What is Hypochlorous Acid?
Our Hypochlorous Solution (HOCI) is a safe, full spectrum organic disinfectant that is derived from salt and a proprietary electrochemical treatment process. The result is a unique, plant-safe solution with powerful oxidative properties to safely disinfect your growing area, equipment and much more with no required PPE (personal protection equipment) to use. It has been found to be two orders of magnitude more effective than bleach, non-toxic to biologic tissues, and safer than both peracetic acid and quaternary ammonium. Green Houston's Hypochlorous solution is certified organic and registered with NRCS.
