I have just been rather busy so was going to just do one big update once I have some conclusive thoughts to share.
Also have been conducting tests on non cannabis plants..
I do have some pictures up on another site if you wanna check them out, but I will be posting everything over here as well.
talking about reactions between the products, same user name
CLICK HEREthat is a very good thread, different product though.. I really enjoy homebrews test and am doing my best to conduct thoughtfull tests as well.
Great White in straight RDWC has really mixed results, lots of people have experienced getting slimed after introducing the product, sorta like Igrowslime, aka Hygrozyme. Which has fairly mixed results in RDWC/DWC situations.

Im just going to throw this out there.
I thought roots excelurator was going to be the sickest shit ever, Im sorry.. I don't think so. It kicks ass and takes names at one small section of the grow after which time I found the growth rate to be almost exactly the same using various sterilizing products*(this is in a rdwc/dwc enviroment}*.
So when did roots excelurator kick ass you may be wondering?
well right after roots start forming I added to my aero cloner roots blew up when using it cloner next to it much slower growth, also transplant to the hydro clay.
I don't use a chiller so Im going to stear people away from benefical microbes in their main rdwc system unless you are using a chiller, first because water temps without a chiller are generally higher, if you have benefical bacteria it will also use oxygen from the water, thats no bueno are roots need the oxygen.
Secondly, its just a personal pref, but I don't like how it stains my roots, I like bright white roots which tells me things are going good, I personally stay away from products like GH Micro, and use canna aqua. which performs amazing in rdwc systems.
So I still have a lot of info to put up... but just wanted to throw this up for you guys ..

I got some Roots Excelurator from a local grow store. I used in on some cuttings that I had to let sit in water as I had a minor emergency during a cold spell. Spent 2 weeks fixing broken water pipes that never froze & broke before & had to replace the brake master cylinder, & fix a clutch cable & a broken ignition key switch on my little, older truck.
Any way, the RE caused roots to form on most of the cuttings. These cuttings should have been in water that was constantly charged with air, but they weren't. They were in small cups. I did change the water a few times & added RE each time, but the water was not changed often enough. Used what I drained from the cuts on other plants.
By the time I was able to get back to the cuts I was happy to find that they had formed roots. Never had that happen in plain water before. My water comes from a well so it's not chlorinated.
Next clones I do I will have them in a RE water solution that will be charged with air from an aquarium pump connected to air stones. I should get roots much faster on my future cuts.
My bottle of RE says to use it in veg & 1st 3 weeks of bloom. I got it for making/assisting clones to root. If clones rooted in RE water without the extra air, I have a feeling my clones will go wild with the extra air.
When I do my next clones in the next few weeks I'll try to remember to get back with results.
