Liquid Karma, Floralicious Plus= Dark Roots???

[MaryJaneMonkey]

Hello, I recently added some additives to my 6" clones and their roots went from:

many, many shorty, white, fishbone looking roots to

a few tan, with some brown in the middle, long (about 1') thin roots with white at the very bottom.

I took the roots and flushed them and got most of the crap out so they look whitish tan, no more funk.

Was this caused by the additives, and what should the roots look like throughout the grow process....

Many thanks.

I have the same thing when I use the Liquid Karma!! I am using the Rainforect 318, aeroponics, the roots look like they are covered in algea. I am thinking of taking the Karma out of my next water change, 5 more days, to see if it is causing it. I'll post about my findings.....

Yes LK makes the roots a darker color. No it is not a problem

Jefferson, thanks for the info on this. Kinda scarry when you see what it looks like.

If it rinses off with plain (ph correct) water it's just staining. If the roots don't wash clean and are slimy dark looking then that's different.
