Nutrients Anyone use Rhizotonic as a "pH Up"?

[MassMom]

I find my nute solution comes out at 5.4...so I have been using a ml or so of Rhizotonic to up it to 5.9. I figured its a 2 in one deal...pH goes up and I get the microbiological and vitamin bonus. Was just wondering if anyone else does this?

And does it stay up?

Yep, it goes up and stays up. I will say no more....

No, But I did order some to use. I had been looking at a couple different root stimulators and it was your root growth that put it over the top.

I used to use voodoo juice, then recharge....but I saw my sweetie @2Stoned2Care have some massive roots and he recommended Rhizotonic. I have been using it ever since!! Darn...I wish he was around, he seems to have taken
a little break.

I’m just using rapid start right now. It does enhance new root development it just gives the existing roots more hairs. It 100% works too. I hope to use both, but a little more research is required.

Rhizotonic is fantastic stuff MassMom, I've been using that for years and it's a lot better than other similar products I have tried.

I sometimes use Rhizo to raise the PH a tlittle, and as long as you're within the recommended 4ml, per litre than that's perfectly fine.

If you're find yourself using more than that to raise your PH then it won't do any harm but it's basically an expensive PH UP at that point and perhaps a waste?

Many growers I know use it for the same reason but again, only to raise PH a little...not for huge changes.

Hi hon!! oh lord yes, it is to expensive to exclusively use as a ph up. My RO water and GH Flora Trio usually has the pH fall right in place....but~sometimes depending on the blend of my nutes between baby, veg, and bloom the ph will vary off course and drop a bit, so I use a touch of Rhizo to bring it up. (like 0.5ml) I have it on hand anyways as I use it when they are babies and get WICKED roots from it. I'll never switch from it. Its more money, but worth gold to me

Rhizo is great, but expensive. I use growth tech liquid silicon as my PH up, generally @ 1ml per10l of mixed nutes(growers ark coco) to go from 5.5 - 6.4.

ETA: This is a bit old to reply to *my bad* hopefully it helps anyone else that wants to use a supplement for dual use.

For the record - I use Earth Juice sugar peak catalyst as PH down too.
