Grotek Carbo-Max: energy for flowering, starting at the roots
During flowering, plants run at full power, and so do their roots. Around them lives a whole world of micro-organisms that help break down nutrients. Carbo-Max from Grotek feeds them what they like best: simple sugars. A dextrose and potassium powder added to your nutrients throughout flowering to support flower ripening.
How does Carbo-Max work?
- Dextrose, a simple, highly soluble sugar that fuels microbial life in the root zone.
- More available nutrients: Grotek links this microbial activity to better nutrient availability during flowering.
- Potassium (K₂O 1%) to support flower ripening.
