Grow Better Without Compromise

Molecular hydrogen delivered through irrigation water has been shown to offer several potential benefits in the cellular health of plants, enabling facilities to reduce inputs and improve operational efficiency. Trials show that using HyO to boost irrigation water increases nutrient density, disease resistance, quality consistency, and shelf life across a range of crops and growing conditions.

Better Soil. Better Outcomes.

Hydrogen boosts the growth of plants, increasing yields at harvest with more fruit and leaf mass. It enhances root development with visibly healthier root systems that increase nutrient uptake. The result is dramatically improved soil health and plants that produce bigger yields and are more resistant to pests and stresses like high salinity or oxidative damage.

HyO’s patented hydrogen-rich irrigation (H2i) systems improve plant respiration, mineral uptake, and water movement in root&nbspsystems.

HyO creates hydrogen-rich water by generating molecular hydrogen and oxygen directly within the irrigation system, which can be delivered on-demand to the target crops.

HyO can be used in any grow operation, from outdoor/indoor soils to hydroponics and aeroponics.

How the HyO H2i System Works

Enzymes called hydrogenases allow soil microbes to oxidize molecular hydrogen, giving them a steady, low‑energy fuel source that supports survival, growth, and metabolic activity even under nutrient‑poor or stressful conditions. HyO powers these important microbes with hydrogen-rich water that strengthens carbon cycling and other biogeochemical processes that enhance soil function and crop health.¹

HyO’s hydrogen-rich water system plugs into any GFCI outlet and connects to existing irrigation water supply systems.

Water flow initiates the hydrogen cell and automatically turns off when water stops.

HyO’s system is fully scalable from small, boutique grow operations to large-scale farms.

Faster seedling production HyO water helps plant stems grow longer during the nursery stage, in some cases reaching the target seedling height in less than half the time.

Increased longevity—Hydrogen helps flowers stay fresh longer by blocking ethylene, the gas that makes flowers wilt. Flowers last longer in the vase with zero synthetic chemical additives and no post-harvest chemical treatments.
