BioBizz Top Max fuels prolific blooming while enhancing the flavor of herbs and vegetables in your garden. Top Max is perfectly suited for soil but can be used in other growing media as well. Top Max has the threefold purpose of facilitating the uptake of nutrients within the plants, dramatically increasing the actual size and weight of floral clusters, and leaving a sweet smooth taste in the finished product. The extraordinary way Top Max assists in the flow of nutrients is made possible through the use of humic acids.

Humic acid is formed from soil and vegetable deposits that have formed over millions of years. The main source of Humic acid is drawn from a deposit called Leonardite which is the most highly concentrated organic material on the planet. Its source originates entirely from trees and vegetation which grew bloomed and died during the carboniferous period 300 million years ago. Over the ages the vegetation underwent compaction and heating where it slowly carbonized and became coal. This compaction squeezed out the organic acids and saps present in the vegetation and formed a pool on top of the lignite coal bed. This pool dried and aged and eventually formed the Leonardite shale.

Humic Acid as well as increasing nutrient uptake, assists in drought tolerance and seed germination. It increases the microbial activity in the soil promoting and stimulating root health and development. Humic Acid increases the availability of nutrients that are already present and will naturally aerate the substrate from the inside. It also assists in lowering the pH of the soil and flushes high salt residue out of the root zone. Floral growth and health is assisted by the use of fulvic acid which plays an integral role in natural plant life. It is reclaimed from certain exceptionally rich sources of humate deposits from deep within the earth.

Fulvic acid has an electrically charged nature that attracts to itself plant nutrients and minerals from both the microbiological soil base and applied organic fertilizers such as Bio-Bloom. Being a naturally charged particle working in combination with humic acid it penetrates the flower cell walls where it recharges and energizes old and dying cells, whilst stimulating new cell life. Though the ability to convert decaying plant matter into new life it also protects against mold and rot on the surface of the flower heads.

Fulvic acid is so powerful a conductor it is able to hold 60 or more trace elements and minerals in a single molecule, all of which are delivered directly to the flower. This ensures that when feeding plants liquid feeds such as Bio-Bloom and Bio-Grow, all the nutrients are made usable and readily available to the plants exactly where required. In the agricultural soils of the world available sources of fulvic acid have long been used up through thousands of years of farming. The absence of naturally occurring fulvates combined with the recent damaging of humus based soils through intensive chemical farming methods means that food crops as consumed by most of us are lacking in many nutrients and beneficial elements.”

Although  BioBizz products for a recirculating hydroponic system is not recommended, some customers find success using it in hydroponics.  If you want to use BioBizz products with your hydroponics system it is best with a drain to waste system.

All BioBizz products are certified organic by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI).

Check out our recent blog post if you aren’t familliar with Agricultural Organics Bloom or the Yellow Bottle Line as it is referred to around igrowhydro.com. That article will give you a fast run down of all of the Bloom products.

Now one thing I didn’t get wrong is the coupon for our Yellow Bottle Line by Agricultural Organics Nutrients. Since we love this line so much – I’m extending the coupon code 10YELLOW until Friday. For the whole week, take an extra 10% off the Yellow Bottle line of hydroponic nutrients. You have to use the coupon code 10YELLOW at checkout to get the discount.

In case you aren’t familiar with the Yellow Bottle Line, start by checking out Agricultural Organics Nutrient – Final Bloom, a finishing product for use in the last two weeks (before clearing solutions) to pump up flower weight and volume to gain extra yield. Formulated from the organic equivalent to plant steroids, Triacontanol and rare earth minerals, Final Bloom stimulates a massive final bloom of developing flowers.

Triacontanol is an alcohol based sugar found in high concentrations in alfalfa. It has a multi faceted effect stimulating the natural production of plant hormones involved in flowering and increases the sensitivity of plant hormones. Specific receptors involved in signaling the presence of organic plant steroid magnifying its effect whilst keeping the actual usage level incredibly low. Combine this with nano levels of two rare earth minerals that magnify the effect of Triacontanol and the three interacting primary ingredients in Final Bloom work together to provide phenomenal results by using all natural materials and no plant growth regulators (PGRs)

Final Bloom is highly concentrated at a 1:1,000 dilution ratio, the 1L/1.03qt bottle makes 1,000L/200G and the 2.5L/2.64qt bottle makes 2,500L/500G.

For the next 48 hours – use coupon code ADVANCED and get 10% Off ALL Advanced Nutrients including all Advanced Nutrients Organic products. That’s right – 10% off but only until July 9, 2009 at 11:59 PST.**

In case you are not familiar with the Advanced Nutrients 3 part series, the three parts are bloom, grow and micro. Bloom (0-5-4) provides nutrients for plants in the foliar and blooming stages, while Advanced Nutrients Grow (2-1-6) provides nutrients for the vegetative stages.

Finally the specialized Micro nutrient (5-0-1) is for plants in structural, foliar and blooming. Avoid disaster and always  add Micro to your reservoir first, then Bloom then Grow

**We are testing out a new system – if for some reason you do not get the discount – please put the code in the special instructions box and we will make sure your discount gets applied.

We cannot apply price adjustments to previously purchased merchandise and we cannot apply coupon codes or discounts after the order has been placed. Only one coupon can be used per purchase.  Coupons are valid on igrowhydro.com only. Thank you for your understanding.
