First time DWC

[MuskieMan]

This is my first attempt at growing with DWC. I have had a few successful grows in soil but wanted to give DWC a try. For now I have been using Flora Nova nutrients
because that is what I have. My roots are turning brown or the same colour as the nutrient solution. It doesn’t seem to be affecting the plants in any way, but am I
creating a problem later on in the grow?

What is the best nutrients to use? Muskie Man

You are going to love dwc. I use Dyna-gro in my dwc set up. I used General Hydroponics years ago and it made the roots brown. It didn't hurt the plant. Good luck !!

some nutrient mixes will do that but keep an eye on it. Typically if the coloration is from a problem you'd start to see it very soon.

Thanks Eliot Pryer, the plant looks super healthy and growing like a weed... Muskie Man

Thanks Divish, I am checking daily on the plant and it looks healthy. PH fluctuates some but settles in at around 6.3 and I maintain the water at 1 inch below the net pot... Muskie Man
