Umm...chlorine?
i don’t think roots like it.Over 30 yrs of back pain management without ever having a pharmacist give me a bottle of pills. Thank you Mother Nature and all the hippies from the ‘60s that became weed-masters.

There is something in that reservoir that the roots don’t like. Your homemade chlorine solution sounds suspect. I used Hydroguard for my DWC grow and had zero root problems.

Howdy HydroBushDoctor, STOP USING THE CHLORINE SOLUTION, it's killing the plants!!!!! I use the city tap water, it has a tiny amount of chlorine in it, but not enough to kill off my plants. To prevent root rot and other unwanted organisms from growing in the reservoir, keep the water well aerated, cool (temperature between 62° F and 70° F), and block out ALL light leaks. One can also use the hydro-guard, but I prefer the other method (temp, air, and no light) for my grows.Smoke weed,.....grow peace!

Once you get the reservoir under control, be sure to keep us posted on root growth/recovery. 👍

update my plants recovered just fine they really didn't even get stunted much at all that I noticed roots started growing after I changed the reservoir and did not add chlorine solution. I guess when I made the solution I made it to concentrated thinking I would just add a couple mls instead of 5 0r 10. Its weird it did that tho because it was the same solution I used in my cloner and the roots developed fine in that. I'm just gonna stay away from chlorine in general from now on. thanks for your help
