The roots are small, I put them in like a week ago and the PH fluctuations didnt start until I added the last 4 plants which were all out of soil.

Flush with water. I think your flex is the hydro mix. Takes me 2 weeks to get new mix under control. So I do believe your safe. I'm gonna guess and say hydroton only. I had major flex at first.

Try 20-30 ml bleach in your Rez, if the H2O2 causes more brown slime. you can over oxygenate the system with the air stones and %30 you can create a perfect environment for Cyanobacteria.

I went to the hydro store and the dude said that i should use DM gold range zone. So I bought it and added it too my rez for now to see if it helps control it but later I plan on scrubbing out each bucket, scrubbing the rez, and scrubbing the control bucket. Not sure how I can clean out the lines but I think what I am gonna do is use a bleach solution and just soak them in it hopefully killing any of the bacteria. I think what caused this all to happen is me not getting all the soil off of the roots of the 4 plants I transplanted into the system. Super busy day so I will get back on later once I figure out my schedule. Hopefully doing a scrub down and then using the Zone with a rez change will do the trick.

I really don't think it is because of rez conditions either because my temp is never above 68 and i have 2 airstones.

just keep listening to those hydrostore boys and i am sure it will be fine. If you get lucky before they break ya. put 4-5 drops of good bleach in your controll pot and watch what happens..

bacteria need O2 to survive. air stones and H2O2 make it thrive.

Correct me if I'm wrong HR. But I think tea will take some time to get it under control. And if it's set in good your best hope would to control it. Maybe with the other stuff you have tried you might have a better chance. On your next grow run tea from the start.
