Prime2Bud 2-2-2 New From Terra Nova Prime2Bud™ 2-2-2 primes plants to set more buds. The secret is to start early so as to induce buds that develop later in the flowering stage. This is because actual bud development begins unseen within plants early in the flowering stage and is triggered by light duration and hormones. Growers can control this process with lighting and administration of bud induction hormones found in certain species of kelp. Prime2Bud™ contains high levels of these natural hormones, as well as auxins and cytokinins. This product also stimulates aggressive root growth. For best results, use in rotation with Gusher™. Visit your local hydroponics store for more information.
