Why Choose Honey Chome® – Quart

Honey Chome® is formulated specifically to intensify fragrance and flavor in crops during their flowering phase. Here is what sets it apart from a basic bloom booster:

• Resin and aroma enrichment during flowering: The formulation is built around the goal of producing a more robust fragrance and increased resin content in flowering crops. Rather than being a broad-spectrum fertilizer, Honey Chome® targets the flowering stage specifically, adding supplemental N, P, and K to support crop potency and productivity when the plant needs them most.
• Natural carbohydrate sources: Honey Chome® contains carbohydrates derived from palm sugar and agave nectar. These provide a reserve of energy and sweetness in the upper plant canopy, supporting vigorous flowering rather than relying on synthetic sugars or synthetic sweeteners.
• Root-zone microbial support: The carbohydrates in the formulation also serve as a food source for beneficial microbes in the root zone. Microbial inoculants in the root zone assist the plant in building root mass, which in turn improves nutrient uptake and supports more satisfyingly abundant growth and flowering over the course of the flowering cycle.
• Fits within the Emerald Harvest system: Honey Chome® is designed to complement the broader Emerald Harvest® line of base nutrients and additives. It is intended to be used alongside a base nutrient program, not as a standalone feed, making it straightforward to incorporate into an existing nutrient schedule without overhauling your approach.

For growers who want to enhance flavor and aroma profiles in flowering crops without switching their entire nutrient program, Honey Chome® offers a targeted supplement that fits into established feeding schedules.

Best Uses for Honey Chome® – Quart

Honey Chome® is most effective when applied during the flowering phase of plants that produce aromatic or resinous outputs. It is not a vegetative-stage product and is not intended as a standalone base nutrient.

• Flowering phase supplementation: The primary application is adding Honey Chome® to a reservoir or foliar tank during the bloom stage. Growers looking to intensify the fragrance and resin profile of their crops can add it alongside their existing base nutrients when plants enter full flowering.
• Feeding beneficial root-zone microbes: Because the natural carbohydrates (palm sugar and agave nectar) serve as a substrate for microbial populations in the root zone, Honey Chome® works well in systems where beneficial bacteria and fungi are actively inoculated. If you are running a living root zone – whether in soil, coco, or a lightly amended hydroponic system – the carbohydrate content provides the microbial food supply that helps those organisms proliferate.
• Root mass development support: The improved microbial activity in the root zone that Honey Chome® supports leads to greater root mass, which in turn improves overall nutrient uptake. Growers seeing sluggish canopy development late in the flowering cycle may find that supporting the root-zone biology with a carbohydrate supplement helps drive more vigorous late-stage growth.
• Pairing with a full-spectrum bloom booster: Honey Chome® is not a phosphorus-heavy bloom booster on its own. It works best when paired with a complete base nutrient that includes the full complement of macronutrients and micronutrients. If you are already using something like the Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Part A or a comparable bloom base, adding Honey Chome® as a supplemental additive is the intended use case.

Honey Chome® vs Similar Flowering Supplements

Honey Chome® occupies the resin-and-aroma-enricher category of bloom additives. There are a number of products in this space, typically differentiated by their carbohydrate sources and their balance of supplemental NPK versus sugars or amino acids.

Products in this category generally fall into two types: those that use simple sugars (such as sucrose or molasses) primarily as a microbial food source, and those that combine a carbohydrate base with supplemental macronutrients. Honey Chome® sits in the second group, providing N, P, and K alongside natural carbohydrates from palm sugar and agave nectar. The benefit of this approach is that the supplemental macronutrients can support plant productivity (not just microbial activity) during the flowering phase.

If you are evaluating Honey Chome® against a molasses-only additive or a plain carbohydrate supplement, the key question is whether you want the supplemental NPK included in your flowering additive, or whether you would rather dial in macronutrient levels exclusively through your base nutrient and keep additives as pure carbohydrate or amino acid sources. Honey Chome® bundles both functions into a single bottle, which can simplify a nutrient schedule while still supporting the root-zone microbiology and resin production goals of the flowering phase.

If you are looking at grow-environment infrastructure that pairs with a flowering additive program, a properly dialed-in grow space – such as the Grow Shop Outlet 48x48x78 grow tent – helps create the stable temperature and humidity conditions that allow carbohydrate-based flowering additives to perform predictably across the whole flowering cycle.

Compatibility

Honey Chome® is a liquid concentrate formulated to be mixed into a nutrient reservoir or a foliar-spray solution. It is designed to be used with the Emerald Harvest® line of base nutrients but can generally be incorporated into other nutrient programs.

