brown roots from nutes?

is it possible for your nutes to turn your roots brown?

mine are brownish yellow but the plants look amazing and the rooots have about doubled in size this week.

yes nutes can stain
light can stain roots also
root rot also but roots will be mushy and slimy

mine were colored brownish but not bad cuz it was root bound 5th week flowering n had to translpant so if you ever need to do cuz the pots 2 small transplant it any ways no mater what size it is..IMO

my first reservoir got colored roots so i got materials to fight rot and it looks horrible. it had stunted growth so i thought that's what it was. the second reservoir has the same thing but is growing super fast still. i have hygrozyme and sm-90 which fight rot in it but in smaller amounts.

i use GH nutes and that dam micro turnes mine a diffrent color all the time....u can do a flush with regular water for a day and the roots will return not to a bleach white but def not brown color...

Look at nute mixture before you put it in or mix it in a gallon before you put it in and make a note of the color. Those nice white roots are just waiting for something to stain them. They are a blank canvas!

k, then i definitely did just overreact with my first reservoir. luckily the plants are still very saveable and even if those aren't i have 3 larger ones in a different res. to tide me over. thanks guys, and gals.

thanks for thehelp my first time bubble bucket and i could figure out why the roots were brown colored but plants lookd good i use GH though and apparantly llugatz has experienced the same thing

couldnt* figure out
