DWC root rot problems so transferred to soil.

I have two, month old dwc plants that I have transferred to soil today. This is because of an persistent slime issue and stunted growth. Before I put them in soil I tried to clean the roots of the slime and my questions are should they survive this harsh treatment? Will any remaining root rot continue to affect the plants? and should I treat the soil with an anti root rot agent when they have recovered a bit?

people do transfer from hydro to soil. id have to say depending on the root ball size would play a factor in its success. i never have though. as far as your root rot problem this thread is the go to for root issues. lots of good q and a's too.

Thanks for reply, I have checked out Heisenberg's tea recipe however most of the products are US. I did make an effort to eliminate the rot with better water, increased oxygen and h202. Do you think I will have ongoing issues with root rot in soil particularly these two that had it persistently?

Did you cut all the questionable roots off?
did you let the roots soak in any h2o2 solution, or any other root cleaning solution?
if you didn't you might still have a problem depending on the moisture and tempature in the soil.

They were washed in h202 solution , dead roots taken off and then rinsed thoroughly. I am hoping the microbes in the soil will kill the rot remaining? They have had a tough time, I thought the heat would be my biggest concern however it was fungus gnats and root rot!

Cool. I think your good to go.
Good luck with your baby.

I know one thing, they have a better chance of stsying healthy now. It might shock the shit outta them for a bit but i think that theyll pull through

They look ok at the moment. Thanks for the comments and advice guys.

This is one after a couple of days. It's starting to grow again
