General Hydroponics Ripen 0.5-7-6 | 32oz

Late-Stage Bloom Booster for Increased Flowering and Fruit Production, 32oz

The final one to two weeks before harvest call for a different nutrient emphasis than the rest of the growth cycle, and a standard base feed alone doesn't always give flowering and fruit production the extra push it can use in that home stretch. GH Ripen 0.5-7-6 is a highly concentrated liquid nutrient engineered specifically for that late-stage window, supplying the phosphorus- and potassium-heavy macronutrients most responsible for flower and fruit development.

The 32oz bottle is sized for hobbyist and small-scale indoor growers who want to try Ripen for a flowering cycle or two before committing to a larger container, layering it onto an existing feeding program during the final one-to-two weeks before harvest.

Key Features & Benefits

• 0.5-7-6 nutrient ratio — concentrated phosphorus and potassium to support late-stage flower and fruit development.
• Guaranteed analysis — 0.5% total nitrogen, 7.0% available phosphate (P2O5), 6.0% soluble potash (K2O).
• Promotes increased, abundant flowering — supports greater oil and fragrance production during finishing.
• Highly concentrated liquid formula — designed to be added to an existing nutrient program.
• Built for the final 1-2 weeks — timed specifically for the finishing stage rather than the full growth cycle.

Who Should Use Ripen

This fits growers already running a base nutrient program who want additional finishing-stage support during the last one to two weeks before harvest. It's a supplement to that base program, not a replacement for it.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I start using Ripen?

Use Ripen during the final one to two weeks of the growth cycle, layered onto your existing base nutrient program. Starting earlier than the finishing window isn't necessary — its 0.5-7-6 ratio is formulated specifically for late-stage flower and fruit development rather than general feeding.

Do I still need my regular base nutrients?

Yes — Ripen is a finishing-stage supplement, not a standalone or season-long nutrient. Keep running your base feeding program and add Ripen on top of it during the last one to two weeks before harvest.

What is the nutrient ratio?

Ripen is 0.5-7-6 (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium), with a guaranteed analysis of 0.5% total nitrogen, 7.0% available phosphate, and 6.0% soluble potash. That ratio is concentrated specifically toward the phosphorus and potassium late-stage flowering and fruiting calls for.

What does Ripen help support?

It's formulated to promote increased, abundant flowering with greater oil and fragrance production during the finishing stage. That support layers onto whatever base nutrients are already driving the rest of the plant's development.

Is Ripen a concentrate?

Yes, it's a highly concentrated liquid nutrient, so follow label directions for dilution rather than applying it at full strength. A small amount goes into a full reservoir or watering can rather than a large volume.
