Advanced Nutrients Tasty Terpenes — Organic Bloom Booster for Denser, Stronger Flowering
Best for: Growers wanting to bulk their flowers properly whilst keeping the stalks strong enough to hold them
Our thoughts
This is what Advanced Nutrients do best — a straightforward organic additive that works across any system you're running. It's been around for years under the Nirvana name, and growers trust it because it delivers. Particularly good if you're after richer aromatic qualities without the synthetic approach.
Advanced Nutrients Tasty Terpenes (previously Nirvana) is an organic bloom booster and flowering additive designed to strengthen plant structure, boost yield, and enhance the aromatic profile of your crop during the mid-to-late flowering phase. Built on a foundation of potassium, kelp extract, alfalfa meal, bat guano, and amino acids, it's the kind of flowering stimulant that works with every major nutrient system out there — no compatibility headaches, no guesswork.
It does two things at once: thickens the stalks that support heavy flowering, and feeds the flowering response itself. That's a proper approach to bloom enhancement, not just chasing bulk on the cheap.
How it compares
Tasty Terpenes sits in the premium organic additive space, distinct from synthetic phosphorus-potassium boosters.
-
vs synthetic PK boosters (Signal, etc.): More balanced approach — strengthens structure alongside yield, uses organic ingredients, proven long-term track record
-
vs budget bloom boosters: Higher quality ingredient list (amino acids, kelp, bat guano), better stalk development, works with any base nutrient system
-
vs competitor organic options (BioBizz, etc.): Faster-acting liquid formula, broader hydroponic system compatibility, concentrated dosing means longer life per bottle
The difference comes down to this: you're getting organic, not synthetic, and you're getting structural integrity alongside the flower size. That's worth the price difference.
Usage guidance
Tasty Terpenes is simple to apply and works across all major growing systems.
Hydroponic systems (drip, NFT, flood & drain, DWC, aeroponics)
Add 2ml per litre of irrigation water from week 3 through week 7 of the flowering phase. Works cleanly in continuous-feed setups — no clogging, no settling issues.
Hand-fed or manual watering
Mix 2ml per litre into your feed solution. Apply at every watering during mid-to-late bloom. Compatible with all base nutrients — Advanced Nutrients or otherwise.
Foliar application
Can be applied as a foliar spray at half-strength (1ml per litre) during lights-off. Most growers stick to root feeding, but the option's there.
Timing matters
Start from week 3 of flowering onwards. This is when your plants are committing energy to structure and flower development — exactly when Tasty Terpenes does its work best. Don't bother before week 3; the plant isn't ready to respond to it.

Who this is for
- Growers running hydroponic or hand-fed systems who want to bulk flowers without compromising stalk strength
- Anyone using Advanced Nutrients base nutrients looking to round out their feeding program
- Experienced growers switching to organic additives without losing performance
- Operators running multi-plant setups where structural integrity directly impacts harvest quality
- Growers chasing better aromatic profiles and harvest quality, not just raw weight
Particularly well suited to mid-sized operations where consistency and reliability matter more than low-cost shortcuts.
Our take
This is an organic bloom booster with real pedigree. It's been working for growers worldwide for over 20 years (you might know it as Nirvana), and the rebranding to Tasty Terpenes doesn't change what it does — which is strengthen your plants whilst pushing yield up.
The dual approach — stalk support plus flowering response — sets it apart from the one-dimensional PK boosters. You're not just bulking flowers; you're building plants that can actually support that bulk. That's proper growing, and it's why growers stick with it.
Works with every major nutrient line out there, applies at a sensible 2ml/L rate, and costs less than the premium branded alternatives. Good time to buy while stock lasts.
