Product Description

Founded in 1999, Advanced Nutrients have gone on to become the #1 brand in hydroponic nutrients designed to bolster, boost and flourish crops. Their range of products serve growers in over 117 countries worldwide, designed with precision technology and innovation.

Advanced Nutrients’ legacy bloom booster. Big Bud is not a classic flowering booster. Most blooming boosters contain potassium and phosphorus, which are necessary in high amounts during the flowering period. Big Bud also contains additional essential amino acids and vitamins.

Key Features

Comprised of highly absorbable forms of potassium and phosphorus
High-quality raw materials provide optimum conditions to strengthen and bulk floral structures
3:1 PK ratio maximizes bulk while minimizing the risk of heavy metal contamination
A combination of vitamins, organic materials, nutrients and other ingredients
Flowers with more essential oils and aromatics
Increases nutrient uptake
Increases cell expansion and replication for larger flowers
Increases creation of internal floral structures and compounds for increased aroma and taste

What It Does

Advanced Nutrients Big Bud produces denser, heavier and larger plants with greater amounts of terpenoids, essential oils and stronger aromas. The natural ingredients in the formula accelerate fruiting and flowering fulfilling the plant's maximum blooming potential.

How It Works

Advanced Nutrients Big Bud works differently from traditional flower boosters. The standard for flower boosters is the potassium and phosphorous content. However, Big Bud also contains essential vitamins and amino acids. Crucially, amino acids build the plant proteins which accelerate metabolism and increase flowering. The magnesium content fends off potassium toxicity and improves the aromas, flavour and texture. Ascorbic and Citric acid within the formula also improve the plant metabolism and respiration.

How To Use Advanced Nutrients Big Bud

Advanced Nutrients Big Bud should be applied with water, and never used in their concentrated form. Add to reservoir water or feed water. Use Big Bud from the 2nd week of the blooming phase up to the 3rd week before the flush. Suitable for all systems and substrates.

FAQs

What are Advanced Nutrients Big Bud?

Advanced Nutrients Big Bud is a premium flowering booster designed to enhance bud size and density. It contains a blend of phosphorus and potassium, along with amino acids and other compounds that promote flower development. Big Bud helps plants produce larger, heavier buds with increased essential oil production, potentially leading to improved yield and quality in your harvest.

How often should I use Big Bud?

Use Big Bud during the flowering stage of your plant's growth cycle. Start applying it when you see the first signs of flowers and continue until 2-3 weeks before harvest. For most growers, this means using it once or twice a week, depending on your feeding schedule. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended dosage, typically 2ml per liter of water.

Is Big Bud a PK booster?

Yes, Big Bud is primarily a PK (Phosphorus and Potassium) booster. However, it's more than just a standard PK supplement. Big Bud also contains a range of amino acids and other compounds that work synergistically to enhance flower development. This comprehensive formula supports not just bud size, but also essential oil production and overall bud quality.

Can Big Bud be used in soil and hydroponic systems?

Absolutely. Big Bud is versatile and can be used in various growing media, including soil, coco coir, and all types of hydroponic systems. In soil or coco, mix it into your nutrient solution for root feeding. For hydroponic setups, add it directly to your reservoir. Always shake the bottle well before use and mix thoroughly with your base nutrients.

When should I start using Big Bud?

Start using Big Bud from the second week of the flowering phase. This is typically when you switch to a 12/12 light cycle for photoperiod plants, or when auto-flowering plants naturally begin to flower. Continue use throughout the flowering stage, stopping 2-3 weeks before harvest to allow for proper flushing of the plant.

Will Big Bud work with other nutrient brands?

While Big Bud is designed to work optimally with other Advanced Nutrients products, it can be used with other nutrient brands. However, be cautious about overlapping ingredients and potential nutrient burn. Start with a lower dosage when combining with unfamiliar products and closely monitor your plants' response. Adjust as needed based on plant health and performance.

Is Big Bud organic?

Big Bud is not certified organic. It's a synthetic nutrient supplement designed for maximum effectiveness in boosting flower production. While it contains some naturally derived ingredients like amino acids, it's not suitable for strictly organic grow operations. If you're committed to organic growing, look for certified organic alternatives.

How does Big Bud affect yield?

Big Bud can significantly impact yield by promoting larger, denser buds. The PK boost supports robust flower development, while the amino acids enhance overall plant metabolism. Many growers report noticeable increases in bud size and weight when using Big Bud consistently. However, actual results can vary based on strain, growing conditions, and overall plant care.

Can Big Bud cause nutrient burn?

Like any concentrated nutrient, Big Bud can potentially cause nutrient burn if overused. Always start with the recommended dosage and observe your plants closely. If you notice signs of burn (like leaf tip yellowing or curling), reduce the concentration. Remember, more is not always better - follow the feeding chart and adjust based on your plants' needs.

How does Big Bud compare to other bloom boosters?

Big Bud stands out from other bloom boosters due to its comprehensive formula. While many boosters focus solely on PK, Big Bud includes amino acids and other compounds that support overall plant health and bud development. It's designed to work synergistically with other Advanced Nutrients products, potentially offering better results than standalone PK boosters.
