I use diy bubble buckets and I see many people use a wetting agent or protection on there hydro setup..I've seen hydroguard is ok..someone says they use sm-90..I would like to know what everyone suggests..thanks have a great day
Looks to me your bucket is white ? Roots do not like light nor white …………. I dump and flush my system every 7 to 10 days with fresh RO water . Then refill with fresh RO water . I use ( BushWacker Hammer down ) down .. 3 drops per gallon if I am using new clay balls maybe once every month or 6 weeks . I sterilize my whole grow area and system every harvest. Cleaners and I use UV-C lighting . I don't know if this is a good idea or not might destroy the nuets in the water and I never have had a algae or fungi issue in my Areo ponic set up which at certain times is a DWC when I fill the system to max hydro capacity . But you can put a fish tank sterilizing system in the water tank. This where water passes in front of a UV-C light .. UV-C light kills everything on contact that is single celled .. In open air UV-C lighting emits its own deadly ozone that kills all fungi above and below the leaf even if the UV-C light isn't contacting that part of the plant . But using UV-C light comes with a learning curve on how much the plant can handle ... Dawn dish soap is plant friendly, I would use like 1 to 3 drops per gallon , then rinse or flush and rinse . As said I completely flush my system every 7 to 10 days and haven't had one issue with Algae ..or fungi . Good luck.
Thank you so much that was great info..the plants in the photo turned out to have male parts so the next set I can use these ideas
