Startboost

STARTBOOST is the foundational vegetative additive in the APTUS lineup. Derived from humic acid, STARTBOOST can be used through the entire vegetative phase. Use as a root drench, foliar spray, seed starter and root dip.

Key Ingredients:
– Humic Acid: Building block of soil structure and health, natural chelator of various elements in the planting medium.

Dosage Instructions:
– Regular feeding: 1 ml per 1 gallon (0.25 ml per 1L)
– Seedlings/clones: 4 ml per 1 gallon (1 ml per 1L)
– Transplant root dip: 40 ml per 1 gallon (10 ml per 1L)
– Foliar spray: 4 ml per 1 gallon (1 ml per 1L)

How to Use:
Add STARTBOOST to your reservoir every feeding during the entire vegetative phase and into the first week of flower to assist with a healthy transition to the bloom cycle.

If you’re starting new seeds or clones, soak your plugs in a solution of STARTBOOST and water at the rate of 4 ml per gallon. If using rockwool plugs, make sure to pH the solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

About:
STARTBOOST along with FASiLITOR is a foundation product used throughout the seed starting, cloning, vegetative, and early flowering stages of growth. The leonardite used to make STARTBOOST is of the highest quality available. Leonardite is a mined natural source of humic material found within the earth.

Education:
Humic substances have a positive effect on plant physiology by influencing nutrient uptake and root system interactions with the planting medium. Through interactions with various compounds in the soil, countless complexes are formed from organic and mineral components. From the formation of these complexes, compounds may dissolve, mobilize, and transport products throughout the medium. It is these sets of complex-interactions with humic substances that provide soil health, structure, and ultimately benefit to the plant growing above.

Why Use Startboost?
Economical and easy to use. Use STARTBOOST at 1 ml per gallon through the vegetative phase of growth. Natural chelator of materials present in the planting medium.

Tips from the Field:
– Begin feeding with STARTBOOST (plus FASiLITOR) as soon as your plants develop initial roots and leaves. Continue feeding throughout the entire vegetative phase.
– Use at 4 ml per gallon to pre-soak cloning plugs or starter plant growth mediums.
– During transplanting, dip the roots of the plants directly in a 1:100 mixture (40 ml per gallon).
– You can safely go up to 4 ml per 1 gallon during the vegetative phase for an enhanced effect.
– Professional cultivators running the CLEAN Program often add STARTBOOST as a once per week feed to stimulate plant health and root growth.
