Safety Information

Build Stronger Cell Walls And Boost Resistance to Stress and Diseases Organically


Cutting Edge Solutions Plant Amp, which has been OMRI certified and registered with the CDFA, is a chelated calcium product that also contains a proprietary organic plant stimulating ingredient. Calcium is the basis of cell wall development in a plant and essential in metabolic processing of nutrients and functiong of enzymes and hormones. The chelated calcium in Plant Amp is extremely soluble, providing an easily utilized source of calcium. Plant Amp is 100% organic and can be used throughout the entire growth cycle to optimize a plants growth.

Plant Amp is formulated for use in hydroponics, soilless, continuous feed, drain to waste, and for use in soil. Plant Amp can be applied at every watering in conjunction with any of Cutting Edge Solutions products, or other commercially available hydroponic nutrients. Plant Amp is also a fantastic foliar spray, due to its low molecular weight for uptake, but also because it is very "clean" leaving no heavy build-up or residue on the plant.

  • Directions for use:

    This is a highly concentrated solution. Never mix undiluted concentrates, as this may result in nutrient lock-up. Add each nutrient consecutively, allowing ample time for each concentrate used to thoroughly dilute and mix into the water. If preparing a nutrient stock tank, to be used over a period of time exceeding 24 hours, you must aerate nutrient reservoir regularly.

  • Shake well and measure carefully using a milliliter measuring cup.
  • If using Micro 6-0-0, add Micro 6-0-0 first to water, then other nutrients.
  • After nutrients are mixed in water, adjust pH to 4.5-6.5. If your pH naturally falls within these parameters, pH adjustment is not necessary.
  • Monitor ppm and EC in reservoir and top off with fresh water as needed.
  • Reservoir temperature should be 60-68 degrees F.
  • Do not store product in direct sunlight. Do not freeze.
  • Mixing Instructions
    • For hydroponics, foliar feeding, and soil applications:
      • 10 ml Plant Amp per gallon of water
    • For drain-to-waste systems
      • Adjust pH of solution before the addtion of Plant Amp. Do not adjust pH after addition of Plant Amp.

    NOTE: There is a nuance of Plant Amp that is sure to cause some questions from first time users regarding pH drops after adding it to a reservoir. Plant Amp is derived from organic acids, which will cause a pH drop to around 4 right after mixing, this is essentially a “false" reading. This drop is not caused by a corrosive, strong-bonded acid such as phosphoric acid, and will rise on it's own after 24 hours as it breaks down. It is perfectly okay to water with the fertilizer solution immediately after mixing, it will not harm the plant material or negatively interact with the availability of the other fertilizer elements. If a gardener is starting with a low pH source water (typical of R/O water), we recommend adjusting to 7 before adding any fertilizers to the reservoir.

    Cutting Edge Solutions Plant Amp Questions & Answers

    Does your product work with all mediums?

    Yes. Cutting Edge Solutions products have been developed wth a very broad range of variables, from water sources to varying types of medium and growing methods. Through our experience with these differences we have achieved a final formula that is effective when used across a wide spectrum of methods.

    How long should I go between tank changes?

    Tank change intervals depend on the size of your reservoir, and whether or not you are using a drain to waste or recirculating watering system. The average life span of a reservoir is about 5-7 days. When using drain to waste it is best to check your PPM/EC level as the nutrient solution is used to make sure that there is no spike in the PPM/EC, but usually the plants will use the fertilizer as they grow. It is more critical to check your nutrient solution while utilizing a recirculating system, as the runoff can drastically change the PPM/EC level of your nutrient solution. If your PPM/EC is raising in your re-circulating reservoir, you should top it off with plain water until your meter shows an acceptable level.

    The size of a plant or the growth stage can determine the rate of water usage and nutrient uptake. Logically, the larger the plant gets, the more water and nutrient it will use. Some short-term crop plants (tomatoes, lettuce) go through an aggressive nutrient uptake around the 3-5 week period, so make sure to keep up on tank changes/monitoring during this critical time period.

    Is a transition period necessary between the vegetative and bloom stage?

    Depending on the type of plant you are growing, a transition mix may be beneficial. Some more hardy plants don't need to gradually accept a new mix, while some more delicate plants appreciate more subtle changes in its' diet in order to reduce the risk of shock. Slower growing plant varieties may benefit from a transition period more than a faster growing variety as well. Some plants are naturally more efficient at taking up Iron and don't require a transition stage.

    What is the optimal Ph level for my nutrient solution?

    The optimum Ph level for maximum nutrient availability is different for all elements, for instance Nitrogen has a different optimal Ph range than Phosphorus. The optimal Ph range can also vary due to medium and growing method variances, that is to say soil vs. rockwool or Aeroponics vs. Ebb and Flow. Therefore, we recommend a Ph range that is most inclusive, from 4.5 to 6.5. The Ph level we recommend for the most inclusive beneficial range is 6.

    We do not recommend using Ph up at any time. If your water is acidic, i.e. RO water, adjust your water to Ph 7.0, then add nutrients. Utilizing this method, the elements are less likely to be locked out because of a severe Ph swing.

    What PPM/EC is optimum for my nutrient solution?

    PPM levels vary from situation to situation. Our recommended vegetative mixing rate can run as high as 2000 PPM, while a “flush" mixing rate is much lower. Please refer to the CES product mixing and reference chart for specific recommended PPM ranges for our products. Note: Our mixing chart is based on a 0 PPM water source, please test your water to establish your specific base range.
