OK this is my first grow. I read up on everything I could b4 starting.
I got all the way to the 4th week of flower b4 running into a problem.
I searched everywhere, but couldn't find anyone with the same problem.
I have 2 plants tied down (lst) in a small closet, 400w hps, dwc, 10gal res, GH nutes.

I neglected my plants for about a week and when I looked at them the water was real low and much of the roots not submerged looked like they had fuzzy white stuff on them....
ALL the lower 1/4 of the leaves shriveled up and died, I then noticed that that the stem was turning white from the the bottom to half way up the plant. It's like spots of white covering the lower part of the stem....growing upwards....it looks like some type of disease, mold, fungus...I'm not sure.
The canope, the top 1/3 of the plant looks great, but I'm afraid cause it looks like the disease is growing up the plant.

So I changed out the water and nutes hoping they would recover. I also added som h202 hoping this would help. Not knowing how much to use, I added 25ml to the 10gal res.
It hurts to get this far and to start loosing my plants.
Someone please help me save my plants.
