Growth Technology Hydroponic Houseplant Focus is designed for indoor gardeners utilizing soil-free environments, such as LECA, clay pebbles, or water culture systems. It provides a comprehensive, balanced nutrient profile including essential calcium and magnesium to ensure robust plant health where soil-based nutrients are absent. While it is highly effective for hydroponic setups, it requires careful measurement to ensure the correct concentration, as over-fertilization can lead to nutrient salt buildup in stagnant water reservoirs.

This product is formulated specifically for hydroponic and semi-hydro substrates. It is not recommended for traditional soil as the nutrient delivery system is optimized for inert media.
It is generally recommended to change your reservoir or perform a full flush every 2-4 weeks to prevent salt buildup and maintain nutrient balance.
The product features built-in pH stability, but you should still test your water regularly, as the starting water source can significantly influence the final pH.
Most common houseplants grown hydroponically will benefit, but always check the specific nutrient requirements for sensitive or rare species.
Yes, always follow the recommended dosage on the bottle and adjust based on the specific needs of your plants, starting with a lower dose if you are unsure.
This is likely mineral salt buildup. Flush the system with plain, pH-balanced water and reduce the fertiliser concentration in your next mix.
Check the pH of your water reservoir. If the pH is outside the optimal range for hydroponics, the plants may be unable to absorb the nutrients regardless of their presence.
To begin, ensure your hydroponic system is clean and free of debris. Measure the required amount of fertiliser according to your specific plant's needs and the volume of your reservoir. It is recommended to shake the bottle well before each use to ensure minerals are evenly suspended. When topping up your reservoir, always mix the fertiliser into fresh water before adding it to the system. For care, perform a full reservoir change every 2-4 weeks to prevent the accumulation of residual salts. Keep the container stored in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the mineral components.
