What are cannabis additives and how can you use them?
If you're not getting the desired yield, the flavor of your weed could be better, or the resin production isn't good enough, you might benefit from cannabis additives. These are substances that can help improve growth and harvest quality. In this blog post, we explain what additives are available and how to use them.
What are cannabis additives?
If you've delved into growing cannabis, you know that there are basic nutrients that are important for the growth and support of your plants' health. These are micronutrients, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium, and macronutrients, such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. These are essential substances that plants need to survive. Cannabis additives are supplements that can be added to these basic nutrients. They are not intended to replace them. They complement them and work in conjunction with them. They are designed to support specific plant functions, such as flavor, pest resistance, root development, or bud density. If you want to use additives for cannabis, you can choose specifically those substances that benefit your plant. You can base your choice on the growth stage the plant is in and the results you want to achieve. These additives can help support your cultivation and make it more effective.
What additives are there for cannabis?
You can use various additives to optimize your cultivation. We'll discuss some examples below.
Stimulating root development
A plant with strong roots can absorb more nutrients, making it stronger and healthier. A healthy root system also helps the plant be more resilient to stress, allowing it to better handle things like repotting or environmental changes. If you want to support your cannabis plants in this area, choose an additive specifically developed for this purpose, such as Plagron Power Roots. This contains a mix of organic substances and vitamins that promote healthy root growth.
Improving immunity
If you use additives that improve plant resistance, you help reduce the risk of diseases. Plants receive more substances that support their resistance. The additives often contain beneficial microbes, amino acids, and silica. An example of an additive that supports immunity is Plagron Vita Race. Use the spray during the vegetative and early flowering stages. These additives promote nutrient uptake and stimulate the production of chlorophyll (leaf green), which is important for photosynthesis.
Better taste and aroma
The aroma and taste can tell you a lot about the quality and health of cannabis plants. If your plants' performance is lacking, you can use an additive designed to stimulate terpene and flavonoid production. Plagron Sugar Royal is an example. It's also a good idea to use this product alongside PK boosters and nutrients during flowering.
Improving the yield
Most cannabis growers want a better harvest. Additives have also been introduced for this purpose. These usually contain extra potassium and phosphorus, which stimulate bud development. They are also rich in carbohydrates and enzymes, which provide more energy and promote the absorption of nutrients support.
How can you use additives?
To get the most out of these cannabis additives, it's important to use them at the right time. It's best to coordinate the use of these products with the growth phase your plants are in.
During the vegetative phase, your plants are busy developing a strong root system and growing. Therefore, you can use additives that support root growth during this phase, such as Plagron Power Roots. Products containing silica, which stimulates the development of strong stems and helps protect against pests, are also a good option. That's why Plagron Vita Race is also a good choice. This spray supports the vitality of the plants and stimulates photosynthesis.
When your plants enter the flowering phase, they switch from growth to bud production. In this phase, you use PK boosters, which provide extra phosphorus and potassium.ren, substances that are important for full and large buds. Use products that boost terpene formation, such as Plagron Sugar Royal. Additional enzymes, which support the function of the root system, can also be useful, as they can help prevent blockages in nutrient transport.
Are additional additives necessary?
After reading this information, you may wonder if these additives are really necessary for growing cannabis. Plenty of growers achieve good results while using nothing more than basic nutrients. Therefore, using special additives isn't always necessary.
But are you noticing a disappointing harvest, are you dissatisfied with the quality of your buds, or are your plants often affected by pests? Then it might be a good idea to try one or more of these cannabis additives.
Additives can help improve your growing results under the right conditions, but they are not always necessary or suitable for every situation. Always check local laws and regulations, thoroughly research their use, and make a well-considered choice.
