TRIAL SUMMARY

  • Spray-N-Grow increased yield on harvests 1-7 62.46%
  • Spray-N-Grow increased yield on harvests 8-10 21.83%
  • Spray-N-Grow increased the number of pods 43.08%
  • Spray-N-Grow increased the root mass 74.07%

Spray-N-Grow advanced flowering over the control by several days, hence there was a significant increase in both early and later harvests

Comments by Dr. Morgan:

“Foliar fertilization with the Spray-N-Grow micronutrient complex can result in not only advanced flowering and greater flower and hence pod numbers, but also an increase in yields within the crop – an important consideration for any commercial hydroponic producer.”
