Ecothrive Neutralise 50ml is a highly concentrated tap water conditioner designed to rapidly neutralise both chlorine and chloramine before irrigation. Just 1-2 drops per litre prepares tap water for use with living soil and beneficial microorganisms, helping protect the biology that drives nutrient cycling and healthy plant growth.

Chlorine and chloramine are added to mains water to control microorganisms within the public water supply. That is important for drinking-water hygiene, but it can be counterproductive when growers are deliberately cultivating beneficial bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms within the root zone.

Neutralise provides a simple solution. Add a tiny quantity to tap water and it rapidly dechlorinates the water, allowing it to be used immediately rather than relying on lengthy standing periods or filtration equipment.

This is particularly useful for living soil, organic growing and microbial feeding programmes, but Neutralise can also be used to condition tap water for coco and hydroponic cultivation.

The compact 50ml dropper bottle is ideal for smaller growing systems and precise dosing. At Ecothrive's current guidance of 1-2 drops per litre, one bottle provides approximately 500-1,000 litres of treated water.

Why choose Ecothrive Neutralise?

  • Neutralises chlorine - rapidly conditions chlorinated tap water before it reaches the root zone.
  • Neutralises chloramine - deals with the more persistent disinfectant that cannot reliably be removed simply by leaving water standing.
  • Protects beneficial biology - particularly valuable for living soil and microbial growing programmes.
  • Ultra-concentrated - Ecothrive recommends only 1-2 drops per litre of tap water.
  • Works immediately - no 24-48 hour standing period is required before using the treated water.
  • Ideal for living soil - helps remove disinfectants before irrigation reaches beneficial bacteria and fungi.
  • Excellent with microbial products - condition tap water before mixing products such as Ecothrive Biosys or other biological inputs.
  • Suitable for soil, coco & hydroponics - useful wherever chlorinated mains water needs conditioning.
  • Simple drop dosing - the 50ml bottle makes small-volume water preparation quick and precise.
  • Excellent treatment capacity - approximately 500-1,000L of water per 50ml bottle at 1-2 drops/L.
  • No specialist filtration required - a straightforward solution where chlorine and chloramine removal is the objective.
  • Compact format - convenient for home growers, propagation areas and smaller irrigation reservoirs.

Why dechlorinate water for living soil?

Living soil cultivation depends on biology. Beneficial bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms break down organic materials, cycle nutrients and form complex relationships around plant roots.

Chlorine and chloramine are used specifically because of their antimicrobial properties. When maintaining a biologically active growing medium, it therefore makes sense to remove these disinfectants before irrigation.

Ecothrive specifically recommends Neutralise as part of its living soil approach to help keep soil biology alive and functioning effectively.

Dechlorinated water is also particularly important when preparing microbial products because it avoids introducing beneficial microorganisms directly into water that still contains residual disinfectants.

Why chloramine changes the way tap water should be treated

Many growers are familiar with the traditional method of filling a watering can or reservoir and leaving it standing before use.

This can help free chlorine dissipate, but chloramine is considerably more persistent. Ecothrive notes that standing tap water for 24-48 hours can gas off free chlorine, but this does not remove chloramine that may also be present.

Neutralise removes that uncertainty by conditioning water for both chlorine and chloramine.

Instead of preparing irrigation water a day or two in advance, growers can treat the water when required and use it immediately.

Ideal for use with Ecothrive Biosys & microbial products

Ecothrive specifically recommends dechlorinated water when preparing Biosys, its concentrated microbial inoculant.

When using tap water, Neutralise can be added first to remove chlorine and chloramine before the beneficial microorganisms are introduced.

The same principle applies when preparing other microbial inoculants, compost extracts and biological root-zone products.

Treating the source water first gives those organisms a more suitable environment from the moment they are introduced.

How to use Ecothrive Neutralise

Add 1-2 drops of Ecothrive Neutralise per litre of tap water.

Mix the water after dosing. Neutralise acts rapidly, allowing the conditioned water to be used immediately.

When preparing water containing nutrients or microbial products, add Neutralise to the source water first. Once the water has been dechlorinated, add the remaining products in your normal mixing sequence.

