Hello I have tomato that is in DWC.. The systemis desingned that a pump brings the water into the bottom side of the DWC.. I have noticed that my tomatto roots are brownish.. I have added a filter to the pump to avoid pumping the dirts.. How I can save my plant? Is there a solution for the brownush rot roots? |

accumulation of sediment from your system on the roots it's a norm for any DWc, do you have aeration stones in the water? If you can find a fine mesh screen to fit on the water inlet then should get better. |

So what you mean that this is only dirt and not rot bacteria! right? I added a filter yesterday night. Yes, I have good aeration air stone. |
