First time hydro grow. Are these healthy roots. At first the roots were bright white now the upper part of the roots seem to be light brown in color. Overall they seem healthy to me. What do you think? Plant is 1 week into flowering

is that clear tubing you are using for the airstones??? i'd replace that with black

and are you using a rot preventative?
 
Look nute stained. If the water don't smell bad I'd say keep it up and yes get rid of the clear tube!
 
They look fine but to get the best results you need to get some feathering on the roots which doesn't happen if they are submerged. If you're going to do a DWC you're better off designing and building your own system. It's very straightforward. Best to have a reservoir and the roots just hanging in air and being sprayed with jets.

However as per previous posts, it's just nute stain.

it is clear tubing but the outside is wrapped in electrical tape so no light leak. I have an air conditioner in the room just to keep temps around 72. Not ideal so I went ahead and bought a small chiller rated for 15g and should get it within a couple days. Also using Hydroguard for the roots
 
Now I’m having a different issue. This bushy girl won’t stop stretching. Slow to mature. I flipped lights 26 days ago and pistils maybe started showing 5-7 days ago. Now she won’t stop stretching. Added nearly 2 inches last night. Should I continue training?
