General Hydroponics FloraKleen, 2.5 Gallon

What does General Hydroponics FloraKleen do for a hydroponic system or potted plant?

General Hydroponics FloraKleen is a mineral salt clearing solution that dissolves fertilizer residue and excess salt buildup that accumulates in hydroponic systems, growing media, and potting soils over time. Regular fertilizer use causes these salts to collect, and FloraKleen clears them out to reduce plant stress from imbalanced or excess nutrients.

When during the grow cycle should FloraKleen be used?

General Hydroponics FloraKleen can be used at any point during a plant's life cycle, making it safe to apply while plants are actively growing. General Hydroponics recommends using FloraKleen monthly to purge hydroponic systems and potted plants of accumulated salts, and also as a final flush a few days before harvest to promote maturation and sugaring for improved flavor.

Is General Hydroponics FloraKleen compatible with both hydroponic systems and soil-based growing?

Yes, General Hydroponics FloraKleen is safe for use in hydroponic systems as well as soil-based and potted plant environments. FloraKleen is also compatible with all types of growing media while plants are actively growing.

How does using FloraKleen as a pre-harvest flush benefit the final crop?

Using General Hydroponics FloraKleen as a final flush a few days before harvest helps dissolve residual mineral and salt buildup, which promotes maturation and sugaring in the plant. This process can improve the overall flavor of the harvested crop.

What size is the General Hydroponics FloraKleen 2.5 Gallon, and is the formula concentrated?
