Go away for a week to come home and find one of my plants just about dead!! This is a new system about 6 weeks in veg everything was going fine, had someone check them Wednesday all was good, got home yesterday to find one looking very ill! Looked like it had not been watered, obviously not because it's in water 24/7!
Lifted the lid to find the roots have grown into the 4 32mm returns and slightly blocking flow so the water level was half way up the net pot! So much for upgrading to this system from 25lt pots to stop roots blocking flow..! I drained half the water from the system last night hoping to wake this morning to the plant stading tall again...but no!
Ph, ec, water temps all bang on, other plant doing great.
I'm guessing the stem as maybe started to rot and the plant isn't taking anything up.
Is there anything I can do to save her or is she a goner!
(Roots are stained brown and not rot)
