Cool. Not sure I want to try it out just yet, wanna get a feel for growing first, but I will definitely want to try this vs nothing vs other microbes in the future.

Careful with this stuff: i'm just finishing my first run with it and having not dialed back my P i'm getting mad foxtails on several of my tops.

You can definitely run much less PK if you use this during peak bloom.
Yeah, makes sense, seeing as how the enzymes are designed specifically to free up P, or so they claim. Does anyone have a side by side of this vs, say, great white?

Sorry for the late reply but no hydroguard wipes everything out as far as beneficials and also antagonistic bacteria. So if you are struggling with a problem such as root rot or some kind of bad bacteria in your water/soil/roots then use it because it will kill everything bacteria wise then you can reinnoculate with the mammoth p and whatever other Bennie you may be using

I wish I had known that. I just went through a full grow using Hydroguard. I had a lot of trichs, more than other grows.

I'm running it alongside Recharge and Hydroguard, but currently at week 5 of first run so I have nothing significant to comment on at this stage.

I'm running it in my twice weekly tea, top fed, as opposed to adding to the res.

Some bennies seem to react poorly when added to the end of my Recharge brew - Roots Excelurator springs to mind - and the brew almost seems to die off / stops foaming. I do not see this same reaction when adding Mammoth at the same point.
Are you bubbling a brew with recharge ? How does it work?

I mean at that point you might have been just running kind of a sterile zone so the plants did well still but the bacteria from the mammoth p just broke down to phosphorus because of the hydroguard which was then available to the roots increasing the uptake

It wipes out the other bacteria though. Someone else mentioned that to me a while ago. When the bacteria eat, a chemical reaction happens and they shit certain nutes dependent on what type of bacteria.
