Foundation Powder

Foundation Powder is the calcium and nitrogen base of the Scietetics three-bag commercial program. At 15-0-0 with 2 percent magnesium, it supplies the calcium nitrate side of the feed and is used in equal parts with Development Powder in vegetative growth or Production Powder in bloom.

Built for modern irrigation strategies, Foundation runs in stock tanks at 2 lb per gallon of water, keeping concentrates separate, with a recommended starting injection ratio of 757:1. Foundation and Development at 757:1 give about 1.2 EC, and Foundation and Production about 1.1 EC. In batch tanks, 3 grams per gallon adds about 0.9 EC.
