esearch shows your plants’ roots are the key to

you notice about most hydroponics root zones is
they are biologically sterile. Nothing other than roots are
alive in them.
Or worse, sometimes, your root zone isn’t sterile because
your roots are attacked by harmful fungi, bacteria, and
diseases that eat your roots and rot them ...
And when you focus on your roots, you might notice
that they’re bare and spindly-looking. But healthy roots
actually look healthy, not like most roots you’ll see. They’re
“muscular,” intensely-branched, thickened, and robustly

Inserting beneficial microbes into your root zone is

let’s look at all the good things that’ll happen for your

For example, scientists bred pseudomonas chloro-

thing about pseudomonas and other PGPR’s: they
digest organic debris in your root zone by secreting
compounds called cytokinins that stimulate floral pro-
duction, plant health, and plant branching.
These cytokinins, otherwise known as phytohor-
mones, enter your plants and promote floral cell divi-

The first ingredient in this formulation gets nutrients into your
plants as quickly as possible. It’s an organic surfactant called Wet
Nutrient
Betty and it does something every plant grower wants …
Base
… Surfactants are wetting agents that lower the surface tension
of a liquid (in this case, nutrient-rich water) allowing easier
spreading and uptake of nutrients into your plants. This of course
means your plants will get the organic nutrients they crave faster
and more efficiently than ever before—which greatly increases
your plant’s growth abilities.
The second and third ingredients are humic and fulvic acids.
These organic acids give your plants an edge when it comes to
growing quicker, stronger and bigger … with less stress … than
with any other formulation and here’s why …
The humic provides natural carrier compounds that transport
nutrients and vitamins into plants more efficiently, so your plants
grow faster and have stronger cellular processes. In addition,
the Fulvic in this formula gives you quicker nutrient absorption,
nutrient transport, and more cellular metabolism. Together, they
work synergistically to maximize the time your plants spend in
bloom.

How To Measure Your
Growing Medium pH
So it’s important to monitor the pH levels in your
medium as well as your nutrients and the alkalinity of
water you are using. So how do you measure your growing
medium pH? Basically, there are three ways to do it:

that is the active zone for root growth.
Using pH Meters
So now, we should look at the meters we need to
measure the pH. There are so many different pH meters
available, but get one that uses dual solution to calibrate
your pH meter. It’s a good idea to get one that auto adjusts
and has ATC (automatic temperature compensation).
This will be more expensive but worth it. The cheaper
ones are a pain to use while the auto-adjust ones calibrate
at a press of a button, which makes it a lot easier. You
want to make sure that calibration is done every week.

Another thing, when limestone is added to your
growing medium, only a fraction of the lime reacts to
increase the pH to a stable level in 5 to 10 days after
planting. And this is called the reactive fraction.

If you use Sunshine #4 growing mix, you don’t want
to add limestone as it already has sufficient limestone in it,
and adding more will increase your growing medium’s pH.
