I haven't. Got a link by chance?Have you looked into the o2grow units?
Why are you guys not blending your own "Tupur" mix rather than making these Humbolt Hipsters and FedEx rich? lolI think I need to buy some stock in tupur lol
I'm sure I'll get to it, but I just started using it so getting the premix was easier. My local store carries it, I grabbed it on sale.Why are you guys not blending your own "Tupur" mix rather than making these Humbolt Hipsters and FedEx rich? lol

Sweet! Still, waterfalls are an excellent aerator plus they mix and recirculate the water. They also break up surface films, something airstones aren't very good at.
I utilize waterfall as well just haven't gotten far enough along to do more about playing with DO levels in rdwc. On the tupur front though autopots subfertigate so I'm gonna give air injection tech a whirl.Sweet! Still, waterfalls are an excellent aerator plus they mix and recirculate the water.

In this way, I only need one pump to do all water management functions in the system.
The electrolysis spooks me as to what it may do to the nutes.Sweet! Still, waterfalls are an excellent aerator plus they mix and recirculate the water. They also break up surface films, something airstones aren't very good at.

I'm sub irrigating my Tupur, and the waterfalls are working great. Not trying to argue, there's lots of ways to skin this cat.I utilize waterfall as well just haven't gotten far enough along to do more about playing with DO levels in rdwc.

Huh?The electrolysis spooks me as to what it may do to the nutes.
What effects does that device have on the suspension of your nutes in solution?
@chazbolin had posted some info on DO a while back. Maybe we can dig it upI utilize waterfall as well just haven't gotten far enough along to do more about playing with DO levels in rdwc. On the tupur front though autopots subfertigate so I'm gonna give air injection tech a whirl.
IIRC, the upshot was that it's not hard to get very close to 100% O2 saturation. Many methods get you there. Water temperatures are a determining factor in total DO levels; fix that first when suspicious of oxygenation problems.@chazbolin had posted some info on DO a while back. Maybe we can dig it up
Pretty big gamble. Maybe test it with a sungold cherry tomatoes so there's less pucker if it goes south.What effects does that device have on the suspension of your nutes in solution?
Yeah, it fails my KISS test. The waterfalls do several jobs in addition to aeration and they do them all well.Pretty big gamble. Maybe test it with a sungold cherry tomatoes so there's less pucker if it goes south.
Highest dissolved oxi that wayNo sir, I'm using waterfalls for aeration and circulation.
It's splitting WATER into oxygen and hydrogen, using electrolysis. If there's water, there's oxygen in it. This is not the same thing as oxygenated water, which is where the little unit comes in. It uses electricity to split the water molecule, freeing oxygen to then oxygenate the liquid water. The difference is that in the water molecule the oxygen is chemically bound to the hydrogen, whereas dissolved oxygen in solution refers to a different process. It's this second process that governs roots and fish getting oxygen from the water.What is very interesting is that if it is splitting the oxygen and hydrogen molecules, would the oxygen not have to be there in the first place?
Would also think it is causing evaporation at an accelerated rate but I am no chemist lol
