Brown roots, don't think it's root it. (Could be)

Brown roots.jpg

The roots are perfectly health throughout the whole pot, but as soon as they break out of them holes in the bottom they seem to turn brown and die within a day..The bottom of the pot is sitting in the top of a reservoir with about 10cm between them and the water in the res.

I use Peroxide in the res for oxygen but it didn't make any difference. This is really annoying me as i know she can still grow larger but is getting forced to stop because of this shitty root problem. Any advice will be appreciated and thanks in advance!

looks like air pruning, which would be normal in soil, but for hydro, kinda wird. they look like airpruned roots though. im a soil guy, but maybe theyre too dry. good luck

don't be fuckin smart asses if you can't help, obviously if you read it says they die when they grow outta the holes. (and you can see the brown roots sticking out...)

cheers gotigers0420 , but a friend told me it could be because they're to wet all the time.. so now I'm in a position where its one or the other :S

maybe some more feedback could help do i drill more holes or do i water more?
