SOME NOTES FOR USE:
If running the XpH with Reverse Osmosis (RO), Distilled, or Soft water, with few or no minerals, you may have to add Calcium and Magnesium (Cal-Mag) to help kick-start this process. Cal-Mag should be added first to water and given several minutes to interact before adding other nutrients
Smaller Reservoirs (20Gal or under) can tend to build up higher charges, and bring pH downward in some situations. Larger Reservoirs can be helpful, consistently topping off the water with less-charged source water (Fewer minerals, and higher pH), or reservoir water changes. This is adaptable to your style of growing.
Water movement and recirculation should be done within the system for better water health and efficient ion interaction.
HOW IT WORKS
pH maintenance is an essential factor in any hydroponics setup. Without a proper state of charge (pH), water will lose vitality, nutrients will become less bio-available, and the growth rate of plants will diminish. Our Automated pH Regulators (such as the XpH) solves this by maintaining this charge state, creating the ideal environment for your plants and water.
THE SCIENCE
In order for your plant’s roots to uptake the nutrients essential for growth, a slightly acidic pH range (or state of charge) is required. When the state of charge of the water diminishes, you will experience stunted growth, reduced health, and potential “nutrient lockout” where the plants’ nutrients are less bio-available.
BENEFITS:
– Eliminate the daily need for Buffers such as pH Up or Down
– Maintains a healthy charge and vitality of your water
– No daily pH checks
– Less nutrient usage
– Less maintenance and labor
Automated pH Regulators
XpH Capsule Model
The XpH Capsule models will allow users to replace the ion bead Refill Pods every 4-8 weeks to ensure optimal efficiency. No additional liquid Recharge Solution is need (as required with our previous (Legacy) capsule models.
Refill Pods
Torus Hydro’s Refill Pods keep your XpH – Automated pH Regulator working optimally. Our new and improved Refill Pods are incredibly simple and easy to use compared to our legacy liquid recharge solution.
These pods are packed matrices of charged ions, to maintain water health and regulate pH.
Each package contains 3 pods. Each pod lasts an estimated 4-8 weeks
