{"product_id":"med-tek-rhizo-plus","title":"Med-Tek Rhizo Plus","description":"\u003cp\u003eA crop's first few weeks are mostly about what happens below the surface. Med-Tek Rhizo Plus is a kelp-based root stimulant for that stretch, used to get seedlings, cuttings and young plants established early in the crop cycle. It's rich in the plant hormone auxin and also carries biostimulants and plant immune system boosters, and the formula is aimed at two things: a vigorous root system below the surface, and healthy vegetative growth as the plant moves on from establishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKelp is the heart of Rhizo Plus. Seaweed extracts are a well-established natural source of plant growth regulators, and here the kelp is what supplies the auxin. Auxin is the hormone a plant uses to start new roots and to branch the ones it already has. Every new root tip adds surface area for taking up water and nutrients. That's why an auxin-rich additive like Rhizo Plus does its best work while the plant is still building its foundations, and a strong root zone at that stage supports everything that follows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe biostimulants in Rhizo Plus act on the plant's metabolic processes, improving nutrient uptake and speeding growth. They pair with the kelp: the extra root mass the auxin builds gets put to work instead of simply sitting in the medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYoung plants are at their most vulnerable in those early weeks, and stress, pests and disease can set them back before they've properly got going. Rhizo Plus was built with that in mind. Its third component is a set of plant immune system boosters, there to strengthen the plant's own defences and help it resist stress, pests and disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's not fussy about where it goes either! Rhizo Plus suits soil and hydroponic systems, indoors or out, across vegetables, fruits, herbs and ornamentals. The 1 L bottle suits a home garden or a single tent, and the larger containers suit growers running bigger or repeated crops. It's made in Australia and formulated for Australian growing conditions and methods. It belongs to the Med-Tek nutrient range developed by G.Low, who spent over two decades researching mineral nutrition, including tissue testing with US laboratories and side-by-side growth trials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003ePest and disease claims are the manufacturer's own.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MED-TEK","offers":[{"title":"1 L","offer_id":67551602802846,"sku":"PLACEHOLDER910184","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 L","offer_id":67551602835614,"sku":"PLACEHOLDER910185","price":274.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20 L","offer_id":67551602868382,"sku":"PLACEHOLDER910186","price":739.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/5261\/6094\/files\/Med-Tek_Rhizo_Plus_1L.png?v=1792707480","url":"https:\/\/www.hydrooasis.com.au\/products\/med-tek-rhizo-plus","provider":"Hydro Oasis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
