does it say what % of calcium hypo? i'm not sure if active chlorine is the same thing as % cal hypo. and too much chlorine will kill them quick
sorry, i don't do math. lol.So 0.01 grams per gallon at 60% chlorine, mines 32% chlorine, so 0.02 g per gallon, how would I figure out liters? There's 4.56 liters to a gallon. I have to divide something right? Haha shit
Yeah real quick, that's why I don't use it. I put to much (didn't know it used a ratio from here) and the roots would not touch the water and ended up losing the plantdoes it say what % of calcium hypo? i'm not sure if active chlorine is the same thing as % cal hypo. and too much chlorine will kill them quick
they been getting it for 2 weeks and they not dead, so it must be OK. Yes smells like a pool a bit when I put it in.Yeah real quick, that's why I don't use it. I put to much (didn't know it used a ratio from here) and the roots would not touch the water and ended up losing the plant
Yeah right i don't get it. I'm in UK so no pool shock and any hot tub cleaner pool cleaner had other ingredients so I found this just calcium hypochlorite, but yeah that range hey, weird.that is weird they give you such a range too. like on pool shock, it gives an exact % of cal hypo, not a range.
Wow that's nice, how long did that take to grow those? Is that a product or just 98.85 Bacillus amyloliquefaciens? Do you have to keep the temps down using that as well? How much how often?I know some have great results using chlorine and running sterile but I've had better luck with GFF (98.85% Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) in DWC.
4 days of root growth

I've had good runs with gff and without but not sterileI know some have great results using chlorine and running sterile but I've had better luck with GFF (98.85% Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) in DWC.

Oh didn't see the 4 days. Nice. Good stuff then huh.I know some have great results using chlorine and running sterile but I've had better luck with GFF (98.85% Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) in DWC.

Yeah it's garden friendly fungicide from souther agricultural you can get away with a little higher temps with itWow that's nice, how long did that take to grow those?

It's my first time I just read too much about people having problems in the reservoir so I was just like no sterile.I've had good runs with gff and without but not sterile
Same hereI've had good runs with gff and without but not sterile
Ah gff got it. So the 98.85 %Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is from a certain company, southern agriculture?Yeah it's garden friendly fungicide from souther agricultural you can get away with a little higher temps with it
Wow that's very different results sample size of 1 or not. Good stuff I think I'll try that. Is it available anywhere as just the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens or does it need to come from that company as a product ?Same here
The pictures I posted above were after a bout with pythium. I chopped all the roots with a pair of scissors from both plants.
One plant got ~4ppm free chlorine, the other a heavy dose of GFF
The GFF plant recovered much more quickly
A sample size of one isn't very meaningful, but it was clear that bennies worked better in my circumstance
Southern Ag is the companyAh gff got it. So the 98.85 %Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is from a certain company, southern agriculture?
It's like hydroguard but like a million times more colonies for way cheaperAh gff got it. So the 98.85 %Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is from a certain company, southern agriculture?
Nice it's on amazon uk. So everything else is the same-ish? , temps all that, just use this product instead of a sterile res and it most likely will be a better result? Does this stuff do the same as a sterile res but in a different way? Fight any pathogens that would cause problems?Southern Ag is the company
GFF is the product
GH Defguard is essentially the same product as well
It's the opposite approach to using chlorineNice it's on amazon uk.