The dropper bottle makes the 50ml format particularly convenient for smaller reservoirs and hand-watering applications where dosing in millilitres would be unnecessarily difficult.

How much water will a 50ml bottle treat?

Ecothrive's current guidance is 1-2 drops per litre.

Using Ecothrive's dosage equivalence, a 50ml bottle can condition approximately 500-1,000 litres of tap water, depending on whether one or two drops per litre are used.

This gives the small 50ml bottle substantial treatment capacity while retaining the convenience of precise drop-by-drop application.

Where can Ecothrive Neutralise be used?

Living soil

Neutralise is especially useful in living soil, where growers are actively maintaining populations of beneficial microorganisms responsible for nutrient cycling and organic matter decomposition.

Organic soil cultivation

Condition tap water before applying organic amendments, microbial products, compost extracts or biological soil treatments.

Coco coir

Neutralise can be used to condition mains water before preparing coco nutrient solutions, particularly when biological additives form part of the feeding programme.

Hydroponics

Growers using tap water can dechlorinate their source water before preparing a hydroponic nutrient solution or reservoir.

Propagation

The precise 50ml dropper format is particularly convenient for the smaller quantities of water commonly prepared for seedlings, cuttings and young plants.

What Neutralise does and does not do

Ecothrive Neutralise is specifically designed to dechlorinate tap water. It should not be confused with a complete water purification or reverse-osmosis system.

It neutralises chlorine and chloramine but does not remove all of the naturally occurring dissolved minerals responsible for water hardness and background EC.

If the objective is simply to protect living soil or beneficial microorganisms from chlorine and chloramine, Neutralise provides a much simpler solution than processing the entire water supply through a specialist filtration system.

Ecothrive Neutralise 50ml FAQs

What does Ecothrive Neutralise do?

Neutralise rapidly dechlorinates tap water by neutralising both chlorine and chloramine before the water is used for irrigation or biological growing products.

Does Ecothrive Neutralise remove chloramine as well as chlorine?

Yes. Neutralise is specifically used for both chlorine and chloramine, making it more reliable than simply leaving tap water standing.

How much Ecothrive Neutralise should I use?

Ecothrive's current guidance is 1-2 drops per litre of tap water. Add it to the source water and mix before introducing microbial products or other inputs.

How much water does Ecothrive Neutralise 50ml treat?

A 50ml bottle can treat approximately 500-1,000 litres of tap water at the recommended 1-2 drops per litre.

Why should I dechlorinate water for living soil?

Living soil relies on beneficial microorganisms. Chlorine and chloramine are disinfectants, so removing them before irrigation helps protect the biological community growers are trying to maintain.

Can I just leave tap water standing overnight instead?

Standing water can help free chlorine dissipate, but Ecothrive notes that it does not remove persistent chloramine. Neutralise deals with both.

Can I use Neutralise with Ecothrive Biosys?

Yes. Ecothrive recommends dechlorinated water for Biosys because chlorine can harm beneficial microbes. Treat tap water with Neutralise before adding Biosys.

Should I add Neutralise before microbial products?

Yes. Condition the tap water first so the chlorine and chloramine have been neutralised before beneficial microorganisms are introduced.

Can Ecothrive Neutralise be used in coco?

Yes. It can be used to dechlorinate tap water before preparing irrigation or nutrient solutions for coco-grown plants.

Can Ecothrive Neutralise be used in hydroponics?

Yes. Neutralise can condition chlorinated mains water before it is used to prepare a hydroponic nutrient reservoir.

Is Neutralise useful during propagation?

Yes. The 50ml dropper bottle is particularly convenient when preparing small volumes of water for seedlings, cuttings and young plants.

Does Neutralise remove calcium and magnesium from hard water?

No. Neutralise targets chlorine and chloramine. It is not an RO filter and does not remove the dissolved calcium, magnesium and other minerals responsible for water hardness.

Does Ecothrive Neutralise replace a water filter?

It can remove the need for specialist filtration where the objective is specifically chlorine and chloramine neutralisation. It does not remove every dissolved substance that a full water purification system may target.

Why choose the 50ml Neutralise bottle?

The 50ml dropper bottle provides precise dosing for smaller reservoirs and hand watering while still treating approximately 500-1,000L of tap water.
