Water Master air pumps are a product that creates oxygen in the nutrient solution. These air pumps are absolutely necessary to oxygenate the nutrient reservoirs so that the water does not stagnate. You need a pump, silicone tubing and a diffuser stone.
Water Master air pumps are used to increase the percentage of oxygen molecules in the irrigation water, as it has been proven that a high oxygen content in the water has a positive influence on root development.
The relationship between roots and oxygen is of great importance and is often overlooked.
Nutrient uptake is an active process that depends on several factors and one of them is that there is enough oxygen available to the roots of the plant.
If the roots do not have enough oxygen in the root zone, their nutrient uptake capacity will be significantly reduced.
