Small Flowers

Small flowers are underdeveloped buds that have a soft and sponge-like texture. Usually caused by poor genetics, lighting, or inadequate nutrition, small flowers are annoying to trim and possess little to no dry weight. To cultivate large, fully developed buds, consider including a bloom-enhancing supplement in your regular feeding routine.

Caused By:

Weak Genetics
Inadequate Nutrients
High/Low Temperature & Humidity Differential
Insufficient Lighting
Plant Stress

Solution: Massive, Bud Booster, or PK Spike

Use one of GreenPlanet’s premier bloom enhancers to turn small flowers into large, trichome-covered buds during the blooming stage. Massive and PK Spike are liquid flowering additives formulated with concentrated amounts of phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), two elements that are essential for fruiting and flowering plants. Bud Booster is a dry bloom enhancing supplement designed to encourage vigorous buds during the flowering stage.

How They Work

During the periods of early, late, and middle flower, plants need greater quantities of phosphorus and potassium to help support the development of fully established and sugar-coated buds. GreenPlanet Nutrients’ bloom boosters like Massive, Bud Booster, and PK Spike ensure that plants receive concentrated amounts of (P) and (K) during the blooming stage.

Use and Concentration

Massive, Bud Booster, and PK Spike all have different concentration rates. Below are the mixing ratios for each bloom enhancing supplement:

Massive Bloom Formulation: 5 ml/L (20 ml/G)
Bud Booster: 6 gm/20 L (1 TSP/ 5 G)
PK Spike: 0.5 – 1 ml/L (2 – 4 ml/G)
