Wait. No hurry to get rid of them. Once there are several branches above them you can clip them back.

Seems to be doing a hell of a lot better now that I changed the water and killed the top feed. When I took the top off the bucket, I noticed two white roots about 6 inches long lol.

Very nice! Looking much better.
I personally would cut off the brown stuff. They probably aren't doing much photosynthesis like that, they look like shit, and you plant is over it, as evidenced by healthy new growth. I wouldn't want to have to keep looking at them, wondering if my plant still felt that way.

Holy shit this plant is taking off!!! I'm assuming it will continue to grow like this all the way to the end??

You need to cover your basket with aluminum foil ASAP. I can see openings along the top of the clay marbles. Root issues will plague you if you allow light in through those openings.

Or add more hydroton until the holes are covered.
But yes, that is what happy leaves look like. Nice save!

Can’t help on the peroxide question as I’ve never used it. Also can’t get hydroguard in Canada.
Like SoOrbudgal said, nice recovery.

Yes, you can use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect your roots. Some people keep it in their reservoir and maintain a sterile tank, meaning NO bacteria. You'll have to find the recipe to dilute it properly, and let it gas off for a few days before you add your hydrogaurd. It will fall apart to water and Oxygen soon enough.
But some are about to chime in that you shouldn't put "chemicals" in your reservoir. I know we can't all be chemistry majors, and it's a common misconception to think that "chemicals" are all the same kinds of "chemicals" as, say, polychlorinated benzenes or phthalates (nasty stuff), when in fact, some "chemicals" are sodium phosphate (like in urine and quano) or calcium carbonate (Tums and limestone), naturally occuring minerals which are, in fact, plant nutrients. Even bleach falls apart in solution to sodium, chlorine and oxygen.
YYCannabis can you get Great White or Mykos in Canada? Other brands of beneficial bacteria. Also check the garden section for non-pot-specific bacteria.

DingusKhan I’d have to check. Local hydro shop only has some Enzyme Komplete or some such thing.

I'm fixing to do a water change now and my hydroguard comes in Tuesday so I'm thinking It should be alright. I have to say thanks again to everyone for everything. She's made a complete turn around and growing at an ALARMING rate lol. Just wish I knew what strain it is lol. I'll post more pics tomorrow.
