House & Garden Nutrients FAQ's
Match it to your substrate. Soil A&B for potting mixes, Cocos A&B for coco coir, and Aqua Flakes A&B for recirculating hydroponic systems like DWC and flood-and-drain. They are not interchangeable — the formulations account for how each medium holds and releases nutrients, and using the wrong one is the most common problem growers hit with this brand.
It is a root-zone product used in the early weeks of a cycle, aimed at root development and protection rather than feeding the plant directly. It is the brand's most expensive bottle by volume, and it is dosed very lightly — a little goes a long way, and overdosing is both wasteful and counterproductive. Sold here from 100mL up to 5L.
Shooting Powder is a late-flower product, mixed per litre of water and typically run in the final weeks. It is sold as single sachets so you can try it without committing, or as a box of five for a full cycle. It sits alongside Top Shooter and Top Booster in the flowering range rather than replacing them.
It keeps mineral build-up from blocking drippers, lines and reservoirs. Anyone running a recirculating or drip-fed system knows the maintenance cost of a furred-up line, and this is the cheap preventative. It is dosed continuously at a very low rate rather than used as a periodic flush.
Yes — three of them, one per substrate. The Soil, Coco and Aqua starter kits each pair the correct base nutrient with the additives House & Garden recommends alongside it. For someone moving to the brand for the first time it is a cheaper and less error-prone way in than buying bottles individually.
