I have the Medium size, use it for culturing phyto.

Works amazingly well, i think i'm on about my 6th batch now, basically just re-start it each week, and it gives me about 2L of phyto to dose each week.

Yes technically you can just make your own...but this was honestly so easy to set up and use.

Nice! I'm all about easy! So, please explain further if you don't mind. How easy? Do you have to clean it every week, wipe & spay everything down with alcohol? How do you start up a new culture? Have you had any crash?

The only one i ever had not work was my first, i really want to eventually culture Tiso so stupidly bought a bottle of it from my LFS thinking thats all i needed. Not so, Tiso cant be refrigerated for a starting culture.

Anyway i ended up just trying Nanno to start, and that has been so easy, never had a crash from it.
I just clean my jar and the beaker between batches with a 50/50 mix of Vinegar and water, takes about 20-30mins to get it all ready.
