Too many plants, should I kill one?

My grow room is pretty packed and I haven't even flowered yet cuz I had root rot. I have 1900 watts but not at full strength yet. I was told I need to double my Wattage. The root rot looks like it's coming back on one so should I just kill it? If I killed it I would take clones and put them in my new grow box. I'd probably get rid of the big one in the hydro and take that LED out or something. So I would have 1600 watts if I did that. Will I have enough space if I don't kill any

IMO kill it but yes take clones if you like. Root rot destroyed a few of my plants in the past during flowering and smells horrible. If you don't want to kill it but just want to save space,tie them down preferably away from each other. If you were using soil id say R.I.P

C'mon man...If you went through all that time and $$$ and do not know the answer here...You need to do some reading!. You have a great looking grow and don't really need us to help. I think you are phishing for props on your grow. SO, I will oblige...fantastic looking grow!!!

What do you mean more wattage to kill it, root rot is from like sitting water or no Oxygen in dwc, I wouldn't kill anything if it dies it dies but many times plants come back even when you think you pushed them to the end, research why your getting it so you can prevent it for the future. good luck growing

My bad I wasn't clear, I was told I should get another light when I switch to flower but idk if that was just someone trying to sell me a light.
The root rot has been a long battle. I thought it was gone but it's coming back. I need to go into flower. It's just annoying at this point. I have h2o2 and a chiller and air stones. I covered it in that reflective bubble wrap insulation. So it's light proof too. I'm using advanced nutrients. I moved three to soil but I don't even think i will have the room if I let things keep growing to save the one I kept in hydro It's already halfway to the ceiling and it's been topped to. The plant won't fit in the box I made either. I'm still in veg

are you using the home depot 27 gallon totes?
Yeah I put reflectix on the lid. And then I cut out a hole for my 5 gallon bucket and wrapped that in black tape over foil. I'm cooling tap water and then using that to chill my nutes, it works I checked. That way I don't have to worry about keeping any tubes clean. It was in RDWC now it's in 5 gal DWC.
Roots looked bad yesterday and worse today. It was doing great for like a week that why I kept it in hydro

just keep adding h2o2 to it and keep the chiller running, water should be about 58-65f and start flowering it. it should make it to the end,yeild may be smaller but youll get something for the time spent

Will it affect potency or taste? Should I stop using ANs benificials and just run it sterile to the end? I'm still gunna clone some of it incase

The H2o2 will kill all bacteria in the res and keep it sterile. As for Potency and taste, I dont believe the H2o2 will affect either but I cant say either way. The Stress and uptake of nutes due to root damage may affect it. You could make BHO or Hash from the plant. The plant could fully recover and make some nice buds. I would run half strength nutes until it recovers.
Good Luck
