Description

Growth Technology Oxy PlusOxyplus is an incredibly useful product for the grower to have on hand at all times. It is a useful way of adding fresh oxygen to a nutrient solution. At room temperature, a nutrient solution is lucky to have 10 ppm of dissolved oxygen, which can be rapidly depleted by active roots and unless the oxygen is replaced the roots will be growing in a low oxygen environment and their performance will suffer as a consequence. Oxyplus is also a sanitising

Oxyplus is an incredibly useful product for the grower to have on hand at all times. It is a useful way of adding fresh oxygen to a nutrient solution. At room temperature, a nutrient solution is lucky to have 10 ppm of dissolved oxygen, which can be rapidly depleted by active roots and unless the oxygen is replaced the roots will be growing in a low oxygen environment and their performance will suffer as a consequence.

Oxyplus is also a sanitising agent. If added to the nutrient solution on a regular basis it will combat diseases like Pythium, probably the main root disease found in hydroponic systems.

The active ingredient in Oxyplus is 50% hydrogen peroxide, so great care is needed when handling this product. Gloves and eye protection is strongly recommended.

Health and Safety


    • always wear gloves and eye protection

    • store in a locked cupboard

    • keep away from children

What is it exactly?

Oxyplus is a 50% solution of hydrogen peroxide. This is significantly stronger than the 3% solution you get at the chemists and it is a very useful product for serious growers to have on hand.

What does it do then?

It does two incredibly useful things. The first thing it does as soon as you add it to your hydroponic nutrient tank is that it starts to slowly break down, which doesn’t sound so brilliant until you realize that one of the things it breaks down to is oxygen. The same oxygen that is in the air that you breathe, except that this oxygen is dissolved in your nutrient solution. Roots cannot do their job if there isn’t enough oxygen dissolved in the nutrient solution.

If that isn’t enough, Oxyplus will also directly kill microbes in the nutrient solution. No more root rot diseases. So at the end of the day, better plants all round.

How does it do it?

There are a couple of things to remember about the hydrogen peroxide molecule. It is really unstable. It will split and make water and oxygen all by itself. It is also a strong oxidising agent. This means it will take apart microbes atom by atom which is quite useful in hydroponics. Hydrogen peroxide is also very reactive. This means it does its job quickly and efficiently.

OK, how do I use it?

Simple. Carefully pour out the required volume of Oxyplus and dissolve it in your nutrient solution. It is a good idea to agitate the nutrient to get it spread evenly in the nutrient.

What about dose rates.

Maximum dose: 1ml of Oxyplus per 5 litres of nutrient solution will give 100ppm of hydrogen peroxide, and this is the maximum dose you can give without damaging the roots. This is the sort of dose that you should use if there is a disease in the roots.

Preventative dose: 1ml of Oxyplus for each 10 litres of nutrient solution. This will give 50ppm of hydrogen peroxide which will help prevent disease and keep the nutrient solution oxygenated.

Sterilizing the system between crops: 1ml of Oxyplus per 1 litre of water.  Allow 2 hours for this, and then rinse thoroughly with water.

How often should I dose the tank?

Twice a week is a good rule of thumb. If you want to be more exact then you can buy peroxide test strips online.

Any precautions?

Oh Yes. Gloves and eye protection are a must. Keep it well away from children. Store it in a cool dark place. There is a material safety data sheet available at www.growthtechnology.com.au

What should I expect if I use Oxyplus?

Clean tank, disease free nutrient solution, healthy vigorous white roots and fantastic plants.

Student Review
This book is an excellent introduction to the basic principles of insurance. We used this text as a supplement in our Intro to Act. Sci. class. It is very readable, easy to understand. Minimal mathematics required, some basic calculus concepts used, but only briefly. Don't let it's small size fool ya, it has plenty of information in there.

A #MustRead for cybersecurity practitioners
Format: Kindle
Rick Howard's latest book is the ultimate reference for cybersecurity practitioners, making it an essential read for anyone in the field. With his straightforward and refreshingly irreverent writing style, coupled with his profound technical knowledge, Rick has created a narrative that is easy to understand and grasp. He delves into the foundational aspect of cybersecurity, which he refers to as the cybersecurity first principle, which he then it to specific high-impact strategies. The book has eight well-written chapters providing a comprehensive overview of those strategies. Importantly, Rick then offers an up-to-date and thorough exploration of the complementary capabilities (tactical-level tools) that can be utilized to "reduce the probability of material impact due to a cyber event" - the cyber first principle. In the concluding chapter, Rick succinctly summarizes his contribution to the field, stating, "And that's it. Those are all the tools you need to design, build, and enhance a cybersecurity program based on first principle thinking." This assertion highlights the value of his book as a practical guide for designing and improving cybersecurity programs with a focus on first principles.

Absolute must read if you oversee any portion of a cyber security program!
Format: Paperback
I loved this book. The concepts and ideas presented are a great wake up call for an industry that is so focused on blinking light hardware and the next big technological thing...this book challenges the paradigm that you need to strip your security culture down to some very core ideas...then build a solid security program around your security first principle(s). Without that core idea, you're just throwing away money on tools that may not actually be addressing your root needs. Great read for anyone looking to rethink their security program, security culture, and security spend. BRAVO!

Context, Strategies and Wisdom in a single package
Format: Kindle
This was my first book I have read by this particular author. I had spent some time looking for a comphrensive approach to Cyber Security and found many other texts to be lacking. Certain aspects are well documented, but no single source that brought it all together. This is exactly what First Principles brings to the table. As a practicioner that looks for better ways to formulate the objectives of SecOps Use Cases I have found the methods presented in this book to be immensely helpful. I have also given copies aways as a gifts to students who are just entering the field as this is by far the best intro to the long history of Cyber Security that combines the best direction for the future. The historical context that the author brings through first hand experience is beyond a treasure trove. It has been said many times in cheezy ads, but honestly, if you only read one book on Cyber Security make it this one.
