Sub-Primeform, I'll spare you the schooling I'm tempted to unleash on you.....as I'm officially a reformed lash master.
Anyway......Pretty clueless of you to assume the previous posts are based off of senseless regurgitation. You must post more than you read here on the Farm.
Good news though, you're more than welcome to be clueless bro, this is an open forum after all.
I realize Current Culture has no experience in RDWC either, but they too generally recommend avoiding zymes. Apparently they've gotten repeated reports of bio-slime, red/ brown algae, reduced DO levels (from biofilms on air stones) and pH fluctuations for a high percentage of UC growers using zymes.
Though they probably just read that in a post on some random thread I'd imagine ;)
I said it seemed like regurgitation because every post saying that hygrozyme is bad had 0 information to back its claim including yours. Why not simply say that there have been reports of bio slime and red/brown algae from using zymes. This is a TOTALLY different subject then treating root rot, and does belong in the conversation since it is a unique problem to DWC. Im actually very glad you brought this up because it proves why beneficial bacteria like great white DO belong in RDWC. If your having a problem with algae, using hygrozyme is not recomended because it can feed it just like the bad bacteria. Its important to understand that hygrozyme doesnt CAUSE the algae it simply feeds it. If running a sterile environment like DM zone doesnt fix the algae problem then the only solution is beneficial bacteria. In this case where you have an algae problem I would not recommend using hygrozyme at all until there are no more signs of the algae. But once again your problem isnt hygrozyme, its not having a sterile or beneficially colonized grow environment.
