HGV Base - Dry Ready-To-Mix Formula 14.5-0-0, 2.5 Gallon Jug

HGV Base Formula 14.5-0-0 Built for Veg and Flower at One Strength This 2.5-gallon ready-to-mix dry concentrate carries 14.5% nitrate-only nitrogen and 19% calcium for cell wall structure across veg and flowering. The same 15 mL/gal dose runs from start to finish — no veg-to-bloom switch on this part of the recipe. Pair with HGV Growth at 30 mL/gal during veg, then swap to HGV Flowering at 30 mL/gal during bloom, keeping the Base unchanged. Calcium and Nitrogen Base Formula for Two-Part Feeding As a calcium and nitrogen formula, this Base supplies cell-wall calcium and nitrate nitrogen in fully water-soluble form. No ammoniacal or urea forms drive salt buildup. Keep the Base concentrate in its own jug — calcium and phosphate precipitate in concentrated contact with Growth or Flower. Add it to the reservoir last, then check pH (5.6–5.8 hydro, 6.0–6.2 soil). Key Features NPK 14.5-0-0: All-nitrate nitrogen for cell-level uptake without ammoniacal lag, paired with cell-wall calcium across the full cycle. 19% Calcium: Strengthens cell walls and supports vigorous transpiration in fast-growing canopies during both veg and flowering. One-Strength Feeding: Same 15 mL/gal Base dose from veg through flowering — only the Growth or Flowering side of the recipe changes. 630-Gallon Feed Capacity: A 2.5-gallon jug yields 630 gallons of finished feed at the recommended rate. Multi-Media Compatibility: Same dose in NFT, DWC, flood-and-drain, rockwool, coco, and peat-based soilless mixes.
