{"product_id":"cyco-grow-a-b","title":"CYCO Grow A+B","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe vegetative weeks are when a plant builds the leaves, stems and roots it'll later flower on, and it eats hard while it does. CYCO Grow A+B is the two-part base nutrient for that growth stage in the CYCO Platinum Series, supplying potassium, magnesium, phosphate, calcium and nitrogen between its two parts. CYCO describe the feed as balanced and highly bioavailable, easily absorbed and put to use, and they say it works with all additives. That lets it sit at the centre of your feed programme without limiting what goes in alongside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe split between the two parts is deliberate. Part A is a brown liquid built on calcium nitrate. Part B is clear and combines potassium nitrate, potassium phosphate and magnesium nitrate. Calcium and phosphate are kept apart because at concentrate strength they can combine into insoluble solids, such as calcium phosphate, that drop out of solution and are lost to the plant. Once both parts are diluted in your tank, the two can share the solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll of the nitrogen in both parts is in nitrate form, which plants take up readily from a nutrient solution. The calcium in Part A goes into building cell walls, so new growth comes through strong. And the magnesium in Part B earns its place! It helps activate many of the plant enzymes needed for growth, and it sits at the centre of every chlorophyll molecule, so leaves need it to stay green and keep photosynthesising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrow A+B runs through CYCO's feed charts for all systems and media, with a separate Deep Water Culture chart at gentler rates. The Basic chart keeps things simple and economical. The Advanced programme is for when you want to fine-tune each stage, and it brings in Grow XL as an optional growth additive. Both the Basic and Advanced charts are written for reverse-osmosis water. Harder mains or tank water already carries dissolved minerals of its own, which is why it calls for a lighter base dose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CYCO","offers":[{"title":"1 L","offer_id":48083201818782,"sku":"0501415656011","price":23.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 L","offer_id":48083201851550,"sku":"051405914040","price":59.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20 L","offer_id":48083201884318,"sku":"PLACEHOLDER555","price":179.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/5261\/6094\/files\/CYCO_Grow_A_B_1L.png?v=1791645995","url":"https:\/\/www.hydrooasis.com.au\/products\/cyco-grow-a-b","provider":"Hydro Oasis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
