watering a bulk substrate after first flush drying
    #25631245 - 11/21/18 10:34 PM (6 years, 1 month ago)

Hello to all, this might be my first post here but my introdoction to this forum for the first time was years ago...  :-)
I'm currently growing in bulk method using horse poo as my bulk substrate and I've tried to found an answer to this question but couldn't...
after first flush and letting a fan be a bit to close to my bath, it got dried,
I'm not so sure what is the best way to water it again, would love to hear your suggestions :-)  thank you

I know some growers have poured dihydrogen monoxide over their substrates after a flush, an this binds H2O to the bulk substrate and rehydrates the organism. This is what I also do. I let the dihydrogen monoxide work for 6h to a half day. This seems to be plenty. Gl

this is totally wrong, completely bad advice. what you want to do is add hydroxylic acid. that's what i do. i just pour a little around the sides and let it sit for a day or so and then pour the excess off. careful though, hydroxylic acid accelerates corrosion and can cause suffocation.

if this confuses you try looking here (click me)
