The Blue Max base nutrient set is a complete plant food designed to give your plants everything they need for healthy and hearty growth from seedling all the way to harvest. Each part plays an essential role throughout the plant's growth and development, providing all primary, secondary, and micro-nutrients for the specific requirements of fruiting and flowering plants. BlueMax Part A supplies plants with nitrogen, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and micro-nutrients. Part B supplies plants with the appropriate amounts of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and sulfur for achieving high yield with every harvest. It can be used in any type of garden to grow all varieties of plants. This proprietary formula contains multiple forms of chelated micro-nutrients and is ionically balanced to maximize nutrient uptake and minimize the energy plants use taking up essential nutrients. BlueMax Series is designed for use in all hydroponic systems, aeroponics/aero-gardens, coco-coir, all soil-less mediums such as vermiculite, perlite, rockwool, and in soil. Whatever you're growing, your garden will greatly benefit from having BlueMax as part of their feeding regimen.

BlueMax base nutrients can be fed to all varieties of plants including: vegetables, herbs, microgreens, fruits, flowers, trees, shrubs, medicinal plants, grasses, ornamentals, houseplants, succulents, cacti, roses, orchids, ivy, exotic plants, and so much more. Whether your plants are potted or in the ground, indoor or outdoor, growing hydroponically or aeroponically, BlueMax is suitable for use in any variety of plant in any growing medium.

BlueMax is designed to be easy to use for both beginners and advanced growers. The BlueMax base nutrient set contains 2 bottles, Part A and Part B and includes mixing instructions. Both parts are used together with each feeding throughout the life of your plant. Simply dilute a small amount of each part in water, and feed your plants. for general feeding, use the following guide as a starting point:

Feed with every other watering, or once a week. Large or "hungry" plants may need feeding with every watering. As a general rule of thumb when feeding, if you notice the leaves becoming too dark green or see burnt leaf tips, then lower the nutrient dosage or feed less often. If you see yellowing leaves and slowed growth, then you know to either increase the nutrient dosage or feed more frequently. Make sure the pH is in the proper range for your growing medium. Soil grown plants need a nutrient solution with a pH between 6.2 - 7 for best results. Hydroponically grown plants (soil less media such as coco coir, rockwool, promix, clay pellets etc.) should have a nutrient solution with a pH between 5.5 - 6.2 for best results.

YES! BlueMax is compatible with other fertilizers, supplements, and garden products.

If properly stored away from heat and light, in room temperatures, with the cap tightly sealed, our products can last 2 years or more. If the products will be sitting for long periods, it is best to give them a good shake every so often to keep the product homogeneous.

BlueMax (2 part) and the Elite Series (3 part) are essentially the same. If you add up the N-P-K numbers from all the bottles in the BlueMax Series and do the same for Elite, you'll find the totals add up to almost the same exact ratios. The pros of using the 2 part is that it's one less step, saving some time and making things a bit easier with one less bottle. The pros of using the 3 part is that by having the micro nutrients separate from the grow nutrients, you have more options for customizing the exact ratio of nutrients your plants are getting. Think of it as cooking and having your salt, pepper, and oregano all in separate jars versus having salt and pepper in one jar and the oregano in a second jar. Either way you have salt, pepper, and oregano, but with the 3 part you can control the amounts of each with greater control where as if you use the 2 part, the salt and pepper are combined already, not allowing you to use different amounts of salt vs pepper. All of our base nutrients are effective products which will give you the amazing results Blue Planet is known for, so you can't go wrong when choosing between them.
