Ok i got some root rot going on im on day 2 of flower right now and changed my res 2 days ago but the root rot got really bad yesterday. I bought some hydrogen peroxide today. My res is suppose to be filled with 6 gallons of water so i was told to dump my res and all the nutes. Clean the res and then add just phed water and hydrogen peroxide. How much hydrogen peroixde do i add to 6 gallons of water?? Also how long do i run just hydrogen peroide and water before dumping the res and adding my nutes back?? I was also told not to cut the dead roots casue it will slow growth. But the dead roots are long and slimy i have a bunch of new white roots coming through the net pot so i feel like cutting would get the nasty ones gone and let the new ones come through nice and clean. But i was told not to cut any roots. Any suggestions on what to do would be greatly appreciated. Need some help as i want to take care of this asap before it effects my babies to much Here is the link to my grow journal there are some pics of the roots on one of the last two pages so u can see what they look like. Thanks people

i normally would run 1tsp per gallon of water at max..

i would not cut dead roots and ther peroxide will help with the slime..

good luck and sorry nobody responded sooner.

1 response per 60 views is the norm. This is the world wide web...15 views is nothing.

In talking with some guys I trust regarding brown roots due to Fungus Gnats, they said to remove that old rotting root system. I say get rid of them.

Dude my buddy does the DWC and he had some root rot on his girls that were 2-3 weeks old and he just cut the bad parts off. I was shocked but it worked like a charm. Roots will grow back mixing this and that in the res can mess up your ph and son on so I liked his aproach. straight to the point.
