Dear Haters, I Have So Much More For You To Be Mad
Veteran
I gotta try this stuff out. I'm only on my 2nd grow and my first grow 2 plants(25%) experienced some kind of lockout. Obviously because I am new I haven't dialed in the feeding so this stuff seems like it can help my margin of error.

Cheers!



You use so little of it, its very cost effective....

I ran my Med-Man tables for nearly 7 weeks before I did a flush. Only flushed out 100 ppm's!

Boys, thanks for the info. I just want to point out that the actual molecules used in drip clean are listed in this safety sheet

http://sunlightsupply.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/product/749762_SDS.pdf

It says

Phosphoric Acid* (CAS Number: 7664-38-2)

This type of phosphoric acid is an ORTHO as well as seen here:

And also contains

Potassium Oxide* (CAS Number: 12136-45-7)

https://m.chemicalbook.com/ChemicalProductProperty_EN_CB1851546.htm

Aka potassium monoxide, which turns into KOH in water.
