HI this is my first grow set up

Everything is looking pretty good but I am getting brown roots not much but a little and the bucket in the photo has bubbly slim I am using flora series nutes I am keeping the nutes low at around 5.0ppm they are only 1 week under light 2 weeks old from seed I am using filtered water keeping my ph at 5.5/5.9 and I am adding flora bloom half strength. my water temps are around 74to79. the light is a 400 watt mh 24hours my humidity stays at 42 to 52% at 72 to77 degrees I have an air conditioner venting into the room as the pic shows any help with the brown root starting build up.any how I hope I am doing this right I have done a lot of research to make this right any replies are welcome

The brown slime is bad and so is the brown root tips. Means there is a fungus growing sterilize the bucket and do a sterilize rinse of the roots they will come back but so may the slime. If your using tap water let it sit out for an extra day or two you'll see if the slim builds on the water surface after sitting for about four days. Good start. just try to keep using sanitized equipment so the problem doesn't come back. Im not sure if the slime is fungal or not I watched a few video's on youtube about it and dwc systems. They say more bubbles and movement keeps that from getting ahold. GL mate sub'd

very pro grow bro haha. although it might be said there was a fair amount of stretch in ur plants, perhaps consider transplanting soon and burying, then lower ur light, ur ur running an aircon through the room you can afford to have ur 400wMH about 6 - 10 inches from fan leaves. brown roots may indicate that they are getting light, make sure ur roots are in complete darkness.

ok, if u got slime from infection u should look into A. boiling the water first, or using distilled battery water, tap water will always contain a certain amount of microflora which if left stagnant or untreated, will grow

Not seeing any problems. Make sure your buckets are 100% light proof - spray them with FlexSeal or wrap a few layers of tape around them. This will help with any slime at the roots.

yes as this is my first grow I will now post stuff more the last site I was using never replied to anything I put up so yea I am here to stay these are some pics of me making my room from scratch

homegrown I am not running my exhaust I have ac running to it and it keeps my temps and everything perfect do you guys think that I do need to run my exhaust?

and the thing about them being stretched they were in germenation phase and the dam things shot up to 6 inches in my little dome they have barely got any taller since under light lol how do I control there height when they are in the dome I took them straight to the bucket without seeing any roots coming out the rockwool I was scared they would get a foot tall before I saw roots come out the bottom if you look at 1 of my pics it is when I first put them in bucket and there tall as shit

ok so here is an update I have topped them all I toped them when they were 2 leaves above the starter leaves and that is the results and I also bent them all the way over on the side and the stock is double in size since they had to grow straight up again I am u sing flora series nutes my water is still getting foam in it I also went and got a beast air pump and big round air stone they are in dwc I flushed them yesterday with ph water cause the roots look not the best before that they were starting to get brown so I put hydrogine peroxide in my water about 2 table spoons got my roots looking really white but the stupid foam came back I think it is from when I changed everything my water was kinda warm or something so I decided to flush so today I will be putting them back on full nutes my light is 400 watt mh my temps are 45%hum and 77degrees this is my first time doing this why I went with dwc my first grow I will never get but hey I am here and not going to bad so far all together I spent probably under 1k and my water temp is staying around 73 degrees but to get it there I have a fan blowing on it with the air conditioner vent being sucked in the fan so that's how I keep my water cooled any ways I will be posting each week till my final weigh in so any questions or any advice I will be keeping this post updated anyhow its 420 somewhere

ok so I guess I will try one last time to get advicethats how my water looks after 2nd day of fresh nutes my water temp is staying around 73 I am using filter tap water my nutes are flora series my ppm is at 6.4 my ph was at 5.8 yesterday today it was 8.5 I am using 400 watt mh light my temp in room stays at 70 to 77 and my humidity stays between 44and 54% any advice would really be helpful so I don't go out and buy the wrong thing my air pump is a beast and I got 6 inch round air stones also have a ac running to my setup I am not running ventilation cause my temps and humidity inside stay perfect any how that's what I got pls help a fellow grower

now my air hose come thru the top of the lid may be some light could be getting thru hell I don't no anything lol

looking sharp dude try get ur humidity up to about 65 for veg

turn air pump down a bit, have you got a filter system? i would get a small fish tank water filter and run a long piece of that hose through an air con duct or something then back into ur tank.
