Dutch Pro Multi Total - Enzyme Root Zone Additive for Soil, Coco and Hydro
Best for: Growers who want to keep their root zone clean and active by breaking down dead root material and supporting beneficial microbial life, whatever medium they're growing in.
Our thoughts
This is a genuinely useful bit of kit for root zone health, not a flashy "miracle" product, but a proper enzyme complex doing a job that matters, clearing out dead root matter before it turns into a problem. We like that DutchPro have built it to work across soil, coco and hydro rather than locking you into one medium. Add it to your regular feed and let it work quietly in the background.
Dutch Pro Multi Total is an enzyme-based additive designed to break down dead root material in the growing medium into nutrients the plant can reuse, rather than leaving it to rot and become a source of root disease. It also helps improve the structure and water retention of your growing medium, and supports the beneficial microbial populations that keep a healthy root zone functioning.
It's formulated to work across soil, clay pebbles, coco and most other growing media, so it fits into an existing feed programme regardless of what system you're running. Alongside its enzyme action, DutchPro state it helps stimulate the plant's uptake of minerals and micronutrients and improves resistance to root rot and general root zone stress, effectively keeping the root system cleaner and more efficient over a full grow cycle.
How it compares
Enzyme additives are a well-established category, and Multi Total sits alongside the better-known names in it.
- Performs a similar core function to Canna Cannazym, breaking down dead root material via enzyme action, as an alternative from the DutchPro range.
- Complements rather than replaces microbial-based root products like House & Garden Roots Excelurator or Advanced Nutrients Piranha, which work via different mechanisms.
- Multi-medium compatibility across soil, coco and hydro makes it a more flexible fit for mixed setups than some root additives formulated for a single medium.
If you're already running DutchPro nutrients, this is the natural enzyme addition, if you're on another brand, it still slots in as a straightforward, multi-medium root zone additive.
Usage guidance
Used correctly, an enzyme additive works in the background rather than needing constant attention.
Adding to your feed
Add Multi Total to your nutrient solution at each feed or reservoir change, following the dose rate on the DutchPro feed chart for your grow stage and medium.
Reservoir systems
In recirculating hydro systems, keep using it consistently through the cycle so dead root matter is broken down as it's generated rather than allowed to build up.
Soil and coco
Water in as part of your regular feed, it works alongside your base nutrients rather than needing a separate watering.
Storage
Keep the bottle sealed and out of direct sunlight, enzyme products can lose potency if stored somewhere warm for extended periods.

Who this is for
- Growers already using DutchPro nutrients who want the matching enzyme additive
- Anyone running recirculating hydro systems where dead root matter can build up in the reservoir
- Soil and coco growers who want to support root zone health without switching their base nutrients
- Growers who've had root rot or stress issues and want an ongoing preventative additive
Our take
A sensible, unglamorous addition to a feed programme, it does a real job, clearing dead root material and supporting a healthy root zone, rather than promising something dramatic. Works across media, which makes it easy to fit in regardless of your setup.
One we'd recommend to anyone running a longer grow cycle where root zone hygiene starts to matter. Worth picking up alongside your regular DutchPro feed.
