Hydrogen peroxide (horticultural grade) goes very well with dwc. Ionic grow and bloom with oxy plus for the win.

I used hydroguard to save my plants from a nasty case of rot but also chilled the Res. I'm trying OregonismXL now as its a bit cheaper, yup hydroguard is pricey

I've heard good things about cannazym up to the point were I ordered it. It basically breaks down dead or dying root matter (or anything organic that's bad) and converts it into nutrients for the plant to eat, thus paving way for new roots to grow. So it's a preventative for root rot in a way, because it removes dead root matter so nothing can breed on it.

It's not a cure though, it won't do anything to help with the rot once it's settled in.

Rhizotonic from Canna also aids with root production, heard goods things about it as well.

I like bcuzz root stimulator. General organics bio root is decent. Rapid start and roots excel are pretty popular. Theres a bunch. They all work.

Yeah they probably say to use 2ml per gallon or liter so you use more of their products.
you could probably do 2ml for your res change and top off water at 1ml since they already colonizing in the roots i wonder if they reproduce or just when you add more you get more benies. What was the price you payed for 1qt of hydrogaurd?

I add it every change and never add back. I paid $65 for a gallon that's why I'm looking at other products. But it does work very well. Pretty sure I can get two runs out of a gallon so cost wise not really too bad I guess.

Uc roots works amazing... if you have issues put likr 5-10ml per gallon... youll see new white growth in a day, its 1-2 mil per gallon if not having issues... they say its diluted pool shock (hypocloric(sp?) acid)

hydroguard

Recharge @ 1gal per week. I used it on my last run and its the truth. Cost about 30$ and worth every penny!

Rapid start. 1ml per gallon once a week. 8 years and found no better for the dollar.

 

[Budley Doright]
