Cleaners

SUBSTRA CLEANER

When inert substrates such as mapito, rock wool and clay pebbles are reused, they can become contaminated due to the growth of plant pathogenic (harmful) bacteria, moulds (such as Pythium, better known as root rot), viruses, slime formation, sedimentation and salt crystallisation.

Substra Cleaner is the solution. Use Substra Cleaner to rinse your substrates between crops. Substra Cleaner kills all plant pathogenic bacteria, moulds and viruses in substrates. After cleaning a substrate using Substra Cleaner, allow it to rest for 24 hours. Then soak the substrate in a nutrient solution.

Substra Cleaner is made up of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and breaks down into water (H2O) and oxygen (O2) within 24 hours. This is beneficial to young plants, encouraging them to shoot out roots. Substra Cleaner is the ideal solution when it comes to reusing substrates.

DRIP PRO

Prevents blockages formed by inorganic salts in drip systems. When used in combination with Oxy Org, the two products work synergistically or, in other words, boost each other’s effect. Drip Pro also has a cleansing effect during cultivation and is biodegradable.

Drip Pro prevents and eliminates blockages caused by the crystallisation and sedimentation of inorganic salts in drip systems. The product is safe to use during cultivation.

OXY ORG

Prevents organic blockages, slime formation and bacteria growth in drip systems. When used in combination with Drip Pro, the two products work synergistically, provided they are used together in the correct way. Oxy Org also has a cleansing effect during cultivation and is biodegradable. Oxy Org prevents and eliminates organic blockages and prevents the formation of slime and bacteria in drip systems. Oxy Org also kills Pythium (the mould that causes root rot) in substrates.

The product is safe to use during cultivation.

DEMI-WATER

There are countless applications for demineralised water. The technique we use for demineralising water is reverse osmosis (RO). This method involves passing the water through several filters, where it is put under pressure and pressed through a membrane. This filters out all of the salts. Demineralised water has no EC value and contains no salts. Demi Water has not only been stripped of all of its nutrient salts but is also free of all bacteria, moulds and other pathogens, which are killed and then removed by passing the water through a UV-C filter.

Demi Water is often used for storing pH electrodes or for cleaning them. Other applications include the filling of steam irons, the topping up of batteries, or use as process water. These days it is commonly used by window cleaners for achieving streak-free windows.

Available in 1 litre bottles, 5 and 10 litre jerrycans and 1000 litre IBCs.
