NPK RAW Amino Acids | 7% Soluble Nitrogen, 2 oz to 25 lb – 8 oz

What Is Actually in RAW Amino Acids The label is short because the product is one thing. Guaranteed analysis is 7% total nitrogen, and all 7% is water soluble. It is derived from L-glycine and L-glutamic acid, with nothing else in the bag. No fillers and no dyes, which is what the uncut and tech grade description means in practice. The rate is an eighth of a teaspoon to a quarter of a teaspoon per gallon of solution in the reservoir. In grams those doses are 0.6 g and 1.25 g respectively, and a powder this concentrated is worth weighing rather than scooping. Run the arithmetic and the point of the product becomes clear. A quarter teaspoon per gallon delivers roughly twenty three parts per million of nitrogen. A base feed in flower typically supplies six or seven times that. So this is a supplement working on the amino acid side, not a nitrogen source, and it does not replace anything in a feed chart. It dissolves fully, so it suits a reservoir, a drip line or a hand watering can equally. What Amino Acids for Plants Actually Do in a Feed Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, and protein synthesis is where a plant spends much of its energy. Supplying them directly is the argument for a product like this. The two in the bag are not chosen at random either. Glycine and glutamic acid are among the amino acids most closely tied to nitrogen assimilation and to the formation of chlorophyll. A plant that is handed them has less work to do building them from nitrate. Where this shows up in practice is under stress and during transitions. Transplant, a heat spike, a hard defoliation or the stretch into flower are the moments growers reach for it. Compatibility is the other half of the appeal. It mixes with any programme, from a two part hydroponic line to an organic soil feed, because it contributes almost no salt and no colour. There are two honest cautions here. The dose is tiny, so a kitchen measuring spoon is the difference between the right rate and three times it. A soluble amino acid also feeds microbes as readily as plants. Mix what you will use rather than leaving a dosed reservoir standing for days. Key Features 7% total nitrogen: All of it water soluble, with nothing held back in the bag. From glycine and glutamic acid: Two of the amino acids tied most closely to nitrogen use. No fillers and no dyes: Uncut tech grade powder, which is why the dose is so small. An eighth to a quarter teaspoon: Per gallon in the reservoir, or 0.6 to 1.25 grams by weight. Fully soluble: It suits a reservoir, a drip line or a watering can alike. Works with any programme: Hobby or commercial, soil or hydroponic, organic or mineral. A supplement, not a feed: At the top rate it supplies around 23 ppm of nitrogen. Five sizes: From a 2 oz pot for a tent to a 25 lb sack for a facility.
