I have been fighting this problem for a little bit now and feel that I have it under control.
How I got root rot - the Res water temp in a DWC went over 75f I now have a chiller, chilling the water to 64f - 66f.
Step I have taking to cure the roots -
1. Hygrozyme - did not really see anything changes.
2. Started with small amounts of H2O2 (few ml), it helped but not enough. So I stepped up the amouth of H2O2 to ~120ml (1/2cup) the plants seem to like to but further reading I find it kills good and bad stuff.
3. Well Iam now still using H2O2 slowing down the amount and tried Hygrozyme again (this product makes the res foam up). And I started using SM90 (18ml - 7g). I have cut all the long rooted roots as I feel they cant be cured and only causeing my problems.
So can this battle be won, anyone every one? or do you have to deal with it or control to the end?
