Description
Dr. Hydro Venus Protection Spray is tailored for use on dioecious plant species, which exhibit distinct male and female individuals.
- Dioecious plants typically produce either female or male flowers, but under suboptimal conditions, they may become hermaphroditic, generating both male and female flowers.
- In crops where female flowers are the desired yield, the presence of male flowers poses a significant challenge, as they release pollen that can fertilize the female flowers, leading to decreased crop quality and yield due to seed production.
- Utilizing the biostimulants present in Dr. Hydro Venus can help maintain optimal conditions for dioecious plants, safeguarding your crop from substantial losses.

How to use
Spray Venus on the plants following the instructions supplied. It is for crops where the female flowers are the harvest: stress can make plants produce male flowers too, and their pollen leads to seeds and a smaller crop.
Keeping the grow room stable matters as well, so see our guide to airflow, temperature and humidity.
Questions
What is a dioecious plant?
A species with separate male and female plants. Under poor conditions they can turn hermaphrodite and produce both kinds of flower.
Why are male flowers a problem?
Their pollen fertilises the female flowers, which then set seed, lowering the quality and size of the crop.
