Ancient Forest is Alaskan humus combined with EWC and marketed by Gen Hydroponics/Organics. Without the ZHO you still have an excellent chance at beating the slime. The ZHO simply ensures you have disease fighting trichoderma. Your local shop should have something with trichoderma, ask them.Hey Heisenberg I am so glad I just found this thread. I have the brown slime algae starting to develop on my 2 week old plants in DWC. I am sorry if this question has already been asked, but the ancient forest EWC is that the alaskan humis stuff made by general organics? Also will the tea still do the job if the ZHO is missing. Im not quite sure if the local hydro shop has it in stock. THanks
Meanwhile the tea I was hesitant to use because of the mucus covered air stone is working just fine. In fact I stuck the air stone, mucus and all, into one of my budding buckets and the next day it was clean again. Looks like although the tea was really thick with microorganisms, none of them were harmful, and by the time it's diluted in the res things are fine.
