{"product_id":"aptus-finaleboost-1","title":"Aptus Finaleboost","description":"\u003cp\u003eAptus Finaleboost is a concentrated maturation booster for the back half of flowering, when a crop has finished stretching and the work shifts to filling, ripening and building density. It is a potassium and sulphur finisher with no phosphorus in it at all, and that absence is the design rather than an oversight: phosphorus does its work early, shooting and setting flowers, while potassium is the element that matures, densifies and ripens them later on. Separating the two gives a grower control over when each one arrives, instead of running a blended PK product that pushes both at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe formula is organo-mineral, a blend of organic and mineral inputs rather than one or the other. Its organic fraction is hydrolysed proteins, chelated with potassium and sulphur so they are easier for the plant to take up. Aptus credit that higher uptake with increased oil and terpene production, and put the gain in dry weight down to the extra essential oils, sugars and amino acids a maturing flower lays down. Because there is no phosphorus in the bottle, the potassium level can be dialled up or down to suit the metabolism of particular genetics without dragging phosphorus along with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe full Aptus programme is not a prerequisite. Aptus report that three to four weeks of Finaleboost at the end of any regime changes the quality and weight of the finished flower, and their advice to a grower already running a PK booster is to drop it rather than stack the two, since the phosphorus half is not needed by then. The window is meant to move with the crop as well: weeks six through eight of flowering is the minimum the Australian catalogue prints, and stretching or trimming that to match a strain's total flowering time is part of how the product is used. Outside of flower it can be mixed through a substrate such as perlite before planting, which heads off potassium deficiency once seedlings or cuttings go into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finaleboost can generate toxic gases in contact with inorganic sulphide or strong reducing agents. Keep the concentrate in its original container, tightly closed, and do not store diluted product.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aptus","offers":[{"title":"250 ml","offer_id":67551600509086,"sku":"754697361981","price":53.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"500 ml","offer_id":67551600541854,"sku":"PLACEHOLDER910128","price":80.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 L","offer_id":67551600574622,"sku":"670541797112","price":143.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 L","offer_id":67551600607390,"sku":"670541797129","price":647.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20 L","offer_id":67551600640158,"sku":"030955475431","price":1754.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/5261\/6094\/files\/Aptus_FinaleBoost_250ml.png?v=1789275830","url":"https:\/\/www.hydrooasis.com.au\/products\/aptus-finaleboost-1","provider":"Hydro Oasis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
