General Hydroponics RapidStart 1-0.5-1 - 6 Gal

Faster Root Establishment for Young Plants - 6 Gal

Slow rooting holds back everything that follows. This rooting nutrient supports fast, dense root initiation and helps build a healthy root structure, so young plants establish quickly and vegetative growth can take off. Early root development sets the pace for the rest of the crop.

The 6 Gal container suits growers who propagate on a regular schedule, whether in a home hydroponic setup or a larger indoor operation. It saves frequent reordering of small bottles and keeps a steady supply on hand for each new round of cuttings and seedlings.
