So i've got DWC buckets, plants seem happy (normal growth), however i just started using liquid karma with my nutes (fox farm). My roots are fuzzy and look pretty happy but the roots submerged in the bubbling nutes have a brownish color on them. Not slimy. So i thought i'd heard somewhere that liquid karma can do this and it's not a big problem. However if it's not a common thing any ideas? could it be the fox farm big bloom?
thanks for any response!!!!!

if the nute solution is dark than it might just be dying the roots. my roots turn brow because of my nute solution.

Yep ,
L/K will do that to the roots , no fear .
If you got root rot you'll know it . Stinks like hell .

thanks all, good to know, i did a quick pre 12/12 flush yesterday and sure enough everything is indeed fuzzy and bright white today. so indeed the LK or fox farm are just staining my roots. anyone know how to upload pics so i can show off? thanks and some points to everyone!!!

Ive heard the word Nute or Nutes thrown around the threads, some clarification on what this is. Veteran soil grower, brand new to hydroponics!
