Unlock peak flowering performance without compromising reservoir stability with SHOGUN Sumo Active Boost. Engineered explicitly as the high-tech successor to the original Sumo Boost, this professional-grade biostimulant delivers identical, heavyweight yield-boosting properties while remaining completely clear, stable, and fresh in hydroponic tanks for up to 14 days.

While traditional seaweed-based additives work wonders for plant growth, they are notorious for fermenting, foaming, and fouling lines when left in recirculating systems. SHOGUN solved this by altering the extraction architecture. By utilising a specialised cold-pressing method to harvest natural triacontanol and key signaling lipids from marine plants, Sumo Active Boost delivers maximum metabolic stimulation without any of the organic degradation common in active hydroponics.

Core Cultivation Advantages:

  • 14-Day Reservoir Stability: Specially formulated to resist fermentation, biological breakdown, and line blockages. It stays entirely stable and active within recirculating reservoirs, making it the ultimate choice for automated or long-turnover systems.

  • Triacontanol Powered Metabolism: Driven by naturally extracted triacontanol—a potent phyto-hormone found in the waxy cuticles of leaves. When delivered directly to the root zone, it rapidly increases the plant's internal synthesis of sugars, proteins, and essential oils.

  • Advanced Cellular Elongation: Packed with naturally preserved auxins that drive physical cell division and longitudinal elongation. This results in highly advanced shoot growth, stronger vascular pathways, and structural floral sites capable of carrying heavier yields.

  • Canopy & Chlorophyll Expansion: Fortified with clean cytokinins, the essential plant regulators responsible for controlling leaf formation and accelerating chlorophyll synthesis. This expands the functional leaf canopy, maximising light capture and upregulating overall photosynthetic capacity.

  • System Cleanliness & Defence: Unlike raw organic extracts that feed harmful biofilm and pathogen populations, this clean formulation helps maintain a sterile, free-flowing irrigation system while encouraging natural crop resistance against pathogenic bacteria and fungi.

Application Target & Timing

SHOGUN Sumo Active Boost is a dedicated flowering biostimulant engineered specifically for active, automated, and recirculating hydroponic configurations, though it functions perfectly across all growing media.

Application Target Treatment Type System Integration
Active Hydroponic Crops Continuous Reservoir Additive Perfect match for active recirculating configurations, including NFT (Nutrient Film Technique), DWC / Bubblers, Flood & Drain, and automated Run-to-Waste lines.
Targeted Biostimulation Optional Foliar Spray Can be diluted and applied as a fine canopy mist less frequently for direct leaf-tissue absorption.

Step-by-Step Usage Instructions:

 

1.Establish your baseline reservoir:Preparation.

Fill your hydroponic reservoir with fresh water and add your base bloom nutrients (e.g., Samurai Hydro Bloom A&B). Ensure your solution is thoroughly mixed and verify your baseline EC and pH levels.

2.Incorporate Sumo Active Boost by week:Root Feeding Dosage.

Apply continuously throughout the blooming stage based on a standard 9-week flowering schedule. Dilute using the following precise rates per litre of reservoir water:

  • Weeks 1–6 (Early to Mid Bloom): 2ml per litre

  • Week 7 (Late Bloom): 1.5ml per litre

  • Week 8 (Ripening / Hardening): 1ml per litre

  • Final Week (Flush): Pure water only; do not apply additives.

    (Note: For longer flowering varieties, simply extend the mid-flowering dosing rate around weeks 4–5).

3.Monitor your automated system:Maintenance.

Because the formulation is engineered for extreme stability, you can allow it to recirculate safely for up to 14 days before a full reservoir change out is required. It will not cause foaming, line blockages, or emitter clogging.
