Organic Bloom Booster

Start Bloom Booster as soon as the first buds appear on your plant, not before. The spray contains Homobrassinolide (≥0.04% w/w), a growth compound that signals the plant to shift from leaf growth into flowering, so applying it too early wastes the trigger. Repeat every 10-15 days through the flowering season, and you should see more buds holding through to bloom within 2-3 applications.

Mix 0.5-1ml of Bloom Booster per litre of water, and stick to this range even if you want quicker flowering. Homobrassinolide works at very low concentrations, so this is a light, concentrated dose rather than a bulk nutrient feed; using more won't speed up flowering and isn't how the product is formulated to work. Shake the bottle well before every mix.

Yes, Bloom Booster is certified Safe for Edibles, 100% Organic and Chemical-Free, and the label lists tomatoes, chilli and cucumbers among its suitable crops. It's a foliar spray for the flowering and fruiting stage, so it's formulated specifically for edible fruiting vegetables as well as ornamentals like roses, hibiscus and bougainvillea.

Likely yes — bud drop is often a stress response where the plant abandons flowers it doesn't have the resources to finish. Bloom Booster's Homobrassinolide helps the plant hold on to buds it has already set and convert more of them into fruit, while also supporting general vigour so the flowering push doesn't drain the rest of the plant.

Spray it directly on the foliage and buds — Bloom Booster is a foliar product, not a soil feed, so it doesn't need to be watered into the root zone. Apply in the morning or evening and avoid spraying in harsh sunlight, since this affects absorption and can stress leaves.

Bloom Booster isn't a nutrient feed at all — it's a plant growth compound (Homobrassinolide, ≥0.04% w/w) that triggers the plant's own shift from leaf growth into flowering and helps it use existing nutrients more efficiently. An NPK fertilizer supplies raw nutrients; Bloom Booster works alongside one, specifically to boost bud retention, flowering and fruit set.

Bloom Booster suits flowering and fruiting plants generally, including roses, hibiscus, jasmine and bougainvillea, as well as fruiting vegetables like tomatoes, chilli and cucumbers. It works for both terrace garden plants and indoor flowering pots, applied once buds begin to appear.

Most growers notice visibly more buds holding through to bloom within 2-3 applications, spraying every 10-15 days. Since it works on the plant's own flowering signal rather than adding bulk nutrients, results build gradually over the flowering season rather than overnight.

Avoid inhaling the spray or letting it contact your skin during application, and keep the bottle out of reach of children. Beyond that, it's an organic, chemical-free formula safe for edible plants — the precautions are about the application process, not about toxicity of the product itself.

Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Once opened, use it within 6 months — shake well before every use since the concentrate can settle.
