Root rot on my RQS CRITICAL OHHH NO!

I haven’t argue as critical is 3 weeks old and been doing just fine got up this morning with a little case of root rot I am using hydro guard and protect 15 mL of each with plain pH water to try to flush any other suggestions

That’s supposed to say I have a rqs critical

What are your water and air temps…? :wink:

:v: :sunglasses:

Water temp has never gotten above 69 to 71 room temperature has never gotten above 75 or below 68 I keep a 12in 3 speed normal oscillating fan blowing from the bottom up through the plant blowing the heat off of the light the very tops of the plants under the light the canopy has never seen attempt over 78 degrees a few minutes ago I just ordered a 6-inch inline fan with carbon filter the place at the top of the plant to see if I can pull a little more off I have plenty of space and my viparspectra 300 doesn’t put off that much light and the buckets are completely blacked out and this happened about 10 hours a day or a reservoir change before that they were just as nice as could be the plant itself is showing no signs of stress

My room temps get up to 80 deg with no issues and I run rdwc units with no issues… :wink:


I use GH 3 part nutrients with Humboldt additives with no issues… :wink:
+hydroguard and orca… :wink:

Was that a 6.19 realized it liked it a little closer 2 5.7 to 5.9 ppm is at 550

I keep pH as close to 5.5 as possible , but let it drift for a couple of days before fixing it back to 5.5… :wink:
Ppm Is close to 700 for these girls… I will slowly increase this as time goes on… :wink:

Yeah yesterday was my second Reservoir change on it and I had it at 500 and was going to go ahead and take it to 750 but when I got up this morning the root rot was showing which there was no sign of it at all last night they were just as healthy as the other ones that I have so I instantly did a reservoir change add a little more protect and a little more hydraguard and lower the PPM back down to the 500 to 550 I will increase again once root problem dissipates
