ok i moved to a place that is pretty dry and around 10k feet up above sea lvl.been having problems and could'nt fig out why as im a really clean know what im doing type of grower.anyways i run dwc,1k light per 4 plants fim'd an nutes,hygrozime,f1,h2,st,b52,vho,carbo load,so on as needed.
kept buying clones only to have them not take off and end up dying.had a real big plant going really nice,so at first i thought it was bad clones i.e root rot as it kept looking as if the roots were dying off and the dead roots would be floating in the water and a brownish build up would be around the rim on top around the water. then all the sudden my big nice plant i had going goes limp 1 day.i was like wtf? everything looked clean in that bucket.i ended up cutting her down and breaking the root ball open to find what looks to have been rotted inside with on top of that white/grey fuzz,mold maybe?it stunk really bad almost like a dead body or something to the effect. anyways i was thinking root rot?
so then i set up these 2 buckets with water and st as i was about to stick some cuttings i had rooting in them.i let them sit for 2 days with air stones in them no roots no nothing.and as you will see in the pics i post i have no clue what it is? it's not slimmy like algae i keep all rez's light proof so?? can pythium grow in buckets of water with no roots?
about my water it's a well and had no filter at all none.idk how the owner got away with this but i went and bought a sediment filter and hooked it to the 1 faucet i draw water from.my base ppm's went from 35 to 18.im thinking it's gotta be the water?what else could it be?anyways here's the pics.
