Grow Boost
Grow Boost is an amplified vegetative growth promoter that drives canopy development, microbial activity and stress immunity. Seaweed extract and amino acids with magnesium and citric acid stimulate growth and resilience during the vegetative phase.

Pre-harvest and re-entry intervals are restrictions carried on pesticide labels. These products are not pesticides, so neither applies. For comparison, four hours is the shortest re-entry interval a registered pesticide can carry.
Amplified vegetative growth promoter from Vegalab Crop Science, powered by Seaweed extract · protein hydrolysate · citric acid · Mg sulfate. Grow Boost targets Vegetative growth, microbial activity, abiotic stress immunity.

Hydrolyzed proteins and amino acids enter the Krebs cycle directly, driving ATP production and accelerating vegetative growth. Plants put on biomass faster and reach productive stages earlier.

Why focus on the vegetative phase?
The size and health of the canopy a crop builds during vegetative growth sets the ceiling for everything that follows - light capture, photosynthesis and ultimately yield. A strong, resilient vegetative foundation means more capacity to fill fruit and recover from stress later, which is why supporting this phase pays off across the whole season.
How does Grow Boost drive growth?
Grow Boost (0-0-2; K 2%, amino acids 18%) combines seaweed extract, protein hydrolysate, citric acid and magnesium sulfate. Seaweed-derived phytohormones stimulate cell division and shoot growth, the amino acids supply ready building blocks and energy, and the blend supports soil microbial activity and abiotic-stress immunity - together building a stronger, more resilient canopy.

Always read and follow the applicable product label.
Apply foliar or to the soil during the vegetative phase, repeating through active growth to sustain canopy development and stress resilience. Applying around transplant and through early rapid growth, and ahead of known stress periods, makes the most of the biostimulant effect.
Which crops is it for?
Grow Boost has been tested on vegetables, vines, cereals and ornamentals - crops where strong early canopy and stress resilience translate directly into yield and quality. It suits both establishment and the main vegetative push.
How does it improve stress tolerance?
The amino acids and seaweed compounds in Grow Boost support the plant's own stress-response pathways and help maintain growth through heat, transplant shock and other stresses. Healthier microbial activity around the roots adds to that resilience, so the crop keeps developing rather than stalling under pressure.
