Description
Intense Foundation is a Root stimulant primarily for promoting a healthy and rapidly developing root system early in the plant's life - this then facilitates a productive flowering period where applicable.
As Foundation stimulates the micro-organisms within the growing medium Intense suggest using Foundation at a reduced rate throughout flowering to maintain a healthy and effective root system. We would suggest using it up until at least a week into flower.
Dilute at a rate of 2 to 5ml/l (made easy by the handy integrated measure built into the 1l and 5l bottles).
Available in 1l, 5l, and 10l sizes.

How to use
Add Foundation at 2 to 5 ml per litre while the young plants are building their roots. Because it also feeds the micro-organisms in the growing medium, Intense suggest carrying on at a lower rate through flowering; we would keep it going until at least a week into flowering.
It pairs with Intense base feeds such as Intense Coco and Intense Hydro; more root products are in root products.
