GHE Ripen GHE Ripen is great for all growing methods. Hydroponics and soil Late flowering nutrient Ripen is a comprehensive plant nutrient used during the late flowering stage of the plant. It is specifically designed to speed up and enhance the ripening process, while increasing the content inactive principles of medicinal, aromatic and culinary plants.
This type of formulation is referred to, in the greenhouse industry, as a 'forcing solution'. Ripen is a mix of refined mineral salts and buffers, formulated by our laboratories with the greatest precision. At this stage, accuracy is of the utmost importance.
At the end of the plant's life it is generally more fragile and the assimilation process is greatly reduced when compared with the vegetative phase. GHE Ripen acts at different levels. It gives the plant a strong signal that it is coming to the end of its life.
The plant reacts by speeding the ripening process, in a last effort to spread its genes. It forces the plant to reinforce its defenses and thus increase its active principles. It brings to the plant all the mineral salts they need, in a form easy to assimilate.
In case of a previous accumulation of nitrate or micro elements, it helps metabolise these residues, which will improve taste of the crop. Outdoors, it enables you to quickly harvest a crop, before it is spoiled by a cold and humid weather. Indoors it helps you harmonise the end of the cycle by speeding up the ripening of the slowest plants.
In case of severe infestation of fungi or insects, it allows you to accelerate the natural cycle and get something out of the crop otherwise completely lost. Application: The last 10 days of flowering, dilute Ripen in water with adjusted pH (between 5.5 and 6.5) In Hydroponics: 4-5ml/L - EC = 1.8 - 2.2In Soil: same concentration, every second watering. Ripen is an acid, it will lower the pH of your solution.Pour it in the water before adjusting your pH level.
