Plant Magic Hydro A&B — Two-Part Hydroponic Base Nutrient for All Growing Stages
Best for: Hydroponic growers wanting a complete, balanced mineral base nutrient that works across all system types without fussing
Our thoughts
Plant Magic Hydro A&B is a proper, straightforward two-part hydro base that's been delivering consistent results for years. It's specifically formulated for UK hard and soft water, includes premium humates for root development and microbial activity, and mixes cleanly without the headaches you get from some premium feeds. One we recommend a lot for growers wanting reliable, hassle-free nutrition.
Plant Magic Hydro A&B is a concentrated two-part mineral-based nutrient solution designed specifically for hydroponic growing systems. Developed by PhD-level biochemists, this base nutrient supplies everything plants need—macro and micronutrients, calcium, magnesium, and premium-grade humates—throughout both the growth and flowering cycles, without unnecessary complexity or aggressive formulations.
The two-part system keeps nutrients stable in solution, prevents nutrient lockout, and ensures precise nutrient delivery at every stage. It's built for consistency, clean mixing, and proven results across NFT, DWC, flood and drain, and other recirculating hydroponic systems.

Usage guidance
Mixing your nutrient solution
Plant Magic Hydro A&B is highly concentrated. Use at 2–4ml per litre of water, depending on your plant stage and system. Always add equal amounts of part A and part B—never use one part alone or in unequal ratios, or your nutrient balance will be off.
Step-by-step mixing
Add part A to your water first, mix thoroughly, then add part B in equal volume. Both parts are designed to work together. Check your EC and pH before feeding—hydro systems respond best to controlled, consistent inputs.
Suitable for all major hydroponic systems
Works cleanly in NFT, Deep Water Culture (DWC), flood and drain, and drip irrigation setups. Equally effective in run-to-waste and recirculating systems.
Throughout your growing cycle
Apply from early growth right through to late flowering, stopping only at the final flush stage. The balanced nutrient profile supports healthy foliage development and strong, quality flowering.
Monitoring and adjustment
Keep your EC and pH in range for your system type. Hydroponic growing gives you precise control—the payoff is that consistency matters. Monitor regularly and adjust feeding only if needed. Plant Magic is formulated to stay stable in solution without locking out or creating deficiencies.
