Hi, my name is Kerron and I'm from Trinidad and Tobago. I've recently started an aquaponics system and all was going great until yesterday. My lettuce started wilting and the roots actually feel off of a couple of the plants when i tried to pick them up. The are usually in water all the time, would that be the problem?
