I see that doubleds used h202 sometimes,
hey chris, should we turn off our air stones when adding the product, and for how long?
I read this here.
How to use Hydro-Fungicide:
We see Hydro-Fungicide as a root therapy for hydroponics. It cleans and conditions the roots of your plants. Now we all know that roots are the foundations of healthy plants and without healthy roots the plants themselves are not healthy. Like a human, if you are healthy your immune system wards off disease, so too healthy plants are able to ward off diseases which makes them last longer and provide better crops.
The feeder roots enable your plants to absorb oxygen, water and of course nutrient at an accelerated rate.
Firstly you should ensure your tank is free of fungi and bacteria in order to do this you should saturate with an added Hydro-Fungicide dose of 2ml per litre of nutrient, It should not take more than a week to 10 days before you see the amazing results.
Depending on how bad your tank is, this may have to be done for more than a week.
Do not use more than the recommended dosage as this may have a traumatic effect on your plants.
Then for preventative maintenance of your tank dose your tank once a week with just 1ml per 2Litres nutrient. If you add water you should also add 1ml per 2litres of water added. Its as simple as that. If you think this is costly, well the additional and healthier crops received as a result, will much more than cover this cost.
Things you should note:
1. Do not use Hydro-Fungicide if you are trying to promote beneficial bacteria
growth.
2. Hydro-Fungicide may cause your solution to foam a little, this will disappear
over time and will cause no harm to your plants
3. All oxygenation methods should be switched off while dosing tanks
4. Always test for plant sensitivity, whilst we have not had any adverse effects, if
you are going to use on a large scale, we feel it is always better to be safe than
sorry.
5. Never use Hydro-fungicide in conjunction with any other treatments
stimulants or preventatives. Hydro-fungicide is a stand alone treatment and if
used in conjunction with other treatments its effects may be neutralized and
the same possibility complies to the other treatments. It may also result in an
adverse effect.
6. Store Hydro-fungicide in a dark cool place.
7. You do not need to stop treatment prior to harvesting Hydro-Fungicide has no
systemic qualities.
8. Keep out of the reach of children. This rule should apply to all products.
and my other question, just in case you missed it:)
Lets say someone wants to use down under HF, and then at a later wants to add a beneficials how long is the HF still active/killing stuff 5, days, 2 weeks.?
Thanks again!!!
