Hey everyone,
This thread has gotten me through some harsh times, in regards to the dreaded rot.
I have been using the original formula for a few years now, playing around with different products, as I go.
Recently, the past 6 months, or so, I was turned onto a great product that is an all in one sort of a thing.
It is awesome, it's called 'recharge' and I've used it in my dwc modular budgets, a couple of different ways.
You can brew it up, with a hand full of ewc, for 24-48hrs and treat it just like the original tea, recharge has molasses in it already, so you just use 1/2tsp per gl recharge plus a hand full of ewc, brew it and use it every 72hrs.
You can also skip the brewing part since this recharge powder becomes active, as soon as it hits water and is mixed up. Again, it's just 1/2tsp per gallon of chlorine free water and put a cup in each bucket or reservoir, every 72 hrs. When doing it this way, I noticed some drastic ph drops, which tells me the root rot could be winning the battle but as long as I stuck to the regiment and adjusted the ph every day, all was well. This cut down on needing to brew anything but the ph was unstable, compared to brewing it. Pros and cons.
You could also top dress with it. I tried this when I didn't feel like brewing or mixing anything and I had no ill side effects. I can't speak for long term effects because I wasn't consistent with it, sometimes I'd top dress some times I'd mix but either way it works and it works really well.
It also made my plants look healthier and more vigorous. The leaves looked more tough, the pm that I've been fighting with is still present but I don't need to keep on top of it, as much and the recharge doubles as a foliage spray too, to fight pm and give it a boost from the kelp.
Realgrowers.Com is where you can find it. I highly recommend checking it out.
Stay stoned
