The use of Clearex in DWC?

Hey everyone hows it growin? I am currently running a DWC setup with an 18 gal tote and I had some questions on the Botanicare Clearex. I was wondering if I should mix it in the reservoir along with the GH Flora series? I am running my reservoir water on aggressive growth with the nutes in the 3-2-1 ratio.

Clearex is not meant to be ran with nutes if I remember correctly. Its primary function is a flushing solution for soil,hydro applications.

Its good for flushing overfed plants and your final pre-harvest flush. You can flush your system occasionally throughout your grow to purge toxins but it should definitely not be added to the nutrient mix. I usually flush out my reservoir and give it 3 days on straight water before I drain, refill and add the flushing agent.

Ok yeah I thought i herd someone say that,but I thought wrong I usually flush by taking the top off with the plants, n pouring the clearex solution over the top of the medium, then letting it run down the rootsthe give it a final flush of plain water then into the freshly nuted reservoir they go.
