What are Enzymes?
Enzymes are organic substances produced by beneficial microbes. They are made up of amino acids, proteins or RNA (closely associated with DNA). You obviously can’t see the substances any more than you can see the microbes that produce them. But you can definitely see the results of their presence.
Plants growing outside in fertile soil are surrounded by billions of microbes producing the enzymes that expand root mass and grow healthy plants.
These organic substances carry out specific chemical reactions which benefit plants by acting as catalysts, speeding up reactions and lowering the amount of energy required to do many activities of growing and blooming. Obviously, the more energy you can save your plant, the more energy your plants have for producing final blooms and fruits.
By understanding the necessity of balancing mineral applications and enzyme mixtures, the plants are able to absorb all the nutrients possible. This enables plants to grow to their highest genetic potential while reducing the waste and expense of excessive fertilizing.
In fertile soil, plants roots are surrounded by billions of beneficial micro-organisms, all producing enzymes. This is one of the reasons outdoor plants are able to grow so large.
By providing hydroponic plants with specific enzymes required during different stages of growth, you get the same explosive yields as growing outdoors. When these living, thriving, concentrated enzymes are applied to the root zone, they will reward you with an expansion of the root mass by as much as 700%.
How You Can Use Enzymes
Enzymes are a secret known to many successful growers for decades. These growers discovered how to unlock the true potential of their plants by providing concentrated blends of enzymes.
In the beginning it was pretty much hit and miss experimentation. But through years of trial and error, they discovered how to cultivate enzymes and apply them to their gardens.
In recent years, companies have taken up the isolation, testing, and cultivating of enzymes. After years of field testing and research, they have been able to determine what enzymes are needed and when, during the growing cycle. They have given their science labs the task of identifying different microbes and enzymes and how each affects a specific stage of growth or process inside the plant.
Questions You Should Consider Before Buying an Enzyme Product:
- Who actually manufactures the product? Is it outsourced to an outside company where the quality cannot be controlled and real identity of enzymes is uncertain?
- Have the enzymes been specially extracted in professional laboratories? If not, there can be no guarantee of their purity or vigor.
- Have the enzymes been tested with other product enzymes to make certain they work effectively together? Enzymes that tend to compete with one another, particularly in concentrated solutions, will weaken the overall quality of the product.
- Does the enzyme formula function at full-strength in a wide-range of pH and temperatures? If not, a shift in the environment can cause the enzymes to weaken and perhaps die. The answer to these questions isn’t always readily available. Obviously, a company that is outsourcing their product and failing to follow quality manufacturing procedures isn’t going to talk about it.
Why we recommend Advanced Nutrients Sensizym
- Advanced Nutrients owns and operates their own professional laboratories. Here scientists grow huge amounts of beneficial soil microbes. They ferment these microbes to get concentrated doses of enzymes which are tested individually and together to ensure maximum shelf-life, viability and effectiveness.
- Next, the enzymes are combined into a formula that assures that all the enzymes will work together effectively. Then the formula is tested to make certain it will function at full strength in a wide-range of pH and temperature.
- Finally, Advanced Nutrients prints their no-risk 100% money back guarantee on every Sensizym container.
