"ZHO" Root Inoculant by Botanicare

I just got this ZHO Rhizosphere Root Inoculant this week and applied it to 5-6 outdoor plants in coco that are still young, roughly 3 weeks old.

We will see how it goes but I already know the powers of it's main ingredients based on past experiences with the same type of product but different company.

I will follow up in a few weeks to talk about how insane the root structure develops into a giant mass of feeders everywhere. For now, you can click on the flowers at the top of this page which will direct you to Sunlight Supply where you can find Botanicare ZHO. Be well.....

CNS-17 (commercial nutrient system 17)

CNS-17, otherwise known as "commercial nutrient system 17" is a real easy 1-part complete nutrient system that works great for both small and commercial grows. It's very thick, yogurt-like formula may surprise you at first, but be aware.. the thickness easily dilutes in water and the thickness is only because of it's suspension technology that keeps your plants roots happy.

The ones I have used, I have pictured here, which are Hydro Grow and Hydro Ripe. The Hydro grow is obviously for the veg stage and the Hydro ripe is even more obviously for late flowering. Both products delivered on time and in check and I can't complain one bit. The ones I do not have shown are "Hydro Bloom, Coco Grow, Coco Bloom, and Coco Ripe. There are 6 bottles in all, Grow, Bloom, and Ripe, for hydro and the same line for coco/soil. I'm so use to combining 2 bases and 4 boosters, that when I ran this stuff on a test run, it almost didn't feel right only using one single bottle and not having to worry about what the plants missing. My plants were missing nothing. No nutrient deficiencies what so ever throughout the entire run. I like it, you should try it. Be well...

Hydroplex

This is a great Bloom Booster/PK Spike that delivers in just a matter of days after the first application. 2-5 ml. per gallon will show you an increase in yield, flavor, and essential oil production. When I use Hydroplex as my spike, I watch my Phosphorous levels because this stuff contains a lot. Typically, the PH does not need to be messed with too much, but as always, it's best to check your levels after introducing a PK spike to your nutrient solution.

Hydroplex has a wide range amino acids, trace minerals, select vitamins to compliment the base "P" and "K". This formula claims to increase flower and fruit sets, promotes chlorophyll and protein production, promotes natural development of enzymes and vitamins, enhances the plants resistance to external stress, promote natural sugar development, speeds bloom process, and promotes essential oil production.

Well, I got some fat ass buds with sticky wads of gooey trichome goodness so I suppose that supports the above paragraph. Try it, don't be scared. You can pick this stuff up at Sunlight Supply. Finding their site is easy, just click the flowers at the top of this page. Be well.....

Botanicare "SWEET"

Not bad... not a bad product at all. It does what it says it does, which is enhanced production of trichomes and/or essential oils. There was a promotion deal when they were first released at my hydro shop, and I was one of the lucky ones to get a sample. After using up the sample, I went out and bought two oz. bottles of Grape and Raw. I bought a larger size (1 gallon) of Citrus. Some medicinal strains of plants I run carry a Berry aroma, which the SWEET Grape works with very well. Another strain has a strong citrus aroma, which of course I compliment with the SWEET Citrus. And last but not least, the SWEET raw is just a flavorless version of the mixture.

Each ones scent is very original in it's own nature and has a very pleasant, one of a kind smell. Dilution rate is pretty good at 10-15ml per. gallon. It's complimented by many beneficial elements and micro nutrients including scientifically formulated carbs, esters, organic acids, vitamins, and amino acids, it's base ingredients are Magnesium and Sulfur.

This stuff will be staying on my shelve. Very noticable effects on test runs with the trichome development compared to a plant of the same strain left untreated and given only base nutrients. Go try it, you will like what you see. They have smaller sized "trial" bottles for under $20 that should last you quite a few cycles. Take care and be well... -E
