Effortlessly Clean Your Root Zone with Athena Cleanse

Keep your root zone and irrigation systems clean and efficient using Athena Cleanse, a plant-safe and non-toxic solution. It is formulated from Hypochlorous acid, a mild yet powerful acid derived from salt using a special electrochemical process. Athena Cleanse removes unwanted organic and mineral buildup while reducing mineral scale, ensuring a healthy root zone for your plants.

Features and Benefits

  • Non-toxic and non-nutritive: Safe for plants at any stage of growth
  • Descaling and decomposition: Breaks down mineral buildup and organic matter in irrigation systems
  • Final flush effectiveness: Removes mineral scale from growing media and irrigation lines
  • Low TDS: Doesn't affect the mineral balance of your plants
  • Keeps irrigation systems clean: Prolong the efficiency of your irrigation systems
  • Reduces mineral buildup: Prevents plant health problems caused by mineral deficiencies

How to Use

  1. System Maintenance: Regularly maintain your irrigation systems with a dilute mixture of 2-5 mL per gallon of water for longevity and optimal function.
  2. Severe Conditions: Increase the rate to 5-10 mL per gallon of water for extreme reservoir and growing media conditions.
  3. Cuttings/Clones: Dip fresh cuttings in a solution of Athena Cleanse (10 mL per gallon) to improve cell health and immunity. This leads to vigorous plant growth with bright white and healthy roots.
  4. RDWC and Other Recirculating Hydroponics Systems: Use Athena Cleanse to remove mineral residue and reduce scale in deep water culture and recirculating irrigation systems, preventing anaerobic microbial growth and biofilm buildup.
  5. Media/System Flush: Mix Athena Cleanse at a rate of 5-10 mL per gallon of water during the final flush stage to reduce residual mineral buildup in the growing media. This procedure can be used at any time during the plant's life cycle.
  6. Foliar Applications: Mix 375 mL Cleanse per gallon of water and spray evenly. Test on a small area first to ensure no damage.
  7. Surface Treatment/Cleaning: Spray cultivation surfaces, work areas, and equipment with a diluted solution of Athena Cleanse (375 mL per gallon) for a clean and trouble-free environment without toxic chemicals.

FAQs

What is Athena Cleanse made of and how does it benefit my plants?

Athena Cleanse is made from Hypochlorous acid, which is a safe and mild acid derived from salt and a proprietary electrochemical treatment process. It acts as a powerful root zone optimizing agent, keeping the root zone clean and free of unwanted organic and mineral buildup. By using Athena Cleanse, you can maintain a healthier root environment, prevent mineral scale in irrigation systems, and ensure efficient nutrient absorption for your plants.

Can Athena Cleanse be used at any stage of plant growth?

Yes, Athena Cleanse is non-toxic and non-nutritive, making it safe to use on plants at any stage of growth. It helps keep your plants healthy and vigorous, from seedlings and clones to mature plants.

How do I use Athena Cleanse for system maintenance?

For regular maintenance, use a dilute mixture of 2-5 mL per gallon of water. For severe reservoir and growing media conditions, increase the rate to 5-10 mL per gallon of water.

How can Athena Cleanse be used for cuttings and clones?

Dip fresh cuttings in a solution of Athena Cleanse (10 mL per gallon) to enhance cell health and boost the plant's immunity. Cuttings and seedlings treated with Cleanse will have more vigor, leading to stronger, more robust growth.

Can I use Athena Cleanse in recirculating hydroponics systems like RDWC?

Yes, Athena Cleanse is highly recommended for recirculating and deep water culture (DWC) systems, as it helps remove mineral residue and reduces scale, promoting a healthier environment for plant roots.

How do I create a media/system flush mix with Athena Cleanse?

Mix Athena Cleanse at a rate of 5-10 mL per gallon of water during the final flush stage to help break down residual mineral buildup in the growing media. This procedure can be used at any time during the vegetative or flowering phases to address mineral imbalances or unwanted buildup.

Can I use Athena Cleanse for foliar applications or surface treatments?

Yes, mix 375 mL of Cleanse per gallon of water for foliar applications, but test on a small area first to ensure no damage. For surface treatments or cleaning cultivation areas, use the same dilution rate, spraying equipment and surfaces to maintain a clean working environment without the use of toxic chemicals.
