For Best Results
Jack's 20-20-20 is considered the industry standard of general-purpose fertilizers by professional growers. This product work great with a combination with Jack’s Classic Blossom Booster giving your plants greener, large leaves, more flowers and brighter colors.
Jack's Fertilizers are made with 100% soluble raw materials that will form a true solution.
For best results, use warm or hot water (180 F°) to dissolve product. Some raw materials are slower to dissolve than others. Most fertilizer compounds dissolve in an endothermic reaction, which means they absorb heat from their surroundings during the process. In strong concentrations or stock solutions (1-3+ lbs. per gallon) using cold water in a cold environment will drastically slow the dissolving process (up to 24 hours to form a true solution). In all conditions, agitation will help speed up the dissolving process by exposing more particle surface area to the water.
