fuck man the rot got me hell it got me good brotha, never got around to goin to get the magic bullet now i figured out why my agent orange was not "filling in" cuz it was filled in lol fuckin root rot raped my root ball so hard, my nugs TINY as hell, but you can tell they woulda been huge if i had not had root rot, they are fuckin LONG lol like a good 4-7 inches long depending if they had just not gotten root rot and girthed out.... oh well next time, the trichomes are there and what i did get is gonna get me FUCKED UP, check my thread for pics.

it ate something like 120 clones. Had pythium, thought it was gone, and then got it again in the next round of cuttings. Managed to kill all my mothers during this point in time too. I'm basically going to be waiting around for a few months for new mothers to grow.

thanks every body for the suport spent all day building the new rooms lol dam! im wooped :)

as for the pythium I cant stress the power of the the tea!! im not even using h202 or bleach
anymore just tea!

pics will be up of some of the action at hand!

Pythium

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
For the ancient city named Pythium, see Pythion.
Pythium Scientific classification Kingdom: Chromalveolata Phylum: Heterokontophyta Class: Oomycetes Order: Pythiales Family: Pythiaceae Genus: Pythium
Pringsheim, 1858 Species See text

Pythium is a genus of parasitic oomycete. Most species are plant parasites, but Pythium insidiosum is an important pathogen of animals. Because this group of organisms were once classified as fungi, they are sometimes still treated as such.

[edit] Morphology

HyphaePythium, like others in the family Pythiaceae, are usually characterized by their production of coenocytic hyphae, hyphae without septations.OogoniaGenerally contain a single oosporeAntheridiaContain an elongated and club-shaped antheridium [edit] Ecological importance

Pythium root rot is a common crop disease caused by a genus of organisms called Pythium. These are commonly called water moulds. Pythium damping off is a very common problem in fields and greenhouses, where the organism kills newly emerged seedlings.[1] This disease complex usually involves other pathogens such as Phytophthora and Rhizoctonia. Pythium wilt is caused by zoospore infection of older plants leading to biotrophic infections that become necrotrophic in response to colonization/reinfection pressures or environmental stress,[1][2][3] leading to minor or severe wilting caused by impeded root functioning.[1][4]
Pythium in turfgrass
Many Pythium species, along with their close relatives, Phytophthora species are plant pathogens of economic importance in agriculture. Pythium spp. tend to be very generalistic and unspecific in their host range. They infect a large range of hosts,[5] while Phytophthora spp. are generally more host-specific.
For this reason, Pythium spp. are more devastating in the root rot they cause in crops, because crop rotation alone will often not eradicate the pathogen (nor will fallowing the field, as Pythium spp. are also good saprotrophs, and will survive for a long time on decaying plant matter).
It has been noted that in field crops, damage by Pythium spp. is often limited to the area affected, as the motile zoospores require ample surface water to travel long distances. Additionally, the capillaries formed by soil particles act as a natural filter and effectively trap many zoospores. However, in hydroponic systems inside greenhouses, where extensive monocultures of plants are maintained in plant nutrient solution (containing nitrogen, potassium, phosphate, and micronutrients) that is continuously recirculated to the crop, Pythium spp. cause extensive and devastating root rot and is often difficult to prevent or control.[1][4][5][6] The root rot affects entire operations (tens of thousands of plants, in many instances) within two to four days due to the inherent nature of hydroponic systems where roots are nakedly exposed to the water medium, in which the zoospores can move freely.[4][5][6]
Several Pythium species, including P. oligandrum, P. nunn, P. periplocum, and P. acanthicum are mycoparasites of plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes, and have received interest as potential biocontrol agents.

woah, massive double post lol. The Pythium that most people refer to is root rot, or that whitish slime looking stuff that grows in peoples reservoirs. There is more than one kind, so it's kind of a broad term. When Hellraiser talks about teas he is talking about adding good bacteria to your res so that the good bacteria, or "bennies" will eat the old dead vegitation. This will in turn starve out the pythium. In theory anyway.

What is the tea you use? I'm using aquashield right now, and hopefully it keeps the garbage out of the res. It's basically a tea, but I'm sure I'm paying a lot more than you are for it.
