Product Description
The Flying Skull Elite plant food line is a highly soluble powdered nutrient. It was formulated to deliver high quality soluble nutrients to plants at lower EC/PPM levels (you use 2-3 times less than other brands). While formulated for production growing areas, the Elite line of nutrients do very well for hobby growers too.
The basic three-part formula (Elite Micro, Elite Grow and Elite Bloom) is non organic and is particulate free. This is important to growers who use hydroponic systems like Deep Water Culture, since inanimate slime (stemming from organic particulate) is the leading cause of plant death and system failure in these systems. All of the other products are used at very low doses because of their ultra-strength. Each product has is very low particulate when used at recommended rates. In most cases the grower will find that by simply following the feeding schedule, plant growth will be excellent. However, the way in which these three formulas were created gives the grower the ability to easily modify the basic formula for his particular plants. It is how you modify the amounts of Elite Micro, Elite Grow and Elite Bloom that pushes your plants from vegetation growth into bloom growth. This concept keeps the grower from having to purchase multiple products that virtually do the same thing. In other words, Flying Skull is formulated in such a manner that it costs less to obtain superior plant growth and consistent harvests.
General Directions
For most full sun plants, maintain 50 ppm / 0.1 EC of the grow formula’s recipe for every inch of plant height until the Feed Target* has been achieved.
Use Elite plant food at every watering. Leaves with curl, tip burn, very dark green or brown spots can be signs of feed strength being too high or feed buildup in growing medium. Should these signs occur, flush growing medium, reduce the feed strength (maintain ratio of each part) and observe growth. Optimum nutrient strength is the highest ppm/EC without leaf abnormality. The first of the run off (ppm/EC) must match the ppm/EC of the tank feed. For initial run off with high ppm/EC readings, flush growing medium, increase run off and feedings.
* Hydroponics Feed Target:
400 ppm / 0.8 EC to 650 ppm / 1.3 EC
* Soil/Soilless Feed Target:
250 ppm / 0.5 EC to 400 ppm / 0.8 EC
* Lettuce/Shade Plants Feed Target:
200 ppm / 0.4 EC to 350 ppm / 0.7 EC
Directions for Soil and Hydroponics:
Do not mix Elite Micro, Elite Grow and Elite Bloom together in concentration.
Add Elite Micro, Elite Grow and Elite Bloom separately to the main nutrient tank.
Adjust the nutrient pH to specific crop.
Start with lower strength first.
