While initially doing research on using DO to help control biofilm, Dion Graber, owner of Microfarms, LLC in Indiana noticed a marked difference in yields out of his produce. He’s gone all in, using O2Grow’s largest oxygenator, the O2Grow-2250 to add DO to his irrigation tank for all of his plants. The market farmer, who provides fresh produce to local markets, says he’s seen an increase of 40% in tomato production, 50% in cucumbers and 60% in peppers. He says they’re also experiencing earlier harvests of lettuce (5-6 days earlier) out of their hydroponic system.
“Everything seems to look a lot healthier, the plants take up nutrients better,” says Graber. “This is a great find, it’s been incredible.”
