots look shriveled up and brown. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like to me. Maybe @rkymtnman can give some input?

Better pics would be beneficial. Any pruning now would be detrimental but you might not have a choice. I use bleach as a preventative.

I first saw this white fuzz attached to the inside of the "bucket" i dont see this in the reservoar. I cleaned it off with desinfectant last week.
Its the white fuzz i have immidiate concerns about, if its harmfull or benificial. The roots get discoloured like this from the nutritions i use. Discolouration happend last time also, no issues then tbh.

is he/she using anything for rot prevention? all i saw was nutes and rootbooster (which says to only use for 15 days at the beginning)

I'm guessing not but I don't know for sure. Op says their not worried about discoloration, only fuzzy white. From what I can see, it looks like roots are mostly dead. The only white fuzzy I've ever seen are root hairs. I figured if anyone could help it would be you. Your root game is always on point.
