Feed your plants with sugars, amino acids and vitamins and taste their sweetest and biggest buds.

If I were to ask you what really makes you happy about your hydroponic gardening, you would tell me that you love growing large quantities of potent, sweet-tasting flowers.

Seeing your room full of huge flowers that smell like candy (maybe like candyfloss at an amusement park), and then, after harvest, savouring that fine taste, aroma and potency with your friends.

The smiles on their faces and the pats on the back, that's what the good life is all about.

So, the big question is, what can you do right now to grow the biggest harvests of the best tasting and most potent flowers?

Start by providing energy to stimulate flowers when your plants need it most.
Getting sweeter, bigger harvests happens when you give your plants carbohydrates that jolt them with a boost of energy.

This is an important fact to remember, that during the peak flowering cycle, your plants' need for sugars exceeds their ability to produce sugars. The more you push them, the more CO2 and nutrients you give them, the more they need carbohydrates, the more they fall behind.

The resulting carbohydrate deficit is the same thing that happens when athletes collapse near the end of a gruelling competition. And that's why carb-loading is a favourite tactic athletes use to keep going on to victory when others crash and burn.

Not just any carbs, but the right ones for your plants.
Fueling your plants requires a special formula. In fact, your plants absorb simple or complex carbohydrates best when they are present as arabinose, dextrose, glucose, maltose and xylose from raw cane extract, malt extract, blueberry extract and other premium carbohydrate sources.

Not only does this put an end to the average bloom drop, but these materials feed beneficial bacteria and fungi in the root zone.

When you have installed beneficial bacteria and fungi in your root zone, they thrive best when they have externally provided carbohydrates to feed on.

Beneficial bacteria and fungi increase root mass, increase nutrient uptake, protect the roots and produce hormones that stimulate flower size, potency and value.

So, now that you've seen how to use the right types of carbohydrates to provide energy and improve roots, what else can you do to create gourmet flowers with enhanced flavour, size, potency and aroma?

It turns out that by providing the list of carbohydrate sources just discussed, you are also improving the flavour and aroma of your plants.
