8% Controlled Nitrogen: Keeps plant energy focused on heavy fruit production rather than runaway vine growth.
-
16% Enhanced Phosphate: Promotes vigorous root development and supports continuous flowering throughout a long growing season.
-
36% Soluble Potash: Delivers high levels of potassium to support water regulation, maximize sugar transport, increase cell-wall strength, and extend post-harvest shelf life.
-

Complete Micronutrient Package: Fortified with EDTA-chelated iron, manganese, zinc, and copper, plus boron and molybdenum to prevent deficiencies and support robust plant health.
-
Clean & Versatile Application: Dissolves completely and cleanly without clogging lines. Perfect for use in hydroponic reservoirs, drip fertigation systems, soil and container growing, or as a foliar spray.
-
Tested & Trusted: CDFA registered and rigorously third-party lab tested for heavy metals, with results consistently well below required safety limits.
Important Application & Mixing Notes
-
Calcium-Free by Design: To prevent precipitation and nutrient lockout, this formula intentionally does not contain calcium (calcium and phosphate should never be combined in a concentrated stock solution). Please apply a separate calcium source independently.
-
Mixing Best Practices: Always pre-dissolve each fertilizer separately before adding to your main reservoir. Follow label crop restrictions carefully.
-
Foliar Spraying: For best results and to avoid leaf burn, apply foliar sprays in the early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are below 85°F.
-
Storage: Keep sealed and store in a dry environment to maintain maximum freshness and solubility.
