Hello friends, yesterday I had a power failure, which meant that my air pump at DWC did not work ... the plant was very flat and it smells slightly rotten (slightly rotten) Now the electricity is back and everything works as it should, but I don't know if the plant will pick up itself or if I should take it out of the DWC and "dry" it apart from a bucket of water. Please help me quickly because every minute counts .. thank you

Kinda sounds like your roots died. Got pics of the roots?

Change the water out with clean tap water. Don't use any nutrs at the moment. Cause you may need to dump and clean it again.

Spray the plant with some water to keep it alive for now.

Roots are not looking so healthy. Yeah. May be a lost cause. You are at the start of flower. Having a huge issue now is going to screw everything up.

See what other people say. But saving that plant is not going to be easy.

Help me understand.
Do you have a reservoir with an air pump to keep the solution aerated? I cant see how not having the air pump working for a while would cause the problem you have. Maybe I don't understand. I have been using a pond pump to fertigate my plants from a 17 gallon reservoir without a air pump. The plants are starting the 2nd week of flower and look great. No air pump.

Well, I don't know how I can answer this question, the plant was just fine all the time and when the air stone did not give air for a few hours, what we see in the picture happened

Read his post. Dwc.
It must have been more than a few hours or your water is way too hot or you aren't clearing the old water out or both

I have already read it, honestly I have no idea how it is that he does not use aeration and it is ok, but the leaves fell right away ...
