Why you should be using NEWTS
- NEWTS Veg and Flower is manufactured using the highest-grade mineral ingredients, making sure that NEWTS is fully chelated and bio-available for easy up take.
- The NEWTS range is locally produced cannabis nutrients, competing with leading international brands at more affordable prices.
- NEWTS is 5 x more concentrated than current leading local brands and works out cheaper per feed while providing higher levels of available nutrients than its local competitors.
- Because studies have shown that Iron plays a critical role in photosynthesis1, NEWTS has more chelated-Iron. This increases the rate of chlorophyll production which improves growth and yields.
- NEWTS has a higher Sulphur content because studies have shown that Sulphur plays a vital role in plant metabolism, disease resistance and enzyme production2. These qualities help to maximise metabolic processes3, and boost terpene production.
- NEWTS is more PH stable compared to leading local brands.
- NEWTS contains higher levels of bio-available micro-nutrients than most leading international brands.
- Because the vegetative period is shorter than other agricultural crops, and plants are often grown from clones instead of seeds, we use higher levels of Phosphorous for rapid root growth and thick stem development. Most premium international brands contain approximately 30ppm of Phosphorous in veg, while NEWTS has around 45ppm in veg at full strength.
- NEWTS Veg has an NPK of 2-1-3, providing high levels of Nitrogen and slightly more Potassium because Potassium aids in the uptake and use of Nitrogen.
- NEWTS Flower has an NPK of 1-2-3. Available research indicates that during flower, the Nitrogen requirement is half of what it is during veg. The plant requires significantly more Phosphorous and Potassium to form thick, heavy flowers. NEWTS provides these elements in a form that is readily taken up by the roots.
