General Hydroponics Ripen 0.5-7-6 Bloom Finisher

General Hydroponics Ripen 0.5-7-6 is a concentrated liquid finishing nutrient formulated for the final one to two weeks of flowering and fruiting. Its specialized blend of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and sulfur supports final-stage flower and fruit development while promoting greater oil production and fragrance potential.

Ripen is suitable for hydroponics, coco coir, soilless mixes, and soil-based liquid feeding programs. Its highly concentrated formula makes it easy to incorporate into day tanks, reservoirs, and hand-watering schedules during the critical finishing stage before harvest.

• Final Week: Use Ripen as the finishing nutrient at approximately 5 mL per gallon before following your planned harvest or flushing routine.
• Solution pH: After mixing, check and adjust the solution to a pH of 5.5–6.5.

Important Compatibility Information

Do not use Ripen and General Hydroponics Dry KoolBloom together. Both are highly concentrated finishing products and should be treated as alternative finishing strategies. Combining them may raise nutrient concentration to unsafe levels.

Always follow the current product label or the General Hydroponics feed chart that matches your nutrient program. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
