FAQ's
-
What is Vitalink Clay Pebbles, and what are its main advantages as a growing medium?
Vitalink Clay Pebbles are a popular inert, lightweight growing medium made from expanded clay. Their primary advantages include excellent aeration around the root zone due to their porous structure, superb drainage to prevent water-logging, and strong support for plants. They are pH stable, reusable, and promote efficient nutrient and oxygen uptake, making them ideal for various hydroponic systems like DWC or drip irrigation.
-
How does Vitalink Fulvic benefit plant growth and nutrient absorption?
Vitalink Fulvic is a powerful bio-stimulant that plays a crucial role in plant metabolism and nutrient uptake. It acts as a chelating agent, binding with mineral nutrients to make them more easily available and transportable for plant absorption. This leads to increased nutrient efficiency, improved plant vitality, faster growth, and enhanced development throughout all stages of the plant's life cycle.
-
What is Vitalink Chill used for in hydroponic systems, particularly in warm conditions?
Vitalink Chill is a specialised additive designed to help plants cope with high temperatures and heat stress in the nutrient solution. It helps to keep the nutrient solution cooler and maintains optimal dissolved oxygen levels, which can quickly deplete in warm water. By protecting roots from temperature-related damage and improving nutrient uptake in warmer climates, Chill ensures plants remain healthy and productive, even when environmental conditions are challenging.
-
What is Vitalink Buddy, and how does it enhance flowering and fruiting?
Vitalink Buddy is a potent bloom booster designed to significantly enhance the size, weight, and density of flowers and fruits during the crucial late flowering phase. It provides a concentrated dose of essential nutrients and bio-stimulants that drive the plant's energy towards reproductive development, leading to a more abundant and higher-quality final harvest.

How does the VitaLink Essentials pH Test Indicator help in managing nutrient solution pH?
The VitaLink Essentials pH Test Indicator is a simple and affordable tool for accurately measuring the pH level of your nutrient solution. By adding a few drops of the indicator liquid to a sample of your solution, the colour of the sample changes, which you then compare to a provided colour chart. This allows growers to quickly determine if their pH is within the optimal range (typically 5.8-6.2 for hydroponics) for efficient nutrient uptake.
