that pump or whatever seems to be causing it.

Those roots look healthy... does that pump run warm? What nutes are you using?

That is for sure from your clay balls. LOL. That color is coming from your hydroton. Nothing to worry about. If you are concerned you can rinse them off with the appropriate water. Remember no tap water.

Like windy said, discoloration isn't necessarily a sign that it's root
rot as there are many different additives and such that can change
the colors. The best way to tell is to look for a slime on your roots
and see how they smell. If it smells like dying ass, it's probably root
rot.

Alright!!! Thanks fellas!! I have the res at about 72 degrees, which i know is on the warmer side. (I will be using a larger rubber maid with extra insulation starting tomorrow) I already put in an ice pack every 10 hours or so, but Im on it. Yeah the res doesnt smell and I am using Fox Farm which will turn the roots a brown color. I do appreciated the help, thanks fellas. PEACE
