The brightest lights usually lead to the best results from your plants but carrying out grow room checks when you have one or more of your systems switched on can be an absolute nightmare! Due to the sheer intensity of HID lamps you’ll often find yourself coming away blurry eyed… unless of course they are protected by LUMii Grow Room Lenses!
How does this cool little accessory work then? Well basically it acts like a barrier to the red/orange spectrum of light – that’s the part known for normally increasing the difficulty of examining your plants and thus identifying the signs of deficiencies and pests. Wearing the lenses safeguards your eyes and lets you see the true colour of foliage, fruits and flowers as if being viewed under natural light, helping you to improve the speed and accuracy of grow room tasks. Indeed the product’s ability to reduce the impact of glare, UV rays and infrared is a very important benefit too, since these factors can cause eye-related problems over time.
LUMii Grow Room Lenses are very highly recommended and also prove to be quite versatile, similarly doing a good job of protecting your eyes during the use of any hazardous chemicals associated with hydroponics. Without doubt an essential grow room purchase that every grower should own!

MAMMOTH P increase phosphorus uptake MAMMOTH P is the first organically derived microbial inoculant for growing plants that maximizes phosphorus and micro-nutrient cycling to maximize bud growth, increase yield, and enhance plant health. MAMMOTH P was developed by Growcentia’s founders at Colorado State University using nextgeneration technology. MAMMOTH P has been tested extensively by Colorado growers and independent labs have proven to increase plant growth. All production is done at our facility in Fort Collins Colorado to maintain the highest level of quality control. This beneficial bacterial formula works great in soil, soilless, and hydroponic systems. Using MAMMOTH P in hydroponic systems is an excellent way to introduce the organic benefits of soil microbial nutrients without sacrificing water quality. MAMMOTH P was engineered to supplement any fertilizer program. MAMMOTH P is specifically designed to increase phosphorus availability during the bloom phase, and should be used as a supplement to your regular fertilization program. Application during clone and vegetative phase will boost effectiveness. MAMMOTH P has a near neutral pH formulation and runs clean in any system. Our bacteria act as micro-bioreactors, constantly producing a more diverse suite of enzymes that enhance nutrient availability than the leading enzyme-specific products. Effective in All Media.
The date on the bottle is manufacture date. The product has a 2 year shelf life

THE ULTIMATE PEST PREVENTION FOR ALL PLANTS
General Directions
The TRIPLE P (Plant Promotion Products) range is formulated for the protection of professional continuous plant growth programmes in conjunction with Integrated Pest Management (IPM), Integrated Crop Management (ICM) and biological control programmes. It is designed to deliver effective control of aphids, whiteflies, thrips and spider mites and good control of mealybugs, leafhoppers, psyllids, suckers and scale insects when applied as a contact penetration foliar spray. It also provides effective control of common root rot diseases, spread via zoosporic fungi such as pythium and phytophthora, when added to nutrient solution or irrigation water.
Question: What is SKRAM?
Answer: SKRAM is an emulsion in water which contains medium chain fatty acid nonionic surfactants derived from natural biotransformation of renewable plant-based oils (olive oil, soybean oil, yeast derived oil, and microalgae fatty acid methyl esters). SKRAM is designed to deliver effective control of whitefly, aphids and mites on protected crops such as strawberry, tomato and cucumber. SKRAM is exempt from maximum residue limit (MRL) testing and has a zero-day preharvest interval for all crops. It has minimal impact on bees, pollinators and beneficial arthropods and can be used in organic crops.
On pest contact it provides effective control of aphids, whiteflies, thrips and spider mites and good control of mealybugs, leafhoppers, psyllids, suckers and scale insects. It is effective against all insect and spider mite life stages, particularly against motile forms.
Question: How does SKRAM work?
Answer: SKRAM is active following contact with the pest body. It is active against all stages of insects and mites: juveniles and adults, as well as eggs. SKRAM contains medium chain fatty acid nonionic surfactant active substances. These are effective as the lipophilic carbon chains penetrate the external body wall of the target pest. The unsaturated part of the carbon chains interacts with multiple vital metabolic processes, which interfere with pest feeding activity (antifeedant effect), resulting in plant protection from predation. The first visible effect is the immediate cessation of feeding activity. This results in reduced feeding, egg laying and egg viability.
SKRAM is effective at destroying zoospore plasma membranes, thus reducing the ability of the spores to move in nutrient streams and infect plants. SKRAM disrupts zoospores released by active disease outbreaks and prevent these from infecting new plants. For this to be effective, SKRAM needs to be continually maintained in the nutrient solution. SKRAM also has an important role to play in general system and indoor garden hygiene. Since surfactants can not only assist in removal of biofilms and general cleaning, but also in the destruction of disease zoospores, they are a great tool for prevention of pathogen problems.
The addition of SKRAM to hydroponic nutrient solutions significantly increases crop yields and has been found to increase water use efficiency by making root membranes more permeable, thus allowing more nutrients to be absorbed by the roots. SKRAM can also act as a synergist with plant hormones giving further growth boosting effects.
