Hi,

Just thought we would share some of are wonderful results of Hygrozyme! We have been growing pumpkins for over 17 years and we are always trying new chemicals mixing and matching.

I read about your product in a few magazines a year ago and decided to try it. So I put our pumpkin seeds in the ground on June 24 2006 in a side to side comparasion 1 with miracle grow, 1 with hygrozyme.

Hygrozyme (I use this throughout the grow. It's a relatively new additive on the market. It's used to enhance the root system. It's expensive but well worth it in my opinion.)

Hygrozyme is a good investment, you don't have to get the big bottle,
a little goes a long way.

I reccomend Hygrozyme, pricy but very good stuff.

The plants are looking great! One week into 12/12. All roots are looking good. Hygrozyme is liquid gold!!

I'm with you on the hygrozyme, great, great stuff. It's worth the price IMO 100%.

I agree with ya on the Hygrozyme- that stuff is amazing, but is kinda expensive..Them bottles are kinda small for 40 bucks. And wit that stuff- the more you use the better and faster the growth ;) I usually use a whole capful per gallon- and them caps are bIG...I cant wait to see them flower out.

hygrozyme is spendy but I wouldn't grow without it.

 Hygrozyme is an incredible product and Omri Listed. It really does have dramatic impact on a garden. I have been using it for 5 cycles after hearing rave reviews from a friend and from a grow store operater. Most new products dont live up to the hype but Hygrozyme definetly does and it is used in all stages, and yes it may cost alot but it pays off in the finished product.

 but if you are not organic or have root rot problems already... go with the sm-90 + hygrozyme pair... knockout combo i tell ya. if only hygrozyme was say, 50% cheaper? but gotta do what gotta do :P

 Thanks for the reply Indyk. (I just now got your name. I feel older every day. ) I already have the hygrozyme. I bought it for my cloner. It's even more expensive that the sensizyme! I might end up just mail ordering it.

 I use HZ at half the bottle recommendation's(with no discernable diff to full strength..so save some cash!) for all stages of growth bar last 2-3 weeks. I usually add nutes first,other add's (if using),HZ,Oxyplus and then PHdown if at all. Hope that's a help! JBo

 Hygrozym has a far better application rate making it more affordable and practical to use.

 I second that. I started using Hygrozyme after seeing the results of growers on Breedbay. It's expensive as hell, but it's importance in the development of rediculously insane roots is undeniable.

 That Hydroplex is a fantastic product IMO. The only other thing I would recommend is using a little hygrozyme. That stuff is expensive, but man, so worth it.

 I have used hygrozyme in soil and clone machines with nothing, but good results. Another excellent Canadian grow product. Hygrozyme is a bit pricey though....but who gives a shit!

i keep some Hygrozyme around to prevent root rot from low dissolved oxygen in hydroponics when it is really too warm in the summer.

 i highly suggest hygrozyme if you can afford it. helping keep great vibrant roots in borderline temps

 I agree. GH is great. Try some stuff called hygrozyme, its expensive but well worth every penny. Go a little lighter than the bottle says, just to be safe. Do some research on feeding. With hydro if you are doing flood and drain then there are many different times and durations to feed. 4-5 times per cycle with a 20 minute flood works well if you have a medium such as hydroton or silica rocks. But with something that hold more water like rockwool you want to water less because it hold much more water. This is the very tip of the iceberg, you should do some extensive reading to see whats best for you. GL

 WELL I USE HYGROZYM SO THAT SAIS IT ALL I JUST LOVE THE NAME

 I think we've come a long way with Hygrozyme and it's just about the best hydroponics 'cleansing' product out there, but Drip Clean has the nutritional value we're looking for, so Hygrozyme is typically a catylist, used at around ~8 ml./per gal.

 ive ran my aero cloner for 3 months straight @ 75-85 degrees with hygrozyme. cant run without root rot for more than 2 weeks without it, or with any other enzyme on the market, following the label instructions.If you add hygrozyme to a bucket of shit it wont make gold. If you follow the directions on the bottle from day one with a clean res you will have the results you are seeking.

 Simply an excellent product.Prevents root rot.My water temps are in the low 80's(getting a chiller soon) and not a sign of anything nasty in the water.Will also make your roots explode.VERY big thumbs up from me.Be warned though.Roots EXPLODE.

 i use GH3 rockwool,e&f, and my res stays pretty stable for the first 3-4 days and then climbs maybe .2 a day at the most.ialso add hygrozyme and H2O2...dont know if that helps.i would guess somethin to do with hydroton just cause other factors seem close.good luck oh...i use 24hr tap water

