Running anything with molasses in it at that temp is asking for trouble, imo.
i assume that 12 cups is way way to much
The cloner becomes a tea Brewer, ans molasses isn't selective on what microbes it feeds. I've had it explained to me that molasses increases the chances of "bad actors" showing up.
I'd say go back to what you know works. But the tea is suggested for Aqua-type systems at 1c/10gal if that helps.[/QUOTE
Lol. The "bad actors" showed up within 24 hours after adding the brew. I did not know that the tea was recommended at that dosage. So I only added 6x too much. Thanks for the tip. I run an aero system, so that advice will come in handy, and save me from brewing way too much tea. Thanks, Savage
@Capulator products from what I have heard are some bad azz micros for various applications. I have seen dozens of folks over the last 4-5 years rave about the products efficacy and have never heard any negative feedback........... FWIW. I dont use personally due to the fact I do my own mix/style. If it aint broke dont fix it is my motto. :)I wondered the same question about the biowar ... Anyone else use the product? What are your experiences?
I have done the brew for 24 hrs, 48hrs but any longer than after that smelled real foul so I decided not to use. I don't know why but sometimes my plants really respond and other times I think it burns them. Always spraying end of day lights off.
I have been running my ezcloner 120 the same way for 4 years. 25 gal RO water, 15ml of Orca, and 150 ml of liquid Clonex. I even run a seedling heat mat under the cloner to get water temps up to 81 degres, as the Orca does a great job of protecting the water from rot. I always get roots by day 6. I usually get 100% rooting. I added 12 cups of OGBiowar Roots and Foliar to the cloner. The next day I noticed that the water smelled foul. By day 2 I could see the rot pattern in my roots and the water was putrid. The roots also browned severely, but I attributed this to the molasses in the brew. This NEVER happens when I run with only Orca and Clonex. So I drained the cloner, added 25 more gal of RO, the Orca and the clonex and everything was immediately cleared up. Is this product not for use in cloners?
