I am not sure about the process or sequence of adding certain elements to my hydro buckets.
I am using canna aqua nutes at half strength and adding ryzotonic and cannazym when I mix up the nutes, and also adding a little calmag.
But what if I want to add some Pond-zyme to protect or treat a bucket for dark roots? Does that get put into the regular nute mix of added in another way?
If I want to clean the roots in h202, do I add it to the buckets or dip them into another bucket for a short time?
Can you use h202 as a preventative treatment?
I am also not sure what amounts to mix for these things.
Thanks for any advice.
 
Alright Joe:smokebuds:1st if using tap water ,let it stand or bubble for 24hrs to de-chlorinate,...then you would go with the hottest nutes 1st like cal mag ...start @ 5ml on week 3 & up by 2ml every week

silica ... start @5ml on week 3 & up by 1ml per week through veg ..... let these dilute / mix well before adding anything else.....

then bloom boosters / PK ect ...start in week 2 of bloom ,just flores in the 1st week

then your rhizo ...full for week 1 ...half week 2 .... quarter week 3 & 4 ...then you can drop it or keep quarter
zym ...run @ half to full what the bottle states through whole grow.

other additives before adding the base (aqua vegga/flores ect) last to the desired PPM/ EC ...finally PH adjust after letting everything mix for a few hours.

Any myco / bennie tea type stuff can be added to that any time I think ,if thats what you mean by pond-zym ? :coffee2:

If you think you have a root issue & want to use h202 ?...I think you use it separately ,like a bath for the roots in another bucket & to clean the buckets & equipment ...them rinse well before making a fresh res in cleaned / rinsed buckets & replacing the plant ... I think some people may run tiny amounts of h202 with there nutes as a preventative as well but do some research on that before using any as it can be very harmful if used wrong :cool:good luck

edit ...h202 will kill any enzymes in the res so doesn't get used in a res that is using any zym ... pretty sure its a one or the other type thing :peace:
