What Makes Bionova P20 So Effective?

Phosphorus (20%)
Phosphorus plays an important role in forming energy carriers and DNA within plant cells:
  • Essential for forming energy carriers (ATP)
  • Required for DNA formation within plant cells
  • Essential for metabolism of sugars
  • Critical for cell membrane formation
  • Supports all cellular reactions
ATP Energy Production
Phosphorus is important to provide the necessary energy used by the plant’s metabolism:
  • Every single reaction inside a plant cell depends on phosphorus
  • Used as energy source in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
  • ATP provides energy for absorption and synthesis
  • Supports all metabolic processes
  • Critical for plant growth and development
Stimulates Root Development
P20 stimulates root development during early growth:
  • Promotes strong root system development
  • Increases root hair formation
  • Supports rapid root expansion
  • Enhances nutrient uptake capacity
  • Establishes strong foundation for growth
Prompts Flowering
P20 should be used to prompt flowering:
  • Stimulates rapid flower induction
  • Provides head start in bud development
  • Supports early flowering phase
  • Increases bud formation
  • Enhances overall flowering response

Understanding Phosphorus Deficiency

Signs of Phosphorus Deficiency
A deficiency of phosphorus manifests itself as slow growth and leaf discoloration:
  • Slow growth and development
  • Leaf discoloration
  • Leaves turn dark, dull, blue-green
  • May become pale in severe deficiency
  • Reddish, reddish-violet, or violet color develops from increased anthocyanin synthesis
  • Short and purple-reddish petioles
  • Short root systems with no root hairs
  • Dark brown spots on leaves
  • Slowed growth and flowering
Treat Deficiency Quickly
If plants present symptoms of phosphorus (P) deficiency, apply Bionova P20:
  • Helps plants quickly recover from nutritional shortage
  • Restores normal growth and development
  • Prevents further damage
  • Supports rapid recovery
  • Returns plants to healthy state
Understanding Phosphorus Excess
An excess of phosphorus inhibits absorption of micro-nutrients:
  • Results in withered and discolored plants
  • Blocks micro-nutrient uptake
  • Causes nutrient imbalances
  • Use P20 only when needed
  • Monitor plant response carefully

When Should You Use Bionova P20?

Use When Deficiency is Detected
P20 should be used when a phosphorus deficiency is detected:
  • Slow growth and development
  • Leaf discoloration (dark, dull, blue-green)
  • Reddish-violet color development
  • Short root systems
  • Dark brown spots on leaves
Use to Prompt Flowering
P20 should be used to prompt flowering:
  • One week before bloom for rapid flower induction
  • During first weeks of flower for head start
  • To stimulate bud development
  • For maximum flowering response
  • Throughout early flowering phase
Use to Stimulate Root Development
P20 stimulates root development:
  • During early vegetative growth
  • When transplanting
  • To establish strong root system
  • For rapid root expansion
  • To enhance nutrient uptake

Pro Tips for Using Bionova P20

Tip 1: Treat Phosphorus Deficiency Immediately
If plants present symptoms of phosphorus (P) deficiency such as short and purple-reddish petioles, short root systems with no root hairs, dark brown spots on leaves and slowed growth/flowering, apply Bionova P20 to help plants quickly recover from the nutritional shortage.
Tip 2: Increase Dosage One Week Before Bloom
Increase the dosage of P20 one week before bloom to stimulate a rapid flower induction. This provides a head start in bud development.
Tip 3: Phosphorus Powers All Plant Reactions
Phosphorus is important to provide the necessary energy used by the plant’s metabolism to absorb and synthesize important molecules. Every single reaction inside a plant cell depends on the use of phosphorus as an energy source in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Tip 4: Use for Outdoor Growing
Mono-nutrients like P20 are excellent for outdoor growing. After checking the soil and irrigation water, use P20 to adjust nutrition elements and guarantee adequate amounts of available nutrients.
Tip 5: Both Irrigation and Foliar Spray Work
P20 can be applied as a soil drench (irrigation) or foliar spray. Both methods are effective. Choose based on your growing situation and plant condition.
Tip 6: Don’t Overuse Phosphorus
An excess of phosphorus inhibits absorption of micro-nutrients resulting in withered and discolored plants. Use P20 only when needed to treat deficiency or stimulate flowering.
Tip 7: Combine with Other Bionova Products
P20 can be used with all Bionova products. For complete flowering nutrition, combine with PK 13-14, X-cel, and Vitasol during bloom phase.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bionova P20

Q: When should I use Bionova P20? A: Use P20 when you see signs of phosphorus deficiency (slow growth, leaf discoloration, reddish-violet color) or to prompt flowering and stimulate bud development.
Q: Can I use P20 as a foliar spray? A: Yes! P20 can be applied as a foliar spray at 2-4ml per gallon. Apply during lights off or early morning to prevent leaf burn.
Q: What’s the difference between P20 and PK 13-14? A: P20 is pure phosphorus (20% P) for deficiency treatment and early flowering stimulation. PK 13-14 is a balanced phosphorus-potassium bloom booster (13% P, 14% K) for peak flowering.
Q: How quickly does P20 treat phosphorus deficiency? A: Plants typically show improvement within days of P20 application. Leaf discoloration will begin to recover and growth will resume.
Q: Can I use P20 with other nutrient brands? A: Yes. P20 is compatible with all fertilizers and substrate types. However, for best results, use with Bionova base nutrients.
Q: What does “1:1000 dilution ratio” mean? A: A 1:1000 dilution means 1ml of P20 per 1000ml (1 liter) of water, which equals approximately 1ml per gallon.
Q: Is P20 safe for all crops? A: Yes. P20 is a food-grade mineral additive that is safe for all crops including vegetables, herbs, flowers, and fruiting plants.
Q: When should I increase P20 dosage? A: Increase the dosage of P20 one week before bloom to stimulate rapid flower induction and provide a head start in bud development.
Q: Can I use P20 during vegetative growth? A: Yes, but primarily to stimulate root development or treat phosphorus deficiency. During flowering is when phosphorus demand is highest.
Q: What makes P20 different from other phosphorus additives? A: Bionova P20 can be added to crops as needed without any harmful side-effects – an historical improbability with other phosphorus additives. It’s food-grade and free of chlorides.
