Chances are you would need the H2O2 even with a chiller.Either way I'm not buying a chiller when h202 is as cheap as it is locally.

He's probably talking about the weak sauce.Where did you find it locally?
Sorry, Man, but I'm gonna need you to spell it out for me. I get that you're probably adding 0.2-0.4 g Ca(ClO)₂ / gal, but how often? And you never change your rez through your entire grow?! How many gallons in your system, and how big is your grow space? Thanx for any help.I don't change my reservoir. About 4 PPM is strong and will do the job. I have been able to get away with less.
With pool shock 0.1 grams in 10 gallons = 1 PPM free chlorine.
A little goes a long way. Don't get the super shock, just plain HTH pool shock.
Same here. I'd keep using the stuff for $20/gal.Shit thats a good deal. It's three times that here.
Grand rapids hydroponics on leonard. $18.50/gallonWhere did you find it locally?
I found the same high prices online and was shocked by how cheap it was at gr hydro. I almost questioned if it was legit until I chemical burned my finger tips from a single drop that hit the bottle from the measuring syringe. Index finger and thumb went pure white. Not a good look for me.I buy it online, 5 or 6 (I forgot) gallons as a time and it comes out to $30 a gallon I think. I don't really use it in hydro anymore but it's nice to have around for cleaning and stuff..
I'd appreciate some detail regarding your grow space and protocol for Ca(ClO)3. How much, how often, the volume of your rez, and the area of your grow space? How often do you change your rez?I'm a pool shock guy myself. It's soooo easy, cheap and effective. I paid $10 for a container 6+ years and never even made it through half a bottle before I moved houses and tossed the old stuff.
I get that your adding 50 ml of your stock soln to a 100 l rez every 3 days. Do you change your rez during your grow; if so, when?Greenner: said:I make my on solution with pool shock
1 Gramm for 1 Liter water and then i juse 0.5ml for each 1 Liter in the the reservoir
100liter res. 50ml soulution
Every 72 hours
Are you not worried about it breaking down once wetted?I make my on solution with pool shock
1 Gramm for 1 Liter water and then i juse 0.5ml for each 1 Liter in the the reservoir
and how often do you change your rez?With pool shock 0.01 grams per gallon of H2O provides 1 PPM of free chlorine. 2-4 PPM is enough to do the job 0.015 - 0.020 grams per gallon is a good place to be.
Add a couple times a week and every res change.
Yeah, ok. That explains it. Changing with that kind of frequency would go through nutrients like crazy.In DWC I changed every week to 10 days depending on the growth stage. When they are in that max mode (late stretch thru mid flower) I changed more often.
I had to, my plants were eating it up. But I do grow them big.Changing with that kind of frequency would go through nutrients like crazy.
