Over time, synthetic fertilizers can build up in coco coir and peat media, leading to salt lockout and restricting nutrient uptake.

Clearing severe salt buildup traditionally requires heavy leaching, using up to 2–3 times the container's volume in fresh water (around 40–60L for a 20L pot).

Formulated with organic chelating agents, flush solutions help dissolve bound mineral salts so they rinse out with significantly less water. Added carbohydrates feed beneficial root-zone microbes, supporting root health as plants finish their bloom phase.

Unlike growing in dirt, where soil bacteria and minerals can act as a buffer, hydroponic systems rely entirely on you for nutrients.

The following three are essential, yet tend to bind together and form insoluble solids (precipitate) if mixed together in a single bottle. This greatly reduces plant bioavailability.

Phosphorus, without it, plants stall, develop weak roots, and fail to produce flowers or fruit.

Calcium builds strong cell walls, protects against disease, and powers root tip growth.

Sulfates / Sulfur, directly impacts plant taste, aroma, and overall leaf greenness.

Professor's Orginal is great for splitting the formula into Part A and Part B keeps these reactive elements completely stable until they are diluted in your water reservoir, ensuring maximum plant bioavailability.

Hydroponic systems rely heavily on clear pumps, lines, and drip emitters. A "Pure & Clean" formula minimizes salt buildup, preventing line clogs and reducing root-zone lockout.

Roses are a perfect example of a plant that many people rule out growing due to a reputation for being difficult.

And they are.

Naturally, they rely on ideal soil, environmental, and temperature conditions to truly flourish.

Most gardeners can get the soil right and even find a nice place in the yard, but they often struggle to produce a resilient plant.

The presence of silicon increases defense mechanisms against pests and diseases, while also improving resistance to heat and cold stress, leading to significantly stronger and larger floral growth.

In natural soil, plants must wait for beneficial microbes to slowly break down rock minerals into a usable form of silicon. Super Si bypasses this waiting period by delivering that exact, bioavailable form directly to the root zone for rapid uptake.

SuperSI is the latest evolution in hydroponic nutrient technology! This powerful composite uses specialised, ultra-soluble nano-particulate silicic acid compounds alongside bioactive amino acids. The result for your garden? Powerful vegetative growth and heavy flowering plants! This innovative solut...

Healthy roots, better fruits 🍅

Creating an environment for roots to thrive does not require harsh chemicals.

Bio-Diesel introduces salt-tolerant microbes (living organisms) that turn your soil into a thriving root zone that is very resilient against pathogens and disease. It is also fantastic at stabilising bacteria and fungi.

Due to its composition, it is preferred amongst hydroponic enthusiasts as it is easy on your equipment. And it is also perfect for traditional gardeners in harsh and tropical conditions for its ability to provide resistance against mould, fungi, and bacteria.

Overwatering and root rot are often the result of misguided love.
This is a natural coco-based plant medium that will become your best friend.

It pairs a highly porous structure with Trichoderma, a beneficial mould that naturally eliminates destructive soil pathogens without chemicals.

This lightly buffered substrate is ideal for heavy-feeding, fast-growing plants like tomatoes, capsicums, and high-value ornamentals that demand precise nutrient steering.

It thrives best in humid climates prone to root-suffocating dampness or in indoor, controlled environments. The coco flakes retain optimal hydration while draining freely, supplying vital oxygen to the roots and putting total performance in your hands.

Stepping up to a CO2-controlled environment will provide more robust crops with stronger, faster, and more tolerant yields that require far less water.

In saying this, it adds another element to the process that requires more attention, timing, and diligence.

A controller like this not only allows you to track levels, but also calculates how fast the PPM (parts per million) is rising and intelligently tapers off the injection as it approaches your target, preventing wasted gas.

Just as easily as you can connect a CO2 regulator or generator, you can also hook it up to an exhaust fan to decrease levels if the space gets too concentrated.

We have worked closely with Pro-Leaf to have the privilege of stocking one of the few (if any) controllers on the Australian market that are ready to plug and play without the need for additional adaptors.
