So I'm battling root rot don't know why cause the water is cold no light leaks just over it. So I want to hear from the sterile growers. What is the best way to maintain a sterile rez? Thanks in advance

Pool shock. .01 grams per gallon.

Get it at Wal-Mart. 1kg lasts years for a small res.

H202 is expensive. Takes a lot to get through a grow.

Bleach works. Just that liquid can make a mess.

Only problem with shock is you want a .01gram scale. Amazon has one for 12$.

I think that is about the correct %. I dont have mine in the original package and it has been a while.

I guess you're sort of right, with UC Roots you pay for 99.9% water and 0.1% hypochlorous acid. With HTH Pool Shock you are paying for Calcium hypochlorite, which when dissolved in water creates a much higher concentration of hypochlorous acid.

End result is 100% the same, just you pay hundreds of times more for it.
