I had the most beautiful bright white roots in veg using cultured solutions nutes with uc roots.
Temp was prob about 65* in the res, no chiller but on cold basement floor...
I changed the res with a new batch of nutes with cold tap water i think it was like 54* (good water 30ppm) and a couple days later they were cream color when i looked, added a bunch more uc roots, the next day slime.... now it's starting to whiten up with new growth.
What do you think it was, the cold tap water? Maybe the 2ml per gallon i put in want enough at the change?
Its killing me because i know I'm not getting things to potential, i can clear it up no prob worth uc roots when it happens... it just slows things way down.
I don't have this problem in flower...
But am i unknowingly slowing things down there too by shocking the roots initially when i change the res with 54* water?
I'm thinking about getting a couple res' s one for veg one for flower so there isn't a temp shock to the roots, what do you think... id prob then use half res water half tap or whatever so the temp stayed more in the range it is in the system...
Thanks
I keep having this problem at res changes in veg
