Step-by-Step Indoor Flower Garden Setup
1. Choose Your Growing Method
Beginner Soil Setup:
Start with Bionova Soil Super Mix in quality containers. This complete nutrition system eliminates guesswork and provides everything flowers need for abundant blooms.
Advanced Custom Soil Mixing:
Create precision soil blends by combining base potting mix with targeted GHF mineral additives:
For Heavy Bloomers (Roses, Hibiscus):
- Base potting mix + Soil Super Mix
- Extra GHF Booster PK+ for bloom enhancement
- GHF Calcium for strong stems
For Delicate Flowers (African Violets, Begonias):
- Light potting mix + Soil Super Mix
- GHF Grow for balanced nutrition
2. Install Proper Lighting
Mount full-spectrum LED grow lights 12-24 inches above your plants. Choose from our AB Lighting LED Top Lights for home growing or Dimlux Extreme Series LED Fixture 500W for professional results.
3. Prepare Your Custom Growing Medium
Basic Soil Method:
Mix Bionova Soil Super Mix with quality potting soil at a 1:4 ratio for balanced nutrition that lasts months.
Advanced Custom Blend:
Create your signature soil mix:
- Start with base potting mix (70%)
- Add Soil Super Mix (20%)
- Customize with specific GHF mineral additives (10%)
- Test pH and adjust if needed
4. Select and Plant Your Flowers
Choose flowers suited to your light conditions and nutrition program. Heavy feeders benefit from custom mineral blends, while easy-care varieties thrive with Soil Super Mix alone.
5. Establish Precision Nutrition Programs
Soil Super Mix Program (Beginner-Friendly):
- Bionova Soil Super Mix provides complete base nutrition
- Supplement with GHF Booster PK+ during flowering
- Add Bionova X-cel Bloom Stimulator for bloom enhancement
Custom Mineral Program (Advanced):
- GHF Grow during vegetative growth
- GHF Booster PK+ for flowering
- GHF Calcium for strong structure
- GHF Short Flower for quick-blooming varieties
Universal Bloom Boosters:
