ESSENTIALS PLUS - GREEN UP (Plant Aid)
Type: Mineral
Mineral feeds are dissolved minerals your plant can use straight away. They're fast-acting and precise, but it is possible to overdo them, so stick to the dose.
Calcium Straight to the Leaves
Calcium is one of the hardest nutrients for a plant to move around. Once it's built into a leaf it stays there, so fast-growing shoots can run short even when there's plenty in the roots. The result is curled, spotted or weak new growth.
Essentials PLUS GREEN UP is a calcium-rich foliar spray with nitrogen and fulvic acid. Spraying puts the calcium right where it's needed, and the fulvic acid helps the leaves absorb it.
Why It Works
- Calcium: for strong cell walls and healthy new growth
- Nitrogen: supports chlorophyll and green colour
- Fulvic acid: improves absorption through the leaf
- Foliar: goes straight to the new growth
For Houseplant & Garden Growers
Ideal for houseplants putting out pale or crinkled new leaves, and for tomatoes and peppers prone to calcium problems in pots.
For Growers
- Dose: 50ml per litre as a foliar spray
- How often: once a week, alongside your main nutrients
- When: spray in low light or just before the grow lights go out
🌿 Rose's Pro-Tip: Test a spray on a couple of leaves first and check them the next day, especially on soft or hairy-leaved plants.
