I wouldnt put Biobizz anywhere near an Aerogarden man, or any Hydroponics, its so thick and sticky you'll have ALOT of trouble cleaning the crap from your res,sprayers, etc. Active organic hydroponics is a bit of a myth tbh, in hydroponics the only things the plants are supposed to get is light, CO2, Oxygen, Nutes and Water in a sterile enviroment. Using organics is encouraging the build up of pathogenic and non pathogenic bacteria in your res...plus if your gonna be dumping it every week I dont see how you could get the beneficials to grow and not the bad kind.
If I was doing hydro (which I will be not next grow the one after) Id use chemical nutes and ALOT of H2O2, Id want my res sterile as fuck and the res to only have what I put into it in it. I use the Biobizz range in soil and its decent, wouldnt go hydro on it tho man.
EDIT: Just for the record, everyone on this thread is aware that when the Organic compounds in Organic ferts are broken down...they are actually the same chemicals that are in the chemical fertilisers? Just the chemical fertilisers are available to the plant to be used straight away instead of the rootzone depending on microorganisms to break it down. Just an fyi for anyone who didnt know. I only use organics cos it sounds fancy and its much harder to burn a plant using it.
I think youre on the money with all of that Harrekin +rep, peroxide is the way to go, lash it in there, forget enzymes and all that, the peroxide will knacker them anyway, but it takes care of all the nasties that might want to move into your roots, adds oxygen to them, and breaks down into water. Why would you want any more, it just gives the plants the perfect root environment. Biobizz, molasses, its all bullshit in hydro, itll just fuck up your pump, cause slime, youll end up with wild pH swings.
Anyway, theres nothing organic about indoor growing, even if it is in soil. You think IOFGA would rubberstamp tomatoes grown in soil in a flat in Ballybrack?
There is one "bio" type product Id like to know about for sure though, we always used it back int he day in London, and jsut assumed it was making a difference. Canna Boost, anyone done with and without and can say for sure whether its worth the mad money it costs?
Harrekin, dead right about how easy it is to burn your plants in hydro. The only way around that is to use way less than what Canna say on the tin, and build up to an optimum when you see the plants looking for nutes. Start with 1/8 strength with seedlings, and then 1/4 for small ones with decent roots. You get to know what they need and what they can take fairly quickly if your patient. The biggest new growers problem is overnutes. It sets them back so much. If they survive that is. Too little means they are bit slower, too much and they're dead.
Ak is really good I've been fuckin spacin the whole day not even lyin, gettin periods of insightful genius but the pen and paper may aswell be on mars.
