Current Culture and AN line issues due to high Oxygen level

Hey now Kratosxxl
I`m having Root Rot problems with temps 18C - 20C. Currently looking into the same problem you have. Should I go sterile or benefical bacteria? I have hydrozyme in my res, it helps a bit but still present. I think it makes it worst since the foam dissipated and now there foam on some on the roots. Don`t know if it`s good or bad.. I`m down to Great White,
photosynthesis plus,
or going H2o2 all the way. I wonder how this will work because Like yourself I have the whole AN line up which i spent a lot of money. »Voodoo juice only give me problem Sensizyme doesn`t do anything for me, hence hydrozyme. I`m not going RO, Chiller. If I go sterile would I lose function of like Big bud, Ryno skin, bud factor x, overdrive and all the other good stuff?

I`m really getting discourage and should of gone coco with drip instead. I was going for DWC for the most vigurous growth and yeilds but it`s more of a problem when there is too many options. All I want is a sure shot.
Well having chiller is just a good idea , friend of mine had amazing grow with no chiller but used Southern AG, 0 root rot. As far as i know going sterile wont hurt with any of nutes u mentioned but their support recommended to use Jungle juice which is replica of GH Flora 3 part. They(AH nute support) also said that to use UC Roots or Athena Cleanse instead of H202(this is the most confusing part cuz those are not the same), i personally will do GH series lineup.AH might be the best im not sure but if u do full Grand master line in 100 Gall system u looking at 2800 $ just for nutes unless u can pull 3lb per light i dont think its worth it. Their ph perfect Sensi has lot of beneficial bacteria so its not recommended to do in Hydro. Also u cant use any type of sugar in hydro.So in my understanding in high oxygenated system good bacteria will quadruple really fast and if they dont have anything to eat they will die and cause bad bacteria bloom.

Just talk to a hydro guy from a store he suggested me UC roots. I was also looking at flying skull z7 or z9. I hope this solve my problem. I’m will change nutrients once I’ve depleted them and switch brands then.

UC roots works well, thankfully they like halved the price from before because everyone just went through the pain in the ass of mixing pool cleaner.

Ya what was it people were doing with the pool cleaner? Wasn't it like "Pool Shock" diluted down in water or something ?

many years ago i started out with DutchMaster Zone (chlorine and copper). it worked great too. but then they got bought out by Fuji and I dont' think they make it anymore.
you can't beat the cost of HTH shock. a 1 pound bag would last about a decade for most people.

Not sure, but can verify 8 & 13gal ez stores use same lid
Yes that much I’m clear on however I like the cc lids a bit better ( which also fit 8 & 13 gallon buckets). This will be my first attempt at any type of grow... actually I feel like I’m over researching and examining. I should really just get going and start. Best way to learn is by doing.

You're in a Current Culture system?

Hell no... those things are way to expensive... Im just looking to use the ez stor 13 gallon buckets with the cc lids ( if they fit ).
I am designing something similar to their system though. 4 site, one res. Haven’t decided wether or not I’m going waterfall or just air stone yet

You gotta use waterfalls. Fuck air pumps/stones/line.
