What is the Professors Nutrients Organic Starter Kit and what’s included?
This all-in-one kit includes Organic Grow, Organic Bloom, Grow Fast, Flower Boost, Terpene Gold, and organic pH Up/Down. It’s designed to support your plants from veg to harvest, offering complete organic feeding in one package. Buying the kit is usually more cost-effective than sourcing bottles individually.
Is the Organic Starter Kit beginner-friendly?
Yes. It’s built for simplicity, with all the essentials included and a clear feed chart. Experienced growers also use it for small spaces or quick organic runs because of its flexibility and convenience.
What grow methods can I use with the Professors Organic Starter Kit?
The kit works in soil, coco, Rockwool, perlite, clay balls, and hydroponics (including DWC and recirculating systems). Just maintain good hygiene and filtration in hydro or dripper systems to prevent clogging.
How do I use the Organic Starter Kit and when should I add each product?
Follow the feed chart for guidance. Use Organic Grow during veg, Bloom during flower, and add Grow Fast, Flower Boost, or Terpene Gold when plants are actively growing or flowering. You don’t need to use every additive every week—use based on plant stage and goals.
For the full week-by-week program, see our Professor’s Nutrients organic feed chart.
How should I mix the nutrients and adjust pH?
Add nutrients one by one to water, stir well, then adjust pH last using Organic pH Up or Down. Never pour pH adjusters directly into dry media—always dilute them into your mix or reservoir slowly and stir thoroughly.
Can I use the kit with tap or RO water? Do I need Cal-Mag?
Yes. Tap and RO water are both fine, but RO users or coco growers may need extra calcium/magnesium. Don’t add Cal-Mag blindly—check your water quality and monitor plant response first.
Is the Professors Organic Starter Kit certified organic and safe for edibles?
Yes. The nutrients are OFC-certified organic and made in Australia. They’re suitable for herbs, veggies, and fruits—just follow sensible dosing and avoid heavy feeding close to harvest.
How often should I feed, and is it safe for seedlings?
Feed frequency depends on your medium—soil usually less often than coco or hydro. For seedlings and clones, start with very diluted feeds. Avoid full-strength nutrients until plants are established.
Do I need an EC or PPM meter when using the kit?
It’s not required but highly recommended. Monitoring EC and pH helps avoid overfeeding, improves consistency, and makes it easier to troubleshoot issues like leaf burn or pale growth.
Can the Professors Organic Starter Kit increase yield and flavour?
Yes, when used correctly. Organic Bloom and Flower Boost support bigger blooms, while Terpene Gold encourages better aroma and flavour. For best results, combine with strong genetics, proper lighting, and good environmental control.
Why are my plants burning or growing slowly with the kit?
Common causes include overfeeding, poor pH, or environmental stress. Grow Fast won’t fix bad lighting or cold roots. Start light, monitor runoff, and make sure your setup supports healthy growth.
How should I store the bottles and how long do they last?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Don’t freeze or expose them to high heat. If the contents separate but remix easily, they’re usually still fine. Bad smells or chunky textures mean it’s time to replace.
Will the organic nutrients clog my lines or reservoirs?
Organic feeds can clog if over-concentrated or left to sit. Use filters, keep tanks cool and clean, and flush lines regularly. Fresh daily mixes are ideal, but if storing overnight, aerate and monitor for spoilage.
What if my Organic Starter Kit arrives damaged?
Take clear photos of the box and any damage, then contact us immediately so we can assist with a return or replacement. Local pickup from our Bellambi location is also available when in stock.
How many plants will the Professors Organic Starter Kit cover?
It depends on pot size, plant count, and how long you veg and bloom. For small to medium gardens, it can last multiple cycles. Larger grows or heavy feeders will go through the bottles faster.
