Its job is not to add more nutrient but to make what is already in the tank easier for the plant to take up: humic and fulvic molecules chelate mineral ions, holding them in a form that crosses the root membrane readily instead of binding to the medium or dropping out of solution. It also feeds the \u003cstrong\u003erhizosphere\u003c\/strong\u003e, supporting the beneficial microbes that do a share of the nutrient cycling in coco and soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChelates minerals into an available form\u003c\/strong\u003e — nutrients that would otherwise lock up stay in solution and reach the root\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeeds the root zone, not just the plant\u003c\/strong\u003e — supports the beneficial microbe population that keeps a medium working\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarries calcium and magnesium\u003c\/strong\u003e — the two elements coco and hard water most often leave short\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFulvic for foliar, humic for the root\u003c\/strong\u003e — fulvic acids are the smaller molecule and cross the leaf surface as well as the root\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUsable at every stage\u003c\/strong\u003e, from early vegetative growth right through the flowering period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorks in coco, soil and hydroponics\u003c\/strong\u003e alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Full Reservoir the Plant Cannot Actually Reach\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn EC meter tells you what is dissolved in the tank; it does not tell you what the plant can absorb. Mineral ions bind to the medium, react with each other and fall out of solution, so a feed mixed exactly to a chart can still deliver less than it should — and the symptom is \u003cstrong\u003epoor nutrient uptake\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eslow growth\u003c\/strong\u003e in a plant whose reservoir looks correct on paper. Humic and fulvic acids close that gap by holding the ions in a chelated form the root can take through the membrane, which is why they earn their place alongside a base feed rather than instead of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegetative stage:\u003c\/strong\u003e use through the whole period to improve solubility and uptake as the frame is built\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering stage:\u003c\/strong\u003e carry on, for the calcium and magnesium as much as the acids themselves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoco and soil:\u003c\/strong\u003e the microbial support matters most here — apply to the root zone with the normal feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydroponics:\u003c\/strong\u003e add to the reservoir with the base nutrient and re-check EC afterwards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlongside other additives:\u003c\/strong\u003e compatible with a normal feeding programme; add it to the mixed feed rather than neat to the roots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFollow the Hy-Gen feed chart\u003c\/strong\u003e for rate, and build up rather than starting at full strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e humic and fulvic acid booster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdded elements:\u003c\/strong\u003e calcium, magnesium and potassium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAction:\u003c\/strong\u003e chelates minerals into a plant-available form and supports rhizosphere microbes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedia:\u003c\/strong\u003e cocopeat, soil and hydroponic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStage:\u003c\/strong\u003e all stages, vegetative through flowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hy-Gen","offers":[{"title":"1L","offer_id":53621331099914,"sku":"NUT-HYGE-008-01","price":29.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5L","offer_id":53621333098762,"sku":"NUT-HYGE-008-02","price":118.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"20L","offer_id":53621333131530,"sku":"NUT-HYGE-008-03","price":332.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/hy-gen-humiboosta-1l-1.png?v=1788432600","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/hy-gen-humiboosta","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
