Growers know the despair when a crop has a root disease or a virus infection. Some growers will use a chemical to try to control it, but this approach is often not effective. It may even worsen the situation. As with everything, prevention is better than cure. Prevention starts with understanding what causes root or virus diseases * and what steps can be implemented to avert difficulties in advance.

A few customers have been struggling with some sort of root rot problem. These are experienced growers who have had many many crops and are baffled by this new variable.
The problem is characterized by the roots doing great until the second week of bloom, and then around that point they turn brown and start disintegrating. They smell musty, like a dirty aquarium. A few of the less hardy plants wilt. Others begin yellowing. While the harvest is not entirely ruined, it is not close to what had been expected or hoped for. |

We can gurantee this is going to be 'THE NEXT BIG THING!' Already a massive success in Canada, Hygrozyme is a totally unique product. It can reduce rooting times by two days, with a much higher strike rate. All plants grow more vigorously than ever before, thanks to its powerful effect against root disease - use throughout grow and bloom for the full effect. Can be used with Oxy Plus (hydrogen peroxide). |

Every top up to res. I'm of the school that manufacturer directions are for selling products and have never come close to recomended label dosages. Hygrozyme & hydroguard are the only exceptions. I started using hygrozyme (due to it's scary price tag) at 1-2ml/gal. This time I bumped it up to 10-15ml/gal. Don't know about plant explosion but roots are off the hook. I've got almost too much root for my bubbler, might have to find a bigger bucket! Easily 25% more root than normal. They say, big roots = big harvest! |
