Plagron Power Buds 100 ml – flowering and bud formation biostimulant
Power Buds by Plagron is a liquid additive for the flowering phase, classified as an EU fertilising product in the category of non-microbial plant biostimulants (PFC 6(B)). Unlike a conventional fertiliser, it is not primarily intended to supply nutrients, but to stimulate the plant’s natural processes: it increases the number of flower buds formed and accelerates the start of flowering.
Its action is based on two mechanisms. First, the product triggers a stress response in the plant, encouraging it to reproduce and therefore produce more flowers. Second, it supplies a substance that the plant produces itself when transitioning from the growth phase to flowering – as a result, flowering begins earlier and proceeds more intensively.
According to the manufacturer, Power Buds contains a specialised molecule that supports amino acid synthesis and does not contain growth regulators (PGRs). The 100 ml bottle is enough to prepare at least 100 litres of solution.
Key features
- increases the number of flower buds
- accelerates the start of flowering
- certified biostimulant (EU: PFC 6B – non-microbial plant biostimulant)
- used from the transition from the growth phase to flowering until the end of flowering
- can be combined with Green Sensation and other additives
- highly efficient: maximum 1 ml per 1 litre of water
Composition
The manufacturer’s technical data sheet states: total nitrogen (N) 0.4%, entirely organic, and water-soluble potassium oxide (K2O) 1.8%. The concentrate is a clear, colourless or pale yellow, odourless liquid with a pH of 4.5 and a density of 1.05 g/ml.
Application
Power Buds supports plants from the moment they begin forming flower buds until the end of flowering – it is useful for flowering and fruiting plants: ornamental and balcony plants, as well as those grown for their own fruit or vegetables, both indoors and in a greenhouse. It can be used in hydroponics and in peat-based substrates; in the manufacturer’s tests, it produced the best results in hydroponic cultivation. It combines well with Green Sensation. When used together with Sugar Royal, the solution should be used immediately, as Sugar Royal is not suitable for systems in which the same nutrient solution remains in use for longer than 24 hours.
Directions for use
- Shake the bottle well before use.
- Add a maximum of 1 ml of Power Buds per 1 litre of water (1:1000).
- Use from the first week of the flowering phase, when the plant transitions from growth to flowering.
- For the best results, apply until the end of the flowering phase.
The manufacturer developed the label recommendations for chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum indicum).
