I've just seen a marketing email advertising a new range of nutrients.

Their root stimulant formula is £40 for 250ml

Is somebody is having a laugh or what?

The GH RapidStart Root Enhancer I got as a freebie (30ml) goes for ~$10 US

Root stimulator might be expensive but that’s almost twice what I pay for the “regular” brand. Can’t possibly be that much better IMO.

Only thing I've ever used it on is the ponics-toy, and then only the 1st 2 res fills. 
Have no way of knowing if it had any impact, but the roots have clogged up the bell syphon twice LOL

I get my great white shark on Amazon and some Wilson root stimulator for less than 10 or 20 at my hydroponics store here but I do remember thinking it was cheap. There is some whack shit out there, I tell all my friends that grow to let me know what they're planning on buying before they do in case they get the urge to drink the snake oil. It's in every market tho, shame 

Do better, feel better.

Great White Shark is what I've used both with germination and when I put the seed into dirt once popped.
Any thoughts on trying this sample? I'm about to start the next few beens, I better read up on the stuff 'cause I really have no idea even her to use it at the moment 😉
