Aquaman, thank you for the input. I followed your thread and proceeded with all the steps. It was pretty nasty slime everywhere.
Here's the picture before&after cleaning.

Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to repeat the step 3 & 4 from your thread and had to skip the day. And as a result, I got even more severe rot. This time about 70% of all plants got this disease. Huge bummer especially after replacing the res water and adding "Great White" as beneficial microbes.
Hope it will shed some light. for the res mix this time I used:

1. Grow A & B from Emerald Harvest
2. Sturdy Stalk from Emerald Harvest
3. Great White

Also, I found it suspicious that comparing to the condition when I spotted it a couple of days ago rot started to originate in the bottom areas mostly. Moreover, the new solution mix became incredibly dirty with a sort of a foam floating above (mix is one day fresh, RO water)

On the previous mix I used:

1. Liquid Karma
2. Voodoo Juice (about 60-70% of the recommended amount)
3. Grow A & B from Emerald Harvest
4. Sturdy Stalk from Emerald Harvest

For now, I'll keep rinsing roots with tap water for 3 more days but I really afraid for the plants because so far root condition became only worse.
Maybe I should switch nutrition to the chemical one?
