From Struggle to Strength: 3-Day Turnaround with Beneficial Bacteria
A leading hydroponic farm in New South Wales faced a familiar challenge: how to maintain top-quality lettuce growth during the colder months when water temperatures plunge to as low as 4°C at night. Traditional inputs like kelp nutrients and root boosters were no longer enough.
To address this, the grower implemented a trial using BBA Biosolution's beneficial bacteria products—Vital Roots and Phosphorus Booster—across 19 hydroponic tanks. The results were visible in just 72 hours: new white roots emerged from stressed plants, chlorotic leaves regained their vibrant green color, and system-wide plant vitality dramatically improved—even under outdoor winter conditions.
This case study proves that microbial balance is key to resilient growth in hydroponics, turning struggling crops into thriving ones in record time.
