Cutting Edge Solutions Grow 2-1-6 Base Nutrient
Cutting Edge Solutions Grow 2-1-6 is the vegetative-growth component of the Cutting Edge Solutions 3-Part Base nutrient system. Formulated with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, it supports vigorous foliage, root development, photosynthesis, energy transfer, and strong plant structure during vegetative growth and transition.
Grow 2-1-6 is designed for use with Micro 6-0-0 and Bloom 0-6-5. By adjusting the proportions of all three components, growers can tailor plant nutrition as crops progress through different stages of development. Grow is reduced during transition and discontinued once plants enter full flowering.
Benefits of Grow 2-1-6
- Vegetative nutrition: Supplies the primary nutrients needed for healthy leaves, stems, and roots.
- Photosynthesis support: Provides potassium to support water regulation, energy movement, and photosynthetic activity.
- Root and structural development: Supplies phosphorus and nitrogen needed during active early growth.
- Adjustable feeding: Works as part of a flexible 3-part formula that can be modified throughout the plant life cycle.
- Transition support: Continues feeding plants at a reduced rate as they move from vegetative growth into flowering.
- Broad compatibility: Suitable for hydroponics, coco coir, deep-water culture, soil, soilless media, and fertigation systems.
Guaranteed Analysis
- Total Nitrogen (N): 2.0%
- Available Phosphate (P₂O₅): 1.0%
- Soluble Potash (K₂O): 6.0%
Nitrogen breakdown: 0.2% ammoniacal nitrogen and 1.8% nitrate nitrogen.
Derived from: Ammonium sulfate, potassium nitrate, magnesium phosphate, and potassium carbonate.
Reservoir Feeding
- Vegetative stage: Mix 15 mL per gallon of water.
- Transition stage: Mix 5 mL per gallon of water.
- Full flowering: Discontinue Grow and follow the current Cutting Edge Solutions feed chart for the appropriate Micro and Bloom ratios.
Injection Feeding
- Vegetative stage: Set the injection ratio to 1:250 or 0.4%.
- Transition stage: Set the injection ratio to 1:750 or 0.13%.
Proper Mixing Order
- Begin with fresh water.
- If using Bulletproof Si, add it first, mix thoroughly, and allow approximately five minutes for dispersion.
- Add Micro next and mix thoroughly before continuing.
- Add Grow, followed by Bloom and any additional supplements, mixing well between every product.
- Measure EC or ppm, then check and adjust the final pH for your crop and growing medium.
Never combine undiluted nutrient concentrates directly. Mixing concentrates together can cause mineral precipitation, nutrient lockout, and clogged irrigation equipment.
Important: Grow 2-1-6 is one component of a three-part base fertilizer system and is not intended to provide complete plant nutrition by itself. Always use it with Micro and Bloom according to the current Cutting Edge Solutions feeding chart.