I used Hygrozyme for the 1st time last evening. I was told that it be beneficial to transplanting of my plants (4 wks in veg), would help my plants increase the speed and uptake of their nutes. as well as other things. I can tell you it was amazing. I was having a big time "N" issue (Chlorotic low to mid leaf yellowing, heading upward at an alarming rate of speed, tops light green). B4 I repotted I dampened the new pH adjusted media, with 30% of the label make-up, fish fertilizer (de-odorized  ) and Hygrozyme (full make-up as per label) until good and damp (not mud  ) ***Note - Hygrozyme & Fish nutes were pH also adjusted.I repotted and then placed them outside the direct light in my grow area. I made up 1 liter of a 20% Hygrozyme and 10% fish fertilizer make-up (as per labels) and pH adjusted. I foliar sprayed the entire plants very thoroughly and let sit. Made up 2 gals of water and Hygrozyme per label, adjusted pH, and fed pots as directed.After 20 mins, I checked on them. I thought at first "hmm, are these girls actually turning green already? Nah, must be the light." An hr. later I checked 'em again, and I thought " Holy s**t, these girls are green as h***!" The "N" had passed all the way up to the tops in an hour!.Then this morning I checked them. There is absolutely no sign of a transplant or an "N" deficiency at all! Plants are straight up, leaves straight out, and all but the very bottom sets of leaves are lush green and happy  Any of the bottom leaf sets that didn't become necrotic (a minimal few and very bottom only) are showing as light green. I'm leaving this post 'cause I didn't find much in the way of posts when I searched "Hygrozyme". It's expensive enough to scare someone off if they're not sure it will help. Granted, this is my 1st experience with it. but I'll tell you what. I'm now a convinced user. It will now be a common part of my plant maintenance. Maybe someone else will leave a reply that says it didn't work for them. Lets see.


Another top secret formulae, this time from the enzyme specialists from Canada, Sipco Industries Ltd. This is 100% organic (OMRI listed) and is also bacteria free making it perfect for hydroponics. It contains many active enzymes with unlimited shelf life and has been laboratory and field tested with proven results. With 30 years experience specialising in producing enzymes, were not surprised this solution from Sipco’s plant sciences division is very impressive. Seriously increases root mass, nutrient uptake and plant growth. As the enzymes are not associated with bacteria, H2O2 can be used in low ppm with this product. Will work well with any feed, nutrient package. Good for soil, hydro or soil.

here's 32 days from seed. I changed the rez last night to early bloom phase nutes. I had a sharp rise in pH while I was away for the day today. It went from 5.8 to 6.6. in 13 hours. I'll know for next time. I have a feeling that the Silica Blast may help stabilize the pH early on like that. I think the Hygrozyme may have something to do with the quick rise in pH, although not a bad thing if you look after things. I can tell with each nute change that the new dose of Hygrozyme goes to work on the root system immediatly. You can see what the enzymes do to the roots by looking closely at the resevoir. It's almost like it causes the roots to "shed their skin" and rinse away old root matter into the resevoir. Supposedly the exfoliated root matter turns to sugar or is utilized somehow by the plants or so it says. It does make your new resevoir look not so new though. That's my observation anyway.

Hygrozyme is part of a healthy nutreint regime that should eliminate the problem or need for sm-90

I guess you could use it up until mid flower or until flushing is about to start. I will get readin and experimenting with it and we shall see all the variations for success we can come up with.

Hygrozyme is an enzyme that breaks down proteins. This helps the nutrients to eat up the nutrients faster. It also prevent Pythium and algae from forming.

We think a better choice is to continue using organic material, but also using an enzymatic addtive like Hygrozyme that will break down the unwanted organic matter in the reservoir .

Hygrozyme is by far one of my favorite supplements, expensive, but great.

 i use "tarantula" from advanced nutrients (beneficial bacteria of 57 microorganisms with 1.4 billion....highest concentration ..... . i also use "grozyme", from hygrozyme, (superior enzymes., or so i'm told).

 I'm a huge fan of Hygrozyme... it is an enzyme formula that breaks down dead proteins in the root zone which in turn makes nutrients available to the plant... I use it in my Waterfarm set up throughout the entire cycle and I wouldn't grow without it....

thought I'ld throw this out for debate, or possible good news for some.A short time ago I cut my first clones.  BUT... I decided to use the product Hygrozyme to spray the clones and soak their soil. I took my cuts, which were "very" small nodes from the very bottom (maybe 2 inches long). I used an inexpensive Miracle Gro rooting hormone. The point...umm yes. Well My clones never skipped a beat. They never wilted. They never lost any color what-so-ever. They simply looked as if they were up from seed, very strong, and real happy about it. Even the long fingered Sativa clones are pointing straight out.Now mind-you, one of the Mothers is an incredibly strong plant, but the other has had a very tough life. I've seen many photo's of clones here that show cuts going through somewhat of an initial shock...and subsequent recovery.I'm not positive (as a cloning newbie), if my experience is the norm. But at this point. I've become "More" impressed with this product. I'm quite a cynic, and really don't go in for the "magic wand" products. But when I add this to what I experienced through my last veg grow. I more and more want to let people know about this stuff.I'm a cheap S.O.B. At least to the extent that I had better get a bang for my buck or I'm gonna be really proud about it. This stuff isn't cheap, but I'm ready to buy the gallon container when I'm out. I'm really looking foward to the results of my next seed grow. Where-as I can use it right from the begining on.I know I've posted on this product before, I'm not trying to hock the stuff. I just want to get my personal experience out there, and hear from others. I'm tilting on becoming totally convinced. Some other opinions might help me over the edge, or bring me back to the cynical side.

never used Rhizotonic but for my current batch of cuts I'm using hygrozyme. workin like a champ in the cloner and everything else it goes into.

Hygrozyme kicks ass. Better be down for rapid transplanting, roots literally just wanna' bust through the pots. Super Super good shit.

Hygrozyme is a tad expensive but it totally rocks. I love what it does for my roots in soil. I also use it when I transplant. 1/4 teaspoon Superthrive and 8ml Hygrozyme per gallon of RO water. My transplants never stress since I began using this mix. It like they never skip a beat.
