Adding bleach 3-5ml/50L on my organic nutes...OK?

Hello....I have added 3-5ml to my 50L tank that has my organic nutes..it killed the algea right away i think...all that stuff swimming in the tank is now at bottom of tank...But would the Bleach hurt my Organic nutes too? or my plants? and is it really good for my yellowing roots? (DNW syst. hydro. 1000W. Organic nutes)
Cheers.bongsmilie:mrgreen:

You probably didn't hurt the plants but, 75% sure you killed off all the benificial bacteria in your res..

Everything I've read suggests that bleach will kill your organics. The other side of that is that the organics I used on my last round were fine with the tap water I used straight from the faucet. The question that needs to be asked is - what concentration results from 3-5ML per 50L? Tap water is said to be around 2ppm chlorine from most municipal sources.

I've been contemplating bleach in my non-organic aero grow, but have been waiting to see how my plants respond to DM Zone before making any changes.

so should i keep using this water feed..with the ~5ml/50L bleach in it? would the water be still good for feeding or did i destroy all my nutes by adding the bleach...do i keep using this amount of bleach ratio...should i stop using bleach and renew my water supply?
thanks Cheers

No just feed with plain water untill the prob goes away. if you have an algae prob then use hydrogen peroxide then go back to straight water. dont feed untill prob goes away
