FAQ
Product Questions
What are the main types of fertilisers that Gen200 offers?
Gen200 offers four products: Gen200 Control (ortho silicic acid) and three concentrated powdered fertilisers under the Rhodos line – Rhodos Base, Rhodos Grow, and Rhodos Bloom. Each of these products is formulated to address specific stages of plant development.
What is Gen200 Control and how does it benefit my plants?
Gen200 Control is a proprietary ortho silicic acid (SiOH4) formula launched in 2012. It enhances plant strength, improves nutrient uptake, and boosts overall plant health, making it ideal for indoor cultivation of flowers and fruit.
Can I use Rhodos fertilisers for both outdoor and indoor cultivation?
Yes, the Rhodos line is designed to be effective for both outdoor and indoor cultivation, providing the essential nutrients your plants need regardless of the growing environment.
What makes Rhodos Base different from Rhodos Grow and Rhodos Bloom?
Rhodos Base provides a comprehensive nutrient solution for the entire plant life cycle. Rhodos Grow is specifically formulated for the vegetative stage, enhancing biomass, leaf development, and photosynthetic capacity. Rhodos Bloom is tailored for the flowering and fruiting stages, promoting abundant and vibrant flowers.
Tips and Tricks
What tips do you have for maximizing the effectiveness of Rhodos fertilisers?
Always follow the recommended dosage and mixing instructions. Ensure your growing medium is well-aerated and has proper drainage. Monitor your plants regularly for any signs of nutrient deficiency or overfeeding, and adjust accordingly.
What is EC and why is it important for my plants?
Electrical Conductivity (EC) measures the concentration of soluble salts in your nutrient solution. It’s important because it helps you gauge the overall nutrient levels your plants are receiving, ensuring they get the right amount of food without being overfed or underfed.
How can I ensure my plants get the most out of Gen200 Control?
To maximize the benefits of Gen200 Control, consistently use it throughout your plant’s growth cycle. Combine it with a balanced fertiliser regime and provide optimal growing conditions such as appropriate lighting, humidity, and temperature.
What is pH and why does it matter for cultivation?
pH measures the acidity or alkalinity of your nutrient solution. The pH level affects nutrient availability to your plants. A balanced pH ensures that your plants can absorb the nutrients they need efficiently. For most plants, a pH range of 5.5 to 6.4 is optimal.
