Shogun – Start

Usage

Root Feed – Add plain water to your nutrient reservoir or watering can and allow to reach room temperature (If tap water, Ideally over night, to allow some of the chlorine to dissipate, but we know this is not always convenient!). Then add SHOGUN Start at a rate of 4mL/L to your nutrient reservoir or watering can. Before adding the nutrients, reduce the pH to just below 7 and then add your additives and nutrients. Recheck the pH (5.5-6.5) and the EC, making sure that it is no higher than 1.4. Repeat method for tank change/refill. Use for the very early stages of the plants life.

How it works:

The need for a young plant establishment nutrient solution is crucial for maximising yield and growth potential. However most nutrient companies have missed this all together and focused on growth stages. SHOGUN Fertilisers have realised through extensive field trials and scientific studies that crops given a gentle nutrient at seedling and cutting stage tremendously outperform those just given normal or half strength nutrients.

In addition the SHOGUN Start formula has been boosted with a unique ratio of boron and calcium which have been reported by peer reviewed journals to be key elements that drive vigorous root growth. Our ongoing research projects and dedicated testing program have allowed us to refine our formula to create the perfect blend of micro and macro nutrients for early stage growth.

Synergistic Effects

We recommend using SHOGUN Start alongside Katana Roots to maximise total benefits from both products. SHOGUN Start Amplifies the effect of Katana by moving auxins around the plant more effectively, giving better results in growth initiation in a much shorter time.

•     Reduces Germination Time
•     Reduces cutting failure rate
•     Used for pre-soaking media such as rockwool before transplanting plants.
•     Increase’s chlorophyll content and therefore photosynthesis
•     Contains SmartZen maximiser ingredient for enhanced nutrient uptake
•     Increases resistance to infection from pathogens
•     Supplies the perfect balance of macro and micro nutrients for young plants
•     Encourages fluffy white root development. Both lateral root development and root proliferation are both steered by the product formulation
•     Efficient nutrient uptake targeted to the early stages of growth
•     Humic and fulvic acid improves healthy growth and increases uptake of nutrients
