The best starting point for hydroponic novices

Are you considering stepping into the world of hydroponics? This kit offers everything you need to kickstart your journey into small-scale hydroponic gardening. Included are 250mL bottles of both Ag-Grow Grow and Bloom nutrients, along with 2L of premium-quality coco coir and perlite mix.

Starting couldn't be simpler. Follow along as Tammy from Gardening Australia demonstrates how to transition store-bought plants from soil to hydroponic growing media.

Benefits of Coco/Perlite Mix:

• Excellent Aeration: The porous structure of perlite promotes optimal aeration within the growing medium, ensuring healthy root development.
• Lightweight and Durable: Coco coir and perlite mix provides a lightweight and durable alternative to traditional soil, making it easy to work with and transport.
• Thermal Insulation: This mix helps to maintain stable temperatures within the root zone, reducing water evaporation and promoting efficient nutrient uptake.
• pH Neutral: Coco coir has a near-neutral pH, providing an ideal environment for a wide range of plants without the need for extensive pH adjustments.
• Good Water Drainage and Absorption: The combination of coco coir and perlite ensures excellent water drainage to prevent root rot while also retaining moisture to keep plants hydrated.
• Eco-Friendly: Coco coir is a renewable resource, making it an environmentally friendly choice for hydroponic gardening.

Ag-Grow Grow and Bloom Single Part Nutrient:

General purpose hydroponic nutrient suitable for all flowering plants. Can also be used for plants grown in soil or coco.
Shake bottle well before use. Add Ag-Grow to water at recommended strength and stir thoroughly. Water by hand when media becomes mostly dry in the pot.

• Quarter Strength: 2.5ml per Litre. For delicate flowering plants such as orchids, roses, African violets, bulbs, flowering patio plants, cactus etc.
• Half Strength: 5ml per Litre. For all mature flowering plants such as tomatoes, capsicums, cucumbers, strawberries, beans, peas, citrus, stone fruit, bananas, paw paw etc. in soil and hydroponic media.
• Full Strength: 10mls per Litre. For best results on all mature fruiting and flowering plants (as listed directly above) in expanded clay, perlite, vermiculite, coco peat, rockwool and soil. However, nutrient strength and pH must be monitored daily, as overfeeding and toxicity may occur.
