Nanobubbles generator! Get the most out of your hydroponic gardening system

[@bourbonbear218]

Being able to grow food and be just that little bit more self reliant is one of the most freeing and independent things a person can do. And experimenting with different crops, grow methods, and every thing around the "hobby" is one of the most fun things a person can do.

Hopefully this will clear up some of the confusion about the oxygen needs of plants. Plants combine Carbon Dioxide, water and sunlight in a process called photosynthesis. This process allows plants to create sugars and as a byproduct of photosynthesis plants release oxygen. During the day a plant produces all the oxygen that is needed by the plant. The roots which are typically underground are not capable of photosynthesis and require oxygen to perform their functions. At night when photosynthesis is not occurring and oxygen is not being produced by the plant, plant root cells may become deficient in oxygen and die particularly when the roots are in standing water that has low levels of dissolved oxygen. These root cells basically "drown". This is why gardeners add perlite to the soil, so that the soil will be well draining allowing air(oxygen) to get to the roots. In hydroponics and aquaponics increasing the dissolved oxygen in the water keeps the roots from drowning despite being submerged in water 24/7. High levels of dissolved oxygen don't just keep the roots from drowning, it allows them to function at maximum capacity significantly increasing the potential growth rate of the plant assuming all other needs of the plant are ideal. Also many plant pathogens are anaerobic meaning that they do best in environments without oxygen or very low levels of oxygen. By increasing the dissolved oxygen you create an environment that is either very hostile or fatal to a host of plant pathogens.

Im tracking the smaller diameter bubbles but I dont follow the 15% to 85% delta in composition you mentioned. You're pulling ambient air and depositing it in solution. The composition of the bubbles would remain the same, the diameter would change. Unless you're claiming the magnet is somehow separating the ambient air into its constituent parts somehow. What science are you referring to that describes this effect? References that I could read up on?

[@togetherwegrow8340]

Hi David. Oxygen is paramagnetic, meaning it reacts to magnetism. UV/ photons/ light enable the transfer and generation of magnetism. This is why the best effect with nano bubbles is achieved during the daylight (as we suggested above). The UV from the sun helps enable a photon protection mechanism, meaning more ROS tolerance=more growth and development. The magnetism also increases PAR (photon absorption rate) = more photons (light) can be absorbed and converted into photosynthesis. This= more nutrient sense for, tastier, crisper, and bigger.

Hi abs pardon the delayed response. It creates a "grounding effect" to help disperse and breakdown the oxygen bubbles.

[@jonosterman2878]

If you want to see if I’m just BSing, try the food coloring test. Or the laser backscatter test. True nano bubbles can be seen by shining a laser through the water. It only works after you let all micro bubbles dissipate, leaving only true nano bubbles. With the food color test, you put two glasses of water, one with bubbles and one without, amd drop one drop of food coloring in each. The one with actual nano bubbles with dissipate the dye throughout the water quickly, while non bubble water will have a small plume that doesn’t spread out as much.

[@gokuzawa268]

This video is AMAZING !!! At first, I was sceptical about the magnet because I thought there's no way oxygen is attracted by a magnet. But actually, it is. The "level" af attractivness is low (paramagnetism) so if I'm understading it right, the attractivness and size of the magnet matters. Did you try different magnets? Also, O2 in waters tends to increase the pH, was it different (better or worse) with this system? Thank you for making this video, I believe it's a game changer !!

[@mickaelriess3086]

how effective is that magnet on the air bubbles. Is it really affecting the size and distribution of oxygen in the water? Is there a way to test / quantify the effects of this?

If there's a way to get the bubbles to pop, it would add more oxygen. It's all about Dissolved Oxygen. I was thinking that one of those foam fabric covers for airstones might help as it would cause the bubbles to pile up inside and burst?

this text from a scientific research paper brought me here: Many known cancer treatment methods rely on oxygen and/or ozone cancer treatment by gas and by liquid have demonstrated varying degree of successes. A new innovative approach is being applied relying on nano bubble water with high oxygenated level up to 15 to 20 ppm. Normal dissolved oxygen in water seldom exceed 10 ppm. Dissolved oxygen exceeding 10 ppm is in the form activated oxygen (inside nano bubbles) which has ORP value of +2.5V. Nano bubbles can penetrate all types of human membrane and provide oxygen into cancer cells which will cause cell death while healthy cells will prosper. These nano bubble will contain beneficial levels of dissolved nano nitric oxide which will enlarge bood vessels serrounding the cancer cell clusters which speed up the cure. In combination with fasting (no food intake except water) for 14 days, the human body will conduct self detoxification processes and expell toxins out through urine and excretion. Excretion will stop after 2 to 3 days of fasting. These samples analysis yielded various environmental, growth hormones, pesticides and antibiotics residues.

I just found your site and this video is very packed with a lot of science. I am really impressed! I've been working with a fellow professor on some hydroponic tests lately and I've introduced the use of bubbling browns gas (separated water molecules - 33% oxygen, 66% hydrogen gas) on our plants. I am going to build this bucket system that you have and use BG, instead of atmospheric air, for the water pump. If you can get a hold of a BG generator, or even a hydrogen generator, I think that you will find that you can increase your yield by x2 or more. We should communicate/talk some time. Your bucket system is what I've been looking for for months because it much simpler and less inexpensive than the other Asian nanobubble systems.

I had property with a geothermal water well and used greenhouses so everything kept nice and war in the winter. (Mossambique and Hornorum strains of fish) I learned from a guy in Florida how to breed them, raise them and harvest them. He was also dabbling into high oxygen systems as well.
