Best way to combat pythium and root rot in all hydroponic growing methods.

[Budley Doright]

Anyway I just got some hydro guard and some bennies going to make some h-berg tea this is one way to combat root rot that has had very good success from what I've read just applied hydro guard be about 46 hours before I apply the tea will update once I see some results with pics roots already look OK but rather be proactive then reactive

I gave up on the tea only because for what I was doing the hydroguard seems to be doing a great job on its own,

roots already look OK but rather be proactive then reactive

yep. reactive is too late usually. i prefer sterile res but bennies work equally well.

Soo in 24 hours the root gaurd doubled my root mass and the plant grew at least a in in a day crazy stuff. these clones I got where almost dead and bennies totally brought them back healthy as ever you should deff try a few runs with and with out there is such a difference if I had gone sterile I would have deff lost them they where so bad off they wouldn't have been able yo handle it but the 3 strains are sum of the danks smoke I have had in 20 years holy grail a nice rock solid bud MOB phenotype with super high potency and blue dream haze the real deal had to spend a little cash but I think there gunna do just fine I'll post some pics in a bit

Before pic . After these I added hydroguard as directed the next day added 3 scoops of plant success to a half a cup of water mixed and tossed in res while I waited for tea to brew

 

[Tripp2005]

After 24 hours hydroguard they loved it made the ones without roots outta the net cup start coming out

 

[Tripp2005]

And today so 36 after hydroguard and 24 after plant success

In hydro blue dream x . Mobx1 holy grailx1
In soil 2 diff gsc
Critical kush in back
And seedling of liberty haze
Clones in homemade dome lol seems to stay moist better then my shorter one all soil got a good watering with bennies as well all seem to love it

It's great stuff (hydroguard). Save my grow. Would like to try a few different things as well just to see if there is a cheaper alternative but it's gonna be hard to beat the results IMO.

Hydroguard is cheap @ $27 a jug but there’s often a serious conflict here that you may or may not be aware of… B. amyloliquefaciens hates chilled water 65F-68F passionately, just like people hate cold water, these bennies love and thrive in warm-hot water.

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens are gram positive rods with peritrichous flagella allowing motility. The cells often appear as long chains unlike many other Bacillus species that form as single cells. The optimal temperature for cellular growth is between 30 and 40 degrees Celsius. Similar to other Bacillus species, B. amyloliquefaciens forms endospores allowing survival for a long period of time. Endospores appear centrally in the cells which do not have a swollen appearance.

30 - 40 C = 84 - 104F Clearly they like it warm.

Really!!!! I thought you had left the building. . Hmmm yes the observational evidence is wrong then. And prices differ from country to country FYI, clearly you need to get out more, double that price here and your close. Clearly, yes you like your water warm, get it! Yes you want everyone to buy a DO meter, get it! Yes you want everyone to add supplemental oxygen, get it. Yes you want everyone to increase the atmospheric pressure in the grow room, not sure I get that one! Clearly you have no proof anything you say works, haven't seen a pic of any grow you've done? Oh yes right, scared of getting busted, as you should be, it's happening all the time here due to member content, just look at the threads that reflect that!!! Please fuck off from this thread as you offer no true solutions or examples and you are a douche (see all previous threads you have contributed too, I use contributed too very loosely) and before you again call me a potty mouth let me remind you of a quote of yours "gfy and your Mama too." Now again just fuck off. God there are only a few on here that really grind my gears and make me a not very nice guy and yup you sir are a top contender! See now you've got me all agitated lol.

I'm not worried bout getting in trouble I am all leagel and the thing is is I don't care if they like it 80 my res stays 65-69 and there are working just fine an it also allows me to run my resume at a higher temp if I so choose and help the plants eat and flourish so in my opinion its deff one of the best ways to combat/prevent root rot or brown algee slime that works and doesn't cost as much as the ddo meter could get 20 bottles of this stuff or make ur own for way cheaper deff a must have for any setup

Also I think that's why u brew a tea helps them grow before putting them into ur system the number of bennies is high and a lot will most likely die in then next 3 days but it works and doesn't cost 1000s of dollors

Clearly all doped up again this morning I see, potty mouth running as usual. No changes SOS, tacky, tack, tacky.

Well that's certainly an opinion, bennies are cheap anyway.

Now then fearless, open up and tell my how you really feel.

I would like to think there is also a symbiotic relationship between the plant and the numerous microbes in the tea but have no scientific proof or personal "picture proof" but the plants did well when I brewed the stuff. This is what I will try next run in the fall when back inside

 

[Tripp2005]

Well I proved it works with pics a lot better then what you've been trying to push with no evidence u say it works but haven't proved anything so why are u on here trolling everyone's post seems like u started a thread to troll it to me but whatever floats your boat

 

[Budley Doright]

Yup there ya go.....being a douche again. Just can't help it can ya....

From all the info I've been reading I believe they do they feed each other and help each other thrive and I mean u could run thses a week or to to give a boost or fix prob then go back to a sterile red if that's what anyone prefers this van be used as a quick fix or the whole run right into flowing orob not the last month dunno bout taste or yeald but I'll update this after harvest

 

[Budley Doright]

Taste does not seem to be effected in my grows but I'm growing a strain right now that....nope not the tastiest but not blaming anything but strain and me, picked it a tad earlier than I like on the first run .

Nice ya its really hard to wait your first couple runs but those last few weeks the buds swell and fill up with all that goodness
