Clearex Salt Leaching Solution for Hydroponics & Coco
Botanicare Clearex is an isotonic drench engineered to unlock the ionic bond between nutrient salts and your substrate, then carry those salts out of soil, coco, rockwool, and hydroponic systems. By matching osmotic pressure, Clearex helps plants maintain cell turgor and avoid plasmolysis—an issue that water-only flushes can worsen—so roots keep functioning while excess EC is reduced. Use it when runoff EC spikes, after heavy feeding, or anytime plants show signs of nutrient lockout, tip burn, or stalled growth.
How to Use Clearex for Salt Buildup & Nutrient Lockout
Apply Clearex as a dedicated rinse (not mixed with base nutrients) and run enough solution to achieve meaningful runoff; in recirculating systems, treat and then replace the reservoir with fresh nutrient solution. Aim for runoff EC/TDS to trend toward your input, confirming salts are being pulled from the root zone. Maintain crop-appropriate pH during the rinse, and resume your regular feed once runoff stabilizes. Clearex is compatible with soil and soilless media (coco, rockwool, peat mixes) and common hydroponic setups (DWC, drip, ebb & flow), making it a reliable maintenance flush throughout veg and bloom.
Pre-Harvest Flush to Preserve Flavor, Aroma & Yield
In the final 3–7 days before harvest, a Clearex flush encourages plants to mobilize endogenous reserves while helping protect terpene production and finish quality. This targeted, isotonic pre-harvest rinse supports cleaner burn and brighter aromas by removing extraneous mineral residues without shocking tissues. Growers use Clearex at the end of the cycle to promote a smooth finish, consistent potency, and dependable post-harvest results across fruits, vegetables, culinary herbs, and flowers.
Key benefits:
-
Fast salt removal without shock – Isotonic drench pulls excess salts from soil, coco, rockwool, and hydroponics while maintaining cell turgor (no water-only flush stress).
-
Ends nutrient lockout – Frees bound minerals so roots resume uptake, helping reverse tip burn, stalled growth, and high runoff EC.
-
Measured, reliable results – Use with your EC/TDS meter to see runoff trend toward input, confirming a cleaner root zone and faster plant recovery.
-
Pre-harvest quality boost – A 3–7 day Clearex flush supports terpene retention, cleaner flavor/aroma, and a smoother finish across fruits, herbs, and flowers.
-
Easy, system-wide compatibility – Works in DWC, drip, ebb & flow, and potting mixes; simple maintenance flush between heavy feeds to keep media balanced.
