Yes, recovery is possible.
I haven't dealt with rootrot in hydro [yet] but a treatment with peroxide, followed by a treatment with cannazyme, should serve to a) halt the rot and then b) help clean up the dead root mass.
I don't know the application rates for these treatments. Someone who actually knows hydro will certainly be able to help you, which is why I am going to stick your thread in the hydro section.
Good luck!

Is cannaqzyme the same thing as Hygrozyme?? What exactly does it do. Once i had a root problem... I dont know if it was rot. But what happened was somehow some powered rooting hormone got mixed with water which i then poured in my mother's res. well about 3 days later i checked the res and it had grow this huge mass of jelly-like shit. It looked like a jellyfish was molesting my root system so i took the whole thing out and misted it with a garden hose. This was very stressful but it would have died without it. About a week later it started growing again and all the jelly was gone. But that freaked me out... It was gross and smelt weird... lesson learned: Don't fuck with hormones:thumbsup:
