I don't know. They might bounce back, but it will probably take time.

I dont think they r going to bounce back. pretty far off.Jjust be a waste of time nutrients and electricity. You are in to crucial time period for the plant to really get anything from them. Three weeks isnt to far into it too start over. not like your if you were trying to salvage some big ass nugs.
what was your water temps. suppoesed to stay 68-74 degrees the closer to 68 the better

When you use your aero setup again you should for sure use 35% hydrogen peroxide at 2ml a gallon. Some use 5-7ml a gallon but I've found its not necessary. I add twice per week on monday and on thursday. Also I would bet you are not getting a good drain back and low oxygen water sitting on roots is what rotted your plants. I would fix this two ways, first just increase the angle a little more to help push the water to the end, and add some reflective material to the top and sides to help redirect light, I had light go threw with my hps and not under the flouros and it threw me for until I realized the light was leaking in from the white plastic fence posts. My resevoir was at 66-68 but the runoff still in the grow chamber was about 76-78 when measured but after adding the reflective material dropped to 70-72. If you haven't trashed them yet you could try some hormex, root excelurator, micro, h2o2 to see if you can get them to come back. I had a buddy in week 5 with worse looking plants than that bounce back good enough he only lost about 20 grams a plant in yield in an aero setup with that mix. If you want the mix ratios let me know.
