Greenhouse farming spans a wide cross section of plant species ranging from fruits and vegetables, to flowers and ornamental trees, to sod and tree nuts, to herbs and medicinals. Yet, through this diversity, preserving plant health is a universal challenge.
Greenhouse and field grown horticultural species are persistently under threat from issues such as poor water quality, pests and disease, poor growth cycles, and inadequate nutrient uptake. These ongoing concerns are critical for farmers and can directly impact the efficiency and profitability of their operations.
Horticulturalists understand that good plant health starts with clean water and healthy soil. This is where H2O2 Water and Hydroxyl can help. NSF and EPA approved Hydroxyl is a fast acting, ecologically sustainable, stabilized peroxide product with a prolonged efficiency time. Biodegradable and non-toxic, Hydroxyl is highly effective in neutralizing harmful fungi and other plant pathogens, preserving the soil’s beneficial microbiome, and eliminating the presence of harmful biofilms that may exist within the water containment and distribution systems. Hydroxyl decomposes into simple water and oxygen leaving no lasting chemical footprint and no harmful byproducts or coproducts behind making it ideal for environmentally sensitive applications such as food production.
Once introduced into water system or environment, Hydroxyl immediately goes to work and offers several benefits:
Keeps irrigation systems clean – Hydroxyl is effective in eliminating the build up of biofilms within water containment and irrigation systems. This ensures the water servicing the plants is as contaminant free as possible thereby reducing exposure to potential fungal, microbial and bacterial contaminants.
Reduces Instance of Disease – Hydroxyl effectively treats waterborne pathogens such as Pythium and Phytophthora), as well as rootzone toxicity, and bound nutrients (P, Mn, Fe).
Versatile – Hydroxyl is multifunctional and can be used for many greenhouse applications including as a water treatment for the irrigation system, as a sanitizer for workbenches/pots and transplanting tools, as a curative for diseased or sick plants, as a preventative against disease for healthy plants.
Reduces Reliance on Traditional Fumigants – Hydroxyl selectively oxidizes pathogens, biofilms, and nematodes while preserving beneficial microbes like Bacillus and mycorrhizae. This prevents or slows the recolonization of opportunistic pathogens thereby reducing the frequency of fumigation which in turn can result in a savings on operational cost.
Enhances Nutrient Uptake – Hydroxyl Increases soil ORP and oxygenates roots. This improves the plant’s root system and thereby its ability to absorb nutrients.
