Salt buildup has a multitude of downsides. It can inhibit your plants from absorbing nutrients as well as they should, clogs up piping, and forces you to flush thoroughly before harvest -- it wastes time AND money. Drip Clean was created to solve this problem. Drip Clean is used with each feeding throughout the grow cycle, keeping salt buildup at bay. This allows your plants to absorb added nutrients at their highest possible rate and cuts your flush time to only about 3-4 days. On top of that, any beneficial microbes you add to your feeding regimen will be unaffected; this is due to Drip Clean's utilization of ionic bond associations rather than corrosive methods to keep your system clean.
