The Grow 1 component of the Advanced Hydroponics Dutch Formula three-part nutrient system, formulated to support strong, healthy vegetative plant development.

Advanced Hydroponics Dutch Formula Grow is the first component in the Dutch Formula Grow, Bloom and Micro nutrient system. It plays its biggest role during vegetative growth, when plants are establishing the leaves, stems and overall structure needed to support the next stage of development.

Dutch Formula takes a flexible three-part approach to plant nutrition. Grow 1, Bloom 2 and Micro 3 are combined in changing proportions as plants develop, allowing the balance of the nutrient solution to shift from vegetative growth towards flowering without changing to a completely separate nutrient range.

Grow 1 is used alongside Bloom 2 and Micro 3 throughout vegetative growth and into the early flowering period. It is suitable for hydroponics, coco, soil and other growing media, making Dutch Formula a versatile base nutrient programme for a wide range of growing methods.

Why choose Dutch Formula Grow?

  • Part 1 of the Dutch Formula system – designed to work alongside Bloom 2 and Micro 3.
  • Developed for vegetative growth – supports the stage when plants are building healthy leaves, stems and structure.
  • Continues into early flowering – Grow is gradually reduced rather than being removed as soon as flowering begins.
  • Flexible three-part nutrition – adjust the balance of Grow, Bloom and Micro as plant requirements change.
  • Suitable for different growing media – use across hydroponics, coco and soil-based growing.
  • Concentrated liquid nutrient – straightforward to measure and incorporate into the working nutrient solution.
  • 10 litre size – a practical format for growers regularly preparing larger quantities of feed.

How Grow 1 fits into the Dutch Formula system

Dutch Formula consists of three base nutrient components: Grow 1, Bloom 2 and Micro 3. All three work together, but the proportion of each component changes as plants progress through their life cycle.

During vegetative growth, Grow forms the largest proportion of the programme. This is the period when plants are concentrating on producing healthy foliage and building the structural growth needed to support later flower and fruit production.

Grow remains part of the programme during the transition into flowering, but its contribution is gradually reduced as the proportion of Bloom increases. Advanced Hydroponics recommends stopping Grow approximately 21 to 30 days after plants have entered the flowering phase.

From that point, the later flowering programme relies on Bloom and Micro rather than continuing to supply Grow throughout the entire bloom cycle.

How to use Dutch Formula Grow

Shake the container thoroughly before use. Measure Dutch Formula Grow according to the current stage of plant development and add it to water as part of the complete Grow, Bloom and Micro feeding programme.

Grow is typically used at approximately 1 to 2ml per litre during the vegetative programme. Its concentration is then reduced as plants move into flowering before Grow is removed from the programme approximately 21 to 30 days into the flowering phase.

Dutch Formula Grow, Bloom and Micro should each be added separately to the water. Mix the solution thoroughly after adding one component before measuring and adding the next.

Do not combine the concentrated Grow, Bloom and Micro products directly with one another. Once all required components have been diluted and thoroughly mixed, check the final nutrient solution and make any adjustments required for the crop and growing system.

Advanced Hydroponics Dutch Formula Grow FAQs

What is Dutch Formula Grow?

Dutch Formula Grow is the first component of the Advanced Hydroponics of Holland three-part base nutrient system. It is primarily used during vegetative growth alongside Dutch Formula Bloom 2 and Micro 3.

Is Dutch Formula Grow a complete nutrient?

Grow 1 forms one part of the three-component Dutch Formula programme. It is designed to be combined with Bloom 2 and Micro 3 in proportions suited to the current stage of plant development.

When should I use Dutch Formula Grow?

Grow is used throughout vegetative development and continues into the early flowering stage. Its contribution is reduced as flowering progresses before it is removed from the programme.

How much Dutch Formula Grow should I use?

Dutch Formula Grow is typically used at approximately 1 to 2ml per litre during vegetative growth as part of the complete Grow, Bloom and Micro feeding programme. The amount is reduced as plants progress into flowering.

When should I stop using Dutch Formula Grow?

Advanced Hydroponics recommends stopping Grow approximately 21 to 30 days after plants have entered the flowering phase. Bloom and Micro then form the remaining Dutch Formula base nutrient programme.

Can Dutch Formula Grow be used in hydroponics?

Yes. Dutch Formula is suitable for hydroponic growing and is designed to create a balanced mineral nutrient solution when the three components are used together.

Can Dutch Formula Grow be used in coco?

Yes. Dutch Formula can be used with coco as well as hydroponic systems and soil-based growing.

Can Dutch Formula Grow be used in soil?

Yes. Advanced Hydroponics states that the Dutch Formula programme is suitable for all kinds of growing media, including soil.

Can Dutch Formula Grow, Bloom and Micro be mixed together?

All three components form part of the final nutrient solution, but they should be added separately to the water and mixed thoroughly between additions. Do not combine the concentrated products directly with one another.

What are Dutch Formula Grow 1, Bloom 2 and Micro 3?

They are the three components of the Advanced Hydroponics Dutch Formula base nutrient system. Grow is primarily associated with vegetative development, Bloom becomes increasingly important during flowering, and Micro supplies the micronutrient component of the programme.
