Description

Product Description

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

Advanced Nutrients Piranha is designed to benefit the root zone and improve plants' nutrient uptake. This root mass expander is ideal for the opening of the bloom phase and works wonders for the root mass health and overall efficacy.

Key Features

High quality and easy to use
Easily absorbed by plants
No. 1 beneficial fungi biostimulant on the market
Balances root zone, minimizing the risk of crop failure
Improves plant tolerance to environmental stresses

What It Does

The formula is full of beneficial bacteria and fungi which increase the microbial activity in the root area for strong growth, and increased branching and surface area. The fungi break down nutrients into plant-available forms while feeding on waste secreted by the roots, resulting in an ultra-efficient rhizosphere.

How It Works

The formula of Piranha works to onset ectomycorrhizae, a process which expands and develops the surface area of the roots and as a result, improves the nutrient absorption. The boost of biomicrobial activity allows endomycorrhizal fungi to penetrate root membranes thereby moving nutrients into plants significantly smoother. From this not only is growth drastically improved but the plant is overall stronger and more resistant to pathogens.

How To Use Advanced Nutrients Piranha

Use in the first two weeks of the grow phase and again in the first two weeks of the bloom phase. Suitable for all substrates and systems.

FAQs

What are Advanced Nutrients Piranha used for?

Advanced Nutrients Piranha is a beneficial fungi supplement designed to enhance root development and nutrient uptake in plants. It contains multiple strains of mycorrhizal fungi that form symbiotic relationships with plant roots. These fungi expand the root system's reach, improving water and nutrient absorption, increasing stress tolerance, and promoting overall plant health and vigour.

How does Piranha work?

Piranha works by introducing beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to the root zone. These fungi form a symbiotic relationship with plant roots, extending the root system's reach through fungal hyphae. This expanded network enhances nutrient and water uptake, improves soil structure, and protects roots from pathogens, resulting in stronger, healthier plants with increased yields.

When should I apply Piranha?

Apply Piranha early in the plant's life cycle, ideally during transplanting or in the early vegetative stage. This allows the mycorrhizal fungi to establish a strong connection with the developing root system. Continue applications throughout the growing cycle to maintain a healthy fungal network. Follow the manufacturer's dosage instructions for best results.

Can I use Piranha in hydroponic systems?

Yes, Piranha can be used in hydroponic systems as well as soil-based growing. In hydroponics, it helps establish beneficial fungal populations that are often lacking in soilless environments. This can improve nutrient uptake and root health. However, ensure your hydroponic system allows for some root zone aeration to support fungal growth.

Is Piranha compatible with other nutrients?

Piranha is compatible with most nutrient lines and supplements. However, avoid using it with fungicides or high levels of phosphorus, which can inhibit mycorrhizal fungi growth. For best results, use Piranha as part of a complete Advanced Nutrients feeding program. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for mixing and application.

How often should I apply Piranha?

For optimal results, apply Piranha every 7-10 days throughout the growing cycle. In soil, you can also mix it directly into the growing medium before planting. Consistent application ensures a continuous supply of beneficial fungi to support root development and nutrient uptake. Adjust frequency based on plant needs and growing conditions.

Is Piranha organic?

Piranha contains naturally occurring beneficial fungi and is suitable for organic growing practices. However, it's not certified organic. The product is designed to mimic and enhance natural soil processes without introducing synthetic chemicals. Always check with your local organic certification body if you're growing certified organic crops.

What benefits does Piranha offer?

Piranha offers numerous benefits, including improved nutrient uptake, enhanced root development, increased water absorption, and better stress tolerance. It can lead to stronger plants, higher yields, and improved crop quality. The mycorrhizal fungi also contribute to soil health, improving structure and microbial activity in the root zone.

Can Piranha help with nutrient deficiencies?

While Piranha doesn't directly supply nutrients, it can help address nutrient deficiencies by significantly improving nutrient uptake. The mycorrhizal fungi extend the reach of the root system, accessing nutrients that might otherwise be unavailable to the plant. This can help prevent and alleviate nutrient deficiencies when used as part of a balanced feeding program.

How quickly will I see results from using Piranha?

Results from using Piranha can often be observed within 2-3 weeks of application. You may notice improved plant vigor, enhanced root development, and increased resistance to environmental stresses. However, for best results, use Piranha consistently throughout the growing cycle to maintain a healthy population of mycorrhizal fungi in the root zone.
