OK good job my man ,now that's lookin like a res I could live in , i did want you to wait and soak her for a few days in the H2o2 but I fell asleep without saying it. apology's none the less your on your way again.as mentioned earlier you will need help with those nutes as well because your mix is very hot, look at it this way, 600 ppm right is what you should be landing on as a full adult in Bloom not many people exceed this limit before starting to Dial back for flush .Obviously i wouldn't really say that unless i knew what meter you were using.

Thank you for your help. PH is 5.5,Ppm is 230.

And although the the roots still look brown, they are not slimy, mushy, and they dont easily pull off.

Your very welcome bro ,and i can see already shes on the mend! just remember to get help with dose's on nutes and additives.because thats where your next demon will be at. . just tag if you need more help as i may not check back right away GL man.
Those ppms will be perfect by the way for now while shes healing. just up it and keep adding a bit of h2o2 everyday to keep it going it dosnt work for to long. And of course remember don't add bennies or anything like great white into the res with H2o2 because it will just wipe them out.

Hmmmmm.
So Derek says fungi, and Indica says h2o2. My last 2 fails I have used fungi. As I understand it, the colder the res the less beneficial the bacteria/fungi is. They don't survive very long in cold environments. Am I correct in saying this?
On the flip side, I have been told h2o2 makes your roots brittle and not to use it continually in your res.

Also almost everything I have read has said to have your water level about 1" below your net pot? I am not doubting your knowledge on it, but you guys are saying keep it level with or slightly above the bottom of the net pot? Could someone fill me in as to why I am to keep it level? As I said, most of my reading says not to.

I'm not well versed with H2o2 because i only use it as a last line of defence if things go bad due to my temps or whatever and suffer no i'l fate i can only speak of my own exp with it. but what you maybe referring to is semi/full grows which i don't do. h2o2 is definitely fine to run for weeks on end if need be that i know for sure but of course at correct doses. the rot is still there which means the bacteria is also ,bennies can help fungi will not it depends on which course of action to take but in your case i would go for h2o2 because its an extreme case at the moment.this is my take on it and I'm pretty sure @derek420colorado would agree most likely.but wait for him to chime in on that
As @derek420colorado also mentioned to me in a different discussion you can pack the net with fungi and keep the level low so it dosnt get washed out fungi isn't bennies and needs a home being the root crown. which brings me to your next Q.

I like to keep mine just above the bottom in the hydroton. ideally one would be using rhyzocore tops which I've just learned about myself.the main aim really is to make sure the solution level dosnt go over the root crown to the base of the stem or she'll drown.also you get salt buildup in the hydroton which may or may nott effect the grow and for the reasons posted in the above question.

So Let me see if I got this straight.
It is OK to continually run h2o2 at the correct dose with no ill effect on the plant. At the same time I can use use fungi (ie. Great white.) To coat my roots from the top just under my Rockwool cube and this will be OK and not get washed out into the res? Also this will not kill off the fungi living there?
And the correct res level is even with or just above the bottom of the net pot so long as your not drowning the root crown?

I am here. foggy brained as hell cause I have been swingin a hammer all day, but long story short. If you have rot h2o2 then try and get a little MF in the top of the roots after you have done an h2o2 treatment

Yes it is fine at the correct dose and but wouldn't put the level about the base of the net if your intention is to flood the net with Mfungi. since you have the MF on hand i would def use it in that way myself. I would personally run the H2o2 for at least 3 days then hit it with bennies and flood the net with MF putting the solution level slightly below the net. ..and @derek420colorado just beat me to it hehe.

yep spot on, be very careful on how much h2o2 you use cause it can sizzle your roots

 

[Budz81]

Ok so just below the net with bennies up top. After a 3day flood with h2o2. I only have 3% walmart kind. The good stuff won't be here for a couple of days. Can I pour 3% directly through the net?
