root rot?

[Mr. Clandestine]

I know your not supose to post twice, but we've lost 3 more plants and I've tried everything that has been sugested. Original post is under root rot 2.......thanks

I've heard of people being able to tame root-rot and subsequent slime with Hygrozyme (or Hydrozyme - I can't remember exactly) and hydrogen peroxide. As for application rates and methods, I have no earthly idea... I know very little about hydro setups. But maybe this will help, or prevent it from happening again in your next grow. Sorry I couldn't offer more assistance, I'm just now starting to learn more about hydroponics.

I'll reiterate:

I don't think there is much you can do for them at this point; they'll either grow new roots... or they won't.

Remove any highly damaged areas carefully and then sit them in a tub with no nutrients, only a pHed solution of hydrogen peroxide and water. Hydroguard and hygrozyme are great products, but work primarily as a preventative measure , they aren't as great for fixing severe problems. H2O2 is great for the plants and will kill just about everything else in there.

Use some of the 35% hydrogen peroxide if you can because the 3% usually has additives. You want 5ml per gallon of 35%, or about 50ml per gallon of 3%. Still keep the stone bubbling in the solution and change the entire solution out about each 24 hours with fresh H2O2 and water.

Try it for a couple of days and see if you discern a difference.
