Root products with sterile res

[coopersheldon]

Any products to help root production when running a chiller with a sterile reS?

Hydroguard, it's fantastic

Hydroguard is a beneficial bacteria not a root product. Don't add beneficial bacteria to a res that you are keeping sterile. It won' help anything at that point. I ran Hydroguard and Rapid Start (General Hydroponic root product) and loved my results. I know I am over paying for both products but I can say that they do work well together. I drop the Rapid Start a day before I flower because it's too pricey for a constant nute in RDWC. (for me anyways =P!)

I'm using dutch master zone this go round. Last time I used hydroguard, but wanted to try a sterile solution. You use 5ml per 5 gal and a liter runs $24. Add at time of rez change. So far, I really like the results and I think it's going to be cheaper. I'm also using a chiller and water is at 67.

NONE OF THESE ARE ROOT BOOSTING PRODUCTS. These are all products to treat a res with either sterile shit or beneficial bacteria. I suggested RAPID START. Check out products like that. Root specific.

Not stocked in the UK

Pretty sure any root additive would be organic based. I'm not 100% positive on that...maybe 95%

I thought you meant the Hydroguard isnt in the UK... Not the Rapid Start. I can't help you out then. Just google root boosters and double check to make sure it's not a microbe. Check the bottle on Rapid Start if you can find a decent picture or an ingredient listing. Gives you an idea of what to look for outside of enzymes, fungi, and bacteria which won't be effective in your sterile res.

Just keep the water cold and super clean and you don't need any bullshit root booster products

I have done side by side on many of them. Some work ok, but not worth the money dude.
