There has been a budding interest in growing hydroponically around the country, and reading about it led me to review a study that had been done by BiOWiSH™ Technologies at a lettuce farm. The outcome of using BiOWiSH™ Crop was dramatic in plant growth results. The farm in the study had seven greenhouses in which grow a variety of lettuces, all grown on Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) tables.
In the study, the lettuce farm used BiOWiSH™ Crop to treat water that flowed through the dripper lines, micro-tubes and NFT gulley floors. BiOWiSH™ Crop was a natural additive for these purposes, since it increases the nutrient availability in water flowing to the plants' root systems. More nutrients mean better absorption, and more nutrients absorbed means bigger, healthier plants. And that is, in fact, what happened. In the six-week growth cycle, the farmer had lettuces that were double the usual size, all other factors being equal. This is the goal of all gardeners! Especially when growing space is limited...you want your gardening to result in as large and healthy a crop as possible in the space available.
BiOWiSH™ Crop is 100% natural, biodegradable and safe for use in a wide range of consumer, commercial and industrial situations. With over 18 years of research and development, BiOWiSH™ products accelerate enzymatic reactions over a thousand times faster than normal speed. These enzymes breakdown all non-living organic matter, so in addition to increasing the hydroponics’ grows water nutrient availability, it also prevents sludge build-up and scaling in the water lines!
