Description
The Elite Micro by Flying Skull is a fundamental component of the Flying Skull plant food line, providing a highly efficient, versatile, and soluble nutrient solution for various plant-growing systems. Specifically designed for professional and hobbyist growers, Elite Micro plays a vital role in optimizing plant health, growth, and productivity. Its cutting-edge formulation reduces nutrient use while ensuring superior plant performance.
Key Features of Elite Micro
Highly Soluble Formula for Enhanced Efficiency
Elite Micro delivers concentrated nutrients in a highly soluble form, reducing the required EC/PPM levels compared to competitors. This means you use 2-3 times less product while achieving exceptional plant growth and yields.
Perfect for Hydroponic Systems
Elite Micro is non-organic and particulate-free, making it ideal for hydroponic systems such as Deep Water Culture. Its clean formula minimizes risks of inanimate slime formation, which is a leading cause of plant death and system failure in hydroponics.
Part of a Dynamic Trio
Elite Micro forms the foundation of the Flying Skull plant food line alongside Elite Grow and Elite Bloom. These three products work synergistically to provide tailored nutrient solutions throughout the plant's life cycle, from root establishment to blooming phases.
How to Use Elite Micro
Initial Planting Phase
In the first week or two, use a balanced mix of Elite Micro, Elite Grow, and Elite Bloom to support root development. Mix 1 part of each to achieve 50 ppm for every inch of plant height. This method promotes robust root systems for vigorous growth.
Vegetative Growth Stage
After the initial phase, remove Elite Bloom from the mix. Use only Elite Micro and Elite Grow to focus on above-ground growth. The precise nutrient balance ensures lush foliage and strong plant structure.
Transition to Bloom
Reintroduce Elite Bloom a week before initiating the 12/12 lighting cycle to enhance budding and blooming. Elite Micro’s formula supports potassium and phosphorus needs, vital for flower development.
Late Bloom and Harvest
In the final week before harvest, eliminate Elite Micro, Grow, and Bloom from the regimen. Switch to Z7 and Essential Flora Extract to ensure optimal nutrient uptake and flavor development.
Key Benefits
Customizable Nutrition
The flexibility to adjust the ratios of Elite Micro, Grow, and Bloom allows growers to tailor nutrient delivery to specific plant needs, reducing the need for additional products and costs.
Ultra-Strength Formula
Elite Micro is ultra-potent, requiring minimal dosages to achieve optimal results. For instance, 1 lb of Elite Micro can produce up to 220 gallons of nutrient solution for sun-exposed plants or double that for shade plants.
Enhanced Nutrient Absorption
Flying Skull's ECWAM™ nutrient administration method ensures even distribution and maximum uptake of essential nutrients, promoting consistent growth.
Safe and Effective
By preventing overfeeding and addressing nutrient deficiencies effectively, Elite Micro maintains plant health without causing stress or damage.
General Feeding Directions
- Hydroponics & Soilless Media: Maintain 300-400 ppm through vegetation and 450-600 ppm during bloom.
- Soil: Target 400-500 ppm for robust growth.
- Lettuce/Herbs (Shade Plants): Use lower strength, between 200-300 ppm.
For all setups, start with the lowest recommended nutrient strength and increase only if plants show signs of deficiency, such as light coloring, yellowing leaves, or purple stems.
Mixing Instructions
- Add Elite Micro, Grow, and Bloom separately to the nutrient tank.
- Adjust pH levels according to the specific growing medium:
- Soil: 6.4-7.0
- Hydroponics: 5.8-6.5
- Monitor for signs of overfeeding, such as leaf tip burn or necrosis, and adjust nutrient strength accordingly.
Recommendations
For growers seeking to maximize plant genetic potential, consider incorporating Z7, Essential Flora Extract, and On Schedule into your routine. While optional, these products significantly enhance plant performance, flavor, and yield. Adding Flying Skull's Ultimate Seaweed Blend (USB) further promotes resilience and growth.
