Do you know how many diseases are waiting to attack the roots of your hydroponic crop? The effect of root disease can be mild through too devastating. Most growers have had the experience of thinking that their crop is going to be great only to find that, within the space of a few days, the crop’s condition has degenerated markedly. For example, the leaves start to change color and it begins to wilt. Almost without exception, your crop has been attacked by one of the myriad root diseases that lurk in the nooks and crannies of most hydro systems waiting for an opportunity to start feasting on your plant’s roots.
What are these diseases? There is Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Phytophthora which are the most common. In addition, there are several others which are less common but nevertheless very dangerous if they infect your crop. Among these are Thielaviopsis, Fusarium, Scerotinia and Cylindrocladium.
Pythium is the most commonly found root disease in both hydroponic systems and in the soil. The symptoms are quite specific. If the plant’s roots go brown and smelly and the plants wilt when the lights are on, then you are probably dealing with Pythium. Before blaming a disease, however, check that the nutrient aeration is ok. Lack of oxygen in the system can cause similar symptoms.
When plants are growing strongly, they can usually fight off the effects of the disease. They are able to produce chemicals which attack the disease organisms. When the plants are under stress, however, they produce much less of these chemicals and the disease organism can take hold.
Stress situations can occur at any time but flowering is always a stressful situation and is the time that disease is the most likely to get the upper hand. This occurs also because the plant’s energies are going into flowering and root growth tends to be limited to replacement of dead roots only.
Root Disease will always reduce both the quantity and quality of your crop.  At worst, they are your plants most deadly enemy.  By the time you recognize that you have a problem with a root disease, the damage has already been done.
Remember prevention is the key to success.
Regen-A-Root will restore and promote healthy roots in any hydroponic situation through the entire life cycle of the plant.  The roots are the plants foundation and if they are defective the plant will suffer and so will your yield. The roots of plants normally degenerate during the flowering phase so it is especially during this time that Regen-A-Root is a must have for the best yields.

APPLICATION

Use 1ml per Ltr in your nutrient solution throughout crop cycle.
Regen-A-Root may be used in any system but is suited to NFT and inert media based systems if used alone.
For a broader spectrum of protection, use in conjunction with Wilt Guard.
