I honestly don't think the color matters as long as they are healthy but it's nice to look at that for sure

White roots make it so if there is a issue you can catch it faster than if they was stained and dyed.. and who knows maybe the dye could affect how the roots intake ...I prefer to have white roots but to each their own.....And not like I'm doing anything specific to make roots white so doesn't cost me anything to have pearly white roots so fine with me...
I also run clean nutes as well since cultured solutions the water is still clear after adding veg A...And my cal mag I run cal nit and mgso4 dry instead so fresh n so clean clean ....And jacks hydro is clear too which dry nutes is thee way to grow....And very cheap and will last a lifetime u can get 25lb for like 80 ship I believe it is

Ditto with +Life from hydroponic-research.com/product/life/ (a blend of bacteria and fungi )

Gives a very slight brown tinge when viewed from just the right angle, in just the right light; but zero slime.

Its the humic in there that stains the roots. Pure blend pro does it too.

MIMedGrower · Dec 10, 2019

Thank you. I have the same problem with lockups and burns with. Oth new bags of ocean forest. And i went back to the large perlite for the newest bag so unless 4 bags from different shipments were all bad its me or the environment or the water.

I have had problems during seasonal transition times which mean environment or water.

But my water ec never changes. I should send out a sample to the university extention. I live in farm land. Its cheap.

But i am leaning to my very humid and cold basement in winter under the growroom. I may be over and underfeeding die to their changing root temps. But it never lasted this long before.

Now im babbling. What a bitch. Lol

I know. Just i usually figure out these things quickly.

It has cut my production to 1/3. I will go out of business so to speak. This isnt a hobby for me its meds.

I think i will set up my 4x8 gorilla shorty tent i bought 2 years ago and never set up with an oil radiator heater at the end and re set up down there a while.

I will clean the hell out of this sick room. It has run perpetually every day for 5 years.

Take away the possible causes until i find the real cause.

I would have done it months ago but my back problem grounded me.

Yeah I can understand that frustration.. my soil grow is just about done... Guess what smarty pants did and the was wondering why the fuck bud production was underwhelming. Like I said I go once a week but you think one of those times it would click that the pots are sitting on concrete .. a big no no to start with. Yeah root zone temps went to shit once winter blew in as we are near -30c now just realized last week and the bud production is not something I can recover.

The sad part is when I was setting it I up told buddy I have to get the pots off the floor but will do that next time. Well next time never came and I shit the bed. Bad part is we split cause I give him everything and it my equipment but my overconfidence and arrogance cost him a significant amount of bud.

Hey look we both have shit to bitch about.

Anyone else care to get in on this?

Without the shit, garbage claw your way back out that doomsday ditch days... The good ones wouldn't feel nearly as great. I find myself I just need to put on that face of I'm gonna beat this bitch, put my head down and as painful as it can be mentally and physically drive through it. Usually by the time it's done and I get to relax I'm back in the bed recouping and back in the dumps but hey those few days of triumph are enough to do it all over again
