• What is the key difference between House & Garden Roots Excelurator Gold and Silver?

  The primary difference lies in their intended use for different growing media. Roots Excelurator Gold is formulated for soil and coco coir substrates, featuring a slightly thicker consistency with molasses to nourish beneficial microorganisms. Roots Excelurator Silver is designed specifically for hydroponic systems, with a thinner consistency to prevent clogging in drippers and pipework while still promoting explosive root growth and protecting against root diseases. Both are highly concentrated and effective root stimulators.

• How does House & Garden Bud-XL contribute to my plant's development?

  House & Garden Bud-XL is a unique bloom enhancer that significantly improves the size, quality, and taste of your flowers or fruits. Its key function is to extract sugars and carbohydrates from the plant's leaves and transport them directly to the developing fruits or flowers. This redirection of energy leads to bigger, denser, sweeter, and more robust yields, optimising the plant's genetic potential during the mid-to-late flowering stages.

• What are the main benefits of incorporating House & Garden Drip Clean into my feeding schedule?

  House & Garden Drip Clean is a crucial additive designed to prevent and remove salt build-up in your irrigation lines, growing medium, and even within the plant itself. By ensuring your system stays clean, it significantly improves nutrient uptake efficiency, prevents clogs, and can drastically reduce required flush times before harvest, promoting continuous, healthy plant function.

• What does House & Garden Amino Treatment do for my plants?

  House & Garden Amino Treatment is a powerful stimulant that enhances various aspects of plant growth and vitality. It contains a unique blend of amino acids, often derived from plant seed extracts, and may include bio-available silicon. It works to improve mineral absorption, increase the rate of photosynthesis, strengthen stalks, boost root activity, and contribute to overall plant vigour, leading to higher quality fruit production and increased sugar content. It acts as an overall plant tonic from vegetative growth into early flowering.
