Know before you buy
Tarantula introduces beneficial microbes into your root zone. These microbes work to break down nutrients into a more accessible form, helping your plants absorb them more efficiently for better overall health.
Yes, Tarantula is designed for use in various hydroponic systems, including drip irrigation, NFT, and deep water culture. Because it is a liquid concentrate, it integrates smoothly into continuous liquid-feed systems without causing blockages.
While Tarantula uses natural sources for its microbial formula, it is not officially organic certified. It is, however, a highly effective additive for enhancing root zone biology in any hydroponic setup.
No, Tarantula is a specialized additive, not a complete fertilizer. You should continue using your primary nutrient program alongside it to ensure your plants receive all the necessary macronutrients.
By populating the root zone with beneficial microbes, Tarantula creates a healthier environment that encourages more robust root growth. A stronger, more extensive root system allows the plant to take up water and nutrients more effectively throughout the growth cycle.
