Enzymes & deepflow/bubble hybrid systems


Recommended Posts

Anyone using Mycorrhizal root conditioners & Microbial nutrient additives in systems highly aerated such as bubbleponics/deepflow.... just wondering about the absence of hydrogen peroxide etc & adding organic based enzymes into these systems causes any problems or cuts short the tank life of the zymes etc..... I realise these systems are hard to perfect with organic nutes(but these are not nutes) finding it hard to get unbias info from anyone other than suppliers etc..... Of course I will find out for myself but a heads up warning approach to problems is always good.......

Welcome Stan, I use Cannazym & Hydrogen Peroxide, just not together. If you have control of your water temp and can keep it under 23deg, most of the issues with DWC will be overcome. A fish tank chiller is the only way I now of achieving this, but that is essentially an A/C, more expence. Organic's are usually not recommended for these systems & organic based PH down will give you slime.

Yep... thanx.... . so as far as i can gather highly aerated water such as bubbleponics should not influence zymes or benne bac etc.... I am all cool with temps etc & run @ 20-21 in pots & set res @ 20 so environent is all under control..... am using recirc dwc with res & linked 20ltr pots etc... not sur what my ppm of air is each pot but split 800 litre per hr air pump between 4 20ltr pots ( also fall back in res..).... so called experts have quoted that for these systems you need between 10 & 20 ppm or % of air etc..... WTF... im into my science & all but F me I'm positive that ive never seen & meter for this pmsl..... would i be correct in thinking if I have say 15ltrs in a pot and @ minimum 150 ltrs of air are passing through an hr (via 2 inch air balls).... is equivalent to 1000 % or ppm over an hr then divide by etc etc..... if im on the right path then cool.... im sure u can not really over kill this system but more concerned about killing my enzymes & benne bac .. with wat i am running & hope it is adequate & not too much @ the same time.... is there a calculation for this..? I am pretty switched on but the only info I get back is" that should do it".. or "shit yeah mate" ... " I just want to know why that will do.....? Thanx heaps for the feedback......
