FREQUENCY OF APPLICATION
HOUSEPLANTS:
BUMPER A & B: Water with plantfood once a month for low light plants, more often with other varieties.

SOILLESS MIX IN POTS:
BLOSSOM A & B: Water with Blossom A & B solution every other time you water your plants. Flush plants with water until it shows in a saucer underneath the pot.
PROPAGATION:
BUMPER A & B: Water seedlings and cuttings once with seedling strength plantfood. Water once with full strength plantfood when the roots are established.

For optimum results change plantfood weekly or as growth indicates. Recommendation: Use a nutrient meter to indicate how your plants are feeding.


BUMPER CROP
pH ADJUSTMENT SOLUTIONS

BUMPER DOWN helps your plant absorb nutrients by lowering the pH of the water around your plant's roots.

HOW TO USE BUMPER DOWN
HOUSEPLANTS IN SOIL: Add 1 ml of Bumper Down to 10 litres of water used. If your water has a pH of 8 or higher add 1 ml to 5 litres of water. You can check with your local water supplier regarding the pH range of your tap water.
HYDROCULTURE PLANTS: Use Bumper Down in the same way as you would for houseplants. For the best plant health and growth use a pH Indicator Test Kit to easily adjust your plant's water to the pH level of 6.
HYDROPONIC GARDENS: After adding Bumper Crop plantfood, test your solution using a pH Indicator Test Kit. Use small amounts of Bumper Down to adjust the pH down to 6. If the pH needs to be adjusted up to 6 use small amounts of Bumper Up. Bumper Down and Up are super concentrated. Add in small amounts, then mix and test the pH.

BUMPER UP works by raising the pH of plantfood solutions.

HOW TO USE BUMPER UP
HOUSEPLANTS IN SOIL / HYDROCULTURE PLANTS: Use Bumper Up to raise the pH of your water if the pH is below 6. Do this by adding small amounts of Bumper Up. Mix well and check with the pH test kit. Once you know how much Bumper Up is needed, you can add this amount each time you fill the watering can. When feeding your plants, first add the required amount of plantfood to the water, then adjust the pH balance.
HYDROPONIC GARDENS: After adding Bumper Crop plantfood, test the pH balance and add Bumper Up to raise the pH level or Bumper Down to lower the pH balance. Mix in small amounts.

NOTE: Certain water conditions may cause a clouding condition in your nutrient solution particularly with flowering plantfoods. If this occurs, make a new batch. Mix in the Part B plantfood into the solution, adjust the pH to 7 and add the Part A plantfood. Re-test and adjust the pH after final mixing.
