Description
Neutralise instantly dechlorinates tap water, protecting beneficial microbes from harmful effects of chlorine and chloramine. It’s ideal for conditioning tap water before adding microbial products such as Biosys. It can also be used with soil, coco and hydroponic systems as a pre-treatment for irrigation water and nutrient solutions.
How Neutralise Works
Beneficial additives, like Mammoth P, Mykos and Biosys, fortify rootzones with colonies of fungi and bacteria that work to speed up growth rates and ward off pathogens, while improving the quality and size of your crop. If you’re using them with tap water, however, you may not be getting the very best from them.
Chlorine and chloramine help to control the spread of diseases and parasites, but, unfortunately these substances don’t discriminate between positive and negative microorganisms, having an equally devastating effect on beneficial populations.
- Instantly treats chlorine and chloramine
- Active ingredient is just vitamin C
- Produces chloride as a by-product (harmless plant micronutrient)
- Protects microorganisms (e.g. bacteria, enzymes, proteins)
- Allows microbial life to thrive
- Must have for organic growers
- 1 drop per Litre or 1ml per 20 Litres
Neutralise has been formulated to actively target the presence of chlorine and chloramine in tap water. Chlorine is a powerful disinfectant added to water supplies all across the UK to kill potentially harmful bacteria. No doubt you will have smelt chlorine when running the tap or having a shower.
Chlorine alone in tap water can create some unwanted harmful by-products, so water companies also utilise a more stable version of chlorine known as chloramine. The procedure involves mixing ammonia into chlorinated water. Chloramine is far more persistent than chlorine alone, making it more effective at killing bacteria right to the point of drinking your glass of tap water, or watering your plants.Stop Chlorine and Chloramine Killing Beneficial Biology!Chlorine compounds are very reactive, killing microbes by oxidation.
When present in the water as chlorine and chloramine they will readily oxidise enzymes, proteins, bacteria and other living microorganisms. Unfortunately they do not distinguish between “bad biology” and beneficials, so chlorine and chloramine can potentially knock back the microbiology in your growing media that your plants rely on.
The active ingredient in Neutralise is concentrated Vitamin C, a totally safe ingredient for your soil and plants.
