House & Garden Bud-XL uses enzymes’ processes to extract sugars from the large bracts for storage in the fruits or flowers of the plant. This leads to bigger, sweeter and more robust fruits. The flowers will become larger and improve in color and quality.
House & Garden Bud-XL has a unique ability to extract sugars from the leaves of the plant and transfer them to the fruit. The fruit is made sweeter and its taste is improved. Bud-XL will also increase the size and robustness of the flowers, resulting in an increase in fruit production and greater turnover.
Start adding Bud-XL to the nutrient after the first flowers are formed. This is the period when the big bracts lose their functions. By adding Bud-XL you ensure that the plant's energy is no longer used for keeping the bract, but is directed into forming the flowers and fruits of the plants. Bud-XL also extracts sugars from the bracts and transports them to the flowers or fruits.
Prepare your nutrient container by first adding your base nutrient (e.g Soil, Coco, Aqua Flakes) to the water container Adjust your EC of the nutrient and then add your Bud-XL. Adjust the pH value to harmonize with the nutrient solution. Use House & Garden pH+ (up) or pH- (down) as this has been developed specifically for use with House & Garden nutrients and will give you a longer and more stable reading. Your nutrient solution is ready for its first watering.
