Yup lower leaves are gonna die thats normal. But Leaves look nice and green.

How far do you have that light from the tops? It should be about 15-18 inches from the tops.

But good job on fixing the heat problems. also looks like there might be a little Nute burn, How much nutes are you useing? What brand?

The roots can be brown,white,yellowish or ivory. Those are all fine just as long as they are healthy.

Watch for little brown spots on the roots,That can my algy or root rot. Just keep a close eye : )
