Introducing Geohumus Soil Enhancer

Geohumus is the newest patent-pending water storing granulate containing hybrid material that can store up to 30 times its own weight in water.

Geohumus is a soil enhancer containing trace elements and minerals that ensure better and quicker plant growth, which leads to an increase in biomass. It is produced by means of polymerization of a hybrid material with water storing qualities, volcanic rock flour and colloidal silicate.

Water that would previously have been lost to evaporation or seepage beyond root level is now retained. With Geohumus both seepage and the required water amount can be reduced considerably and irrigation periods can be lengthened.

Geohumus can be mixed with the substrate in a concentration of one per cent. Numerous scientific studies have shown that Geohumus is completely non-toxic and absolutely harmless for the environment. Geohumus remains in the soil for three to five years and will then be degraded biologically. Geohumus – Just Add It! Visit your local retailer to learn more.

White Widow from Humboldt Nutrients

White Widow is the newest and most powerful soluble mycorrhizal from Humboldt Nutrients. White Widow is a pure endo-mycorrhizal containing an extremely high and diverse amount of mycological spores. No other mycorrhizal on the market has more propagules per gram.

A soluble mycorrhizal inoculant relies heavily on the amount of spores in the product and the ability of that product to become soluble in water. White Widow is a super-fine powder that quickly and easily dissolves into water.

With White Widow the speed and aggressiveness of your plants’ root development is unprecedented. It is common to see large, furry, bright white roots shooting out of the bottom of containers only a week after transplanting.

White Widow is bacteria free, making it ideal for hydroponic systems. White Widow can also be used in soil and soilless gardens.

If you can keep things healthy on the surface, White Widow will handle the situation underneath. To learn more about White Widow contact an indoor gardening store near you.

Global Product Solutions Presents HID-1

HID lighting is an essential part of any indoor garden. Timers work great to turn lighting on and off. But what happens if the cooling fails while the lights are on...fried plants, plus momentary power outages, which negatively affect ballasts and lamps.

Early Turn A+B from Xtreme Nutrients

Turn growth into bloom, quick! Adapted from use in commercial horticulture, Early Turn has now been perfected for use in domestic hydroponics. Early Turn is a highly potent bloom stimulator that increases the effectiveness of other fertilizers and additives.
Early Turn is used in the first (Part A) and second week (Part B) of flowering with two primary actions. The first action is transition. Recognizing the stress on hydroponically-grown plants caused by an instant decrease in daylight hours, we developed Quick Turn to encourage the plants adapt seamlessly to the new environment and produce flowering sites much earlier.
The second action is to stimulate. After the plant has been caringly introduced to the new environment, Early Turn encourages rapid bloom. Early Turn easily stimulates the plant into full flowering production much earlier than normal. This same stimulate increases fertilizer usage and metabolic rate.
