General Hydroponics FloraMicro - 2.5 Gal

Calcium and Micronutrient Base for Your Feed Recipe - 2.5 Gal

Mixing a feed from separate parts lets you adjust it to each growth stage, but you need a solid base to build on. FloraMicro is the base of the 3-part FloraSeries, supplying nitrogen, calcium and a range of chelated micronutrients. Its guaranteed analysis is 5-0-1, and you pair it with FloraGro and FloraBloom to shift the balance as plants move from vegetative growth to flowering.

The 2.5 Gal container suits growers who feed regularly. It is a sensible step up for a regular indoor grower or a small commercial room that wants to stock enough of the base part to carry through several reservoir changes.
