Cutting Edge Sour-Dee SP™ 0-0-24 Bloom Supplement — 5lb

Cutting Edge Sour-Dee SP™ 0-0-24 — 5lb

Cutting Edge Sour-Dee SP™ 0-0-24 is a soluble powder bloom supplement formulated to push flowering crops toward complex citrus, tropical, and fuel-forward aromatic expressions while delivering the high-potassium nutrition required for heavy floral development. Like Sugaree SP™, it combines 24% soluble potash (K₂O) with 8.5% sulfur and a finely micronized carbohydrate source (24% sucrose from evaporated cane juice and molasses) — but is specifically calibrated to guide the plant's secondary metabolite synthesis toward the sharper, more pungent aromatic compounds associated with citrus and tropical cultivar expressions.

The potassium-sulfur synergy during flowering supports both the carbohydrate transport that feeds developing flowers and the sulfur-containing compound biosynthesis that generates the thiols, terpenes, and essential oils responsible for complex, multi-layered aromatic profiles. The micronized carbohydrate microbe-food component supports beneficial soil bacteria and fungi throughout the production cycle, maintaining the rhizosphere ecology that promotes nutrient cycling and structural soil health. Fully compatible with all Cutting Edge Solutions® products and other commercial nutrient programs for seamless integration into existing feeding schedules.

Key Features & Benefits

• 24% Soluble Potash (K₂O) — High-potassium loading supports carbohydrate translocation and energy supply to rapidly developing floral sites during the bloom phase.
• 8.5% Sulfur — Drives the biosynthesis of sulfur-containing aromatic compounds, thiols, and terpenes that form the foundation of citrus and fuel-forward flavor expressions.
• Micronized Carbohydrate Source (24%) — Finely micronized sucrose from evaporated cane juice and molasses feeds beneficial root zone microbes, improving soil ecosystem vitality and long-term growing medium health.
• Amplifies Citrus, Tropical & Fuel Profiles — Targeted K-S nutrition during flowering supports the development of complex, sharp aromatic expressions in cultivars predisposed to these flavor profiles.
• Strengthens Plant Metabolism — Potassium-driven stomatal regulation, osmotic balance, and enzyme activation maintain plant metabolic efficiency through high-demand late flowering stages.

Who Should Use This

Growers cultivating citrus-forward, tropical, or fuel-dominant flowering crops looking to maximize the aromatic expression of their cultivar's genetic potential use Sour-Dee SP™ as a targeted bloom-phase potassium supplement. It is most impactful in the mid-to-late flowering phase when aromatic compound synthesis is most active and potassium demand for ripening is at its peak. Equally effective in living soil, amended coco, and recirculating hydroponic systems.

Compatibility

Dissolve in water before adding to reservoir or soil drench. Compatible with all Cutting Edge Solutions® products and other commercial nutrient programs. Derived from potassium sulfate and sucrose. Available in 5lb.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Sour-Dee SP and Sugaree SP?

Both are 0-0-24 potassium-sulfur powders with micronized carbohydrates, designed to guide different aroma expressions. Sour-Dee SP™ targets citrus, tropical, and fuel profiles; Sugaree SP™ targets sweet and berry-like profiles. Select based on your cultivar's target aromatic expression.

Can I use Sour-Dee SP alongside Sugaree SP in the same feeding program?

Yes — growers blending multiple aromatic supplement products in their flowering programs can use both. Adjust application rates of each to achieve the desired aromatic balance for your specific cultivar.

When should I introduce Sour-Dee SP into my feeding schedule?

Begin using Sour-Dee SP™ at the onset of flowering and continue through late bloom and pre-harvest. For foliar application, it is most effective during vegetative and transition phases for enzyme and metabolic support.

Does the molasses in the formula cause any issues in hydroponic systems?

The carbohydrate content is micronized and finely dispersed at low concentration in the dissolved solution. At recommended rates, it does not typically cause reservoir issues in well-maintained systems. Maintain good reservoir hygiene and lightproofing to minimize any microbial or algae risk.