Growing media: Honey Chome® is suitable for use in soil, coco coir, and lightly buffered hydroponic media. The carbohydrate content makes it particularly well-suited for living root-zone setups where beneficial microorganisms are already active, because the palm sugar and agave nectar carbohydrates serve as a direct food source for those organisms. In inert hydroponic systems (such as deep water culture or nutrient film technique), the carbohydrate portion still reaches the plant but the microbial benefit is reduced unless the system is deliberately inoculated with beneficial bacteria or fungi.

Nutrient system compatibility: As an additive, Honey Chome® is designed to stack on top of an established base nutrient program. It is not a standalone fertilizer. Growers should continue running their base nutrient at the manufacturer-recommended dose and add Honey Chome® as a supplement during the flowering phase. Consult the Emerald Harvest feeding chart for recommended dose rates when combining Honey Chome® with other Emerald Harvest® products.

Lighting: Honey Chome® does not have specific lighting requirements, but resin and aroma development in flowering crops is generally enhanced by adequate light intensity during the flowering phase. If you are running a 600W ceramic HPS grow light bulb or equivalent, ensuring your canopy is receiving adequate intensity across the flowering period will support the aroma and resin outcomes that Honey Chome® is designed to amplify.

pH range: As with all liquid nutrient additives, the final solution pH should be adjusted after mixing all nutrients and additives to the appropriate range for your growing medium (typically 5.8–6.2 for hydroponic or coco applications, 6.0–6.8 for soil). Manufacturer-published pH range data specific to Honey Chome® is not available in the supplier documentation; follow standard pH adjustment practice for your medium.

Dosing Guidelines

Honey Chome® is a concentrated liquid additive and should be measured carefully. The following guidelines are based on standard practice for flowering-phase additives of this type. Refer to the Emerald Harvest® feeding chart available on the manufacturer’s website for product-specific dose rates, as published rates vary by growth stage and by how many other Emerald Harvest products are being used concurrently.

• Application phase: Add Honey Chome® to your nutrient solution during the flowering phase only. It is not formulated for vegetative-stage use.
• Measurement: Use a calibrated syringe or measuring cup to dispense the correct volume. Do not estimate. For small-batch mixing (per gallon or per litre), a graduated 5 mL or 10 mL syringe provides the precision needed for concentrated additives.
• Mixing order: Add Honey Chome® to a reservoir that already contains your base nutrients, then top off with pH-adjusted water. Mix thoroughly before checking EC and pH.
• EC target: After adding Honey Chome®, check the total EC of the solution against your target range for the flowering stage and your specific crop. If EC rises above your target, reduce the base nutrient dose proportionally rather than omitting the additive. Consult the Emerald Harvest feeding chart for recommended EC windows by week.
• Frequency: Honey Chome® is typically applied at each reservoir change during the flowering phase. If you change your reservoir on a weekly cycle, add Honey Chome® with each fresh batch. Monitor plant response and adjust as needed based on canopy appearance, aroma development, and runoff EC readings.

How to Use Honey Chome®

The steps below describe the standard process for adding Honey Chome® to a recirculating or drain-to-waste nutrient solution during the flowering phase. Steps are based on the generic nutrient supplement protocol for liquid concentrates; always cross-reference with the Emerald Harvest® feeding chart for dose specifics.

1. Prepare your base solution first. Fill your reservoir or mixing container with the appropriate volume of water. Add your base nutrient components (Part A and Part B, or equivalent) at the manufacturer-recommended dose rates. Mix thoroughly.
2. Shake Honey Chome® before measuring. Like most carbohydrate-based liquid supplements, Honey Chome® should be shaken or gently stirred before dispensing to ensure any settled material is fully suspended. Do not skip this step.
3. Measure and add Honey Chome®. Using a calibrated syringe or measuring cup, measure the appropriate dose of Honey Chome® per gallon or litre of solution. Add it to the reservoir containing your base nutrients. Refer to the Emerald Harvest® feeding schedule for dose rates specific to your crop and growth week.
4. Add any remaining additives. If you are using other supplements (silica, CalMag, enzymes, etc.), add them in the correct order per your nutrient schedule. As a general rule, silica is added first, then base nutrients, then additives.
5. Adjust pH. After all nutrients and additives are mixed, check the pH of the final solution. Adjust with a pH up or pH down solution to bring the mix within the target range for your growing medium: 5.8–6.2 for hydroponic and coco applications, 6.0–6.8 for soil.
6. Check EC. Measure the electrical conductivity of the final solution and compare against your target EC for the current growth week. If EC is above target, dilute with plain pH-adjusted water. Do not simply leave EC elevated, as this can stress flowering plants.
7. Feed or circulate as normal. Deliver the prepared solution to your plants via your standard irrigation method – whether that is a top-feed drip system, recirculating deep water culture, or hand-watering. Monitor plants over the following 24–48 hours for signs of nutrient stress.
8. Clean equipment after use. Rinse measuring equipment thoroughly with clean water after each use to prevent carbohydrate residue from building up and attracting pests or causing contamination in future batches.
