PROBLEM: One plant Death (WW) (Severe Wilting from rot root) and it's happening to another plant (SLH).
Lights: 1 x Blackstar UFO UV 135W, 1 x CFL 2700K 120W
Temperatures: Max 80°, Min 73
Relative Humidity: 49% min, 62% max
Current PH of SLH: 5.98 (Yesterday 5.73)
PH of WW when removed: 5.23 @ 1582 ppm
Nutrients: GH Flora Line Lucas Formula + Calmag + Hygrozyme
Nutrient Change every 3 days @ 1200 PPM
Pots: 2 Gallon Coolers adapted to fit 2" net pots filled with hydroton pebbles.


I had a perfectly healthy looking White Widow wilted in a 12 hour window. The picture of the roots was taken 2 days before. But when the lights went on it was like a stick with a green dress and the roots were brownish and compacted, I reckon a tear was dropped. Tried treating with H2o2 with no avail but at the end it was rot at the base of the stem, brow color, smelled like shit, she was done. I have another plant in the closet that's starting to wilt too and showing similar signs.. I used this round coolers as it's a quest to find black square pales with a lid that you could use for DWC, try it!!. I do have the doubt if this could've been the lights work.. it's intense and I had it like 4 " over the top (not recommended) the leaves didn't look burned, they just gave up the next day.. the thing is it's not recovering. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

you got a fan going with fresh air? you could prune lower branches to get new growth in vegetative, even just the temperature of the solution if its too cold could cause problems .
roots can build up in hydro its better to remove dead discolored roots. flush it regularly
