Shogun ZenZym: The Enzymatic Deep Clean for Your Roots
In the confined space of a pot, whether it's filled with soil, Pon, or LECA, root turnover is natural. Old roots die to make way for new ones. However, if left untreated, that dead matter sits there, inviting rot and pathogens. Shogun ZenZym is a unique blend of enzymes designed to keep your root zone thriving by acting as a biological cleaner.
Think of this as the "gut health" supplement for your substrate. It rapidly breaks down microscopic dead root mass, keeping the root zone clean and preventing the buildup of harmful bacteria.
Please note that we currently do not have 1L, 5L, or 10L bottles in stock at our nursery. This is a special order item and requires a 7-10 day processing time before your order is dispatched.
Why It’s Essential for Indoor Jungles
Turn Waste into Food: ZenZym doesn't just clean; it recycles. It breaks down dead root matter and releases the locked-up nutrients back to the plant. It turns potential rot into free fuel.
Media Recycling Powerhouse: If you reuse your LECA or Pon, this bottle is your best friend. It acts as a media recycling powerhouse with a superior mixture of enzymes that reinvigorates worn-out media.
Boost Nutrient Uptake: By keeping the root surface clean, it enhances nutrient absorption dramatically.
Stimulate New Growth: The breakdown process stimulates further root growth, ensuring your plant is constantly renewing its foundation for better overall performance.
How To Use
Root Feed: Add at a rate of 2.5ml per litre to your watering can or reservoir.
When to Use: Start applying as soon as you have potted your plant and use it continuously throughout both vegetative and flowering stages.
Compatibility: It is suitable for all types of growing media and is perfect for growers using active hydroponics or fertigation systems.
Pro-Tip: The "Refresh" Soak If you are planning to reuse your LECA pebbles or mineral mix for a new plant, don't just rinse them. Soak the media in a strong solution of ZenZym for a few days. It will help dissolve old organic matter stuck in the pores of the clay, giving your new plant a fresh, sterile start!
