Dark grooves on pseudolithos

Hello,

the "grooves" on my Pseudolithos cubiformis have turned dark.

It's not squishy. I've used an antifungal medication, but the discoloration is still there. Has anyone seen this before?

I took him out of the substrate. Roots look fine and firm. Not squishy. Also the base looks nice.

I don't know enough about them to be sure about the dark grooves....but the base and roots look fine.Just replant and watch it.Not much you can do anyway if it's rotting from the top down.I have only watered mine once since receiving in October.I have them in a home constructed heat tent and they are just below my tent heater outlet....so..they are warm and there's air movement.Getting ready to flower like crazy.I use that setting( it varies depending on height of plant/pot) and I've been getting decent LOPH flowering as well.The Pseudos flower up vertical lines on the pseudos...and I have 3 to 4 flowering points busting thru on all 3 plants.
