Iv been using hygrozyme for a little over 12 months now and am beginning to get really dubious as to wether this stuff is causing my root rot problems in hydro (dwc) and now after reading through some threads its seems others who are using are having problems.
i keep getting this root rot problem in hydro never had it before and i cant seem to get rid of it for shit! Iv been using Guardian Angel to help combat it and it seems to do nothing, i added h202 and its fucking worse in 24hrs!1 Any input on this product good or bad will be much appreciated....

As soon as I stopped using Hygrozyme in my Hempy buckets, I no longer had a rotten smell from the run off when I watered my plants and they really appreciated it.

i use...
vita water conditioner
rhizotonic
hygrozyme
supernatural bloom aqua... during the first 2 weeks of bloom

If you don't have good bb's already established in your system, then Hygrozyme can do more harm than good by catalyzing the biochemical reactions of the bad bacteria.

Get some Physan-20 and keep in on hand to sterilize things between grows.

Thanks for your input guys, i use Hygro in coco too and the plants seem to love it. I wont use it in hydro anymore its really fucked my grow up big time and iv lost alot of weed. It amazes me how this product is so highly recommended when it causes as much bad as it does good if not more. Iv never had any problems with any other enzyme products! Ridiculous.

Hygrozyme is made up of all enzymes. After a while they can go bad. I had my bottle for a little over a year and it started to leave a white-ish sludge on my roots, then they browned up and died. It worked wonders before that though.

If it were my guess, I'd say your hygrozyme is expired. There is a thread around here somewhere about it.

My Hygrozyme is fresh and as far as i know it shouldnt go off if stored properly. iIt works fine in coco but destroys the roots in hydro last bottle did exactly the same. Latest breakthrough in horticulture my ass this product shouldnt do this at all. Il be e-mailing them and see what they have to say about their oh so amazing product..

hygrozyme is a good product and keeps well on the shelf

I use it in soil and have noticed explosive growth. When used with small young plants I've seen an increase in nutrient uptake that burned plants that never were burned before. The root masses on plants used with hygro are gigantic masses of spinal column roots. Its proved its worth to me so I'll always use it.

The only time I notice signifigant root browning is when the roots have no space to grow. It does cause increase root mass so if your using it in small spaces, it may not be for you.
