woah man thats not good. I saw Sumo, looks like a half decent range mate for the price. It will be the same as most others, may be more concentrated or not compared to Better Organix.Same old shit different day :) I was looking at the full range of the sumo products are u familiar with em and are they another Dutch master with all the patter and no real improvement I was looking at trying the full range and seeing how it goes would be awesome if at some point u could take a little look at what they are and what there claiming is in them I'm thinking there the same company as kaizen ballasts and we nearly had a couple of jobs up in flames through them fuckers
Not sure what Zen Yield is, some secret way of saying we keep the stomata guard cells open... no big deal, everything BOX do has some stimulate for guard cells. If you really want to increase yield, then use Nano Breathe mate, this will wipe out about 3 Shogun products in one, EG Calmag, boost and dragon force.
Simply keeping the guard cells open is no assurance of yield. For example, in times of extreme dryness, keeping stomata open is suicide. This action can only be used to our advantage if we can control relevant VPD ranges and so spurious marketing like 8% increase is only if you take account of perfect environmentals.
Sure keeping guard cells open will help hydraulic capacity, but closing them in dryness is a better option for overall plant health. Microbes modulate our plants in times of both Biotic and abiotic stress and make more sense to me, in light of the simple facts, plants and microbes have existed as partners forever mate, not plants and shogun, or even plants and BOX
Shogun dont want to say or cant say what it is they have in Zen Shield beause its nothing clever at all. Likely some potassium malate or other collection of suc. providing reduced carbon and so effecting opening and or closing, BOX contains the all important C14 mate that is most effective in this process. This enables a far higher rate of sugar uptake. Generally, sugar uptake into plant cells occurs in symport with protons (Bush, 1993). If a mechanism of this type also operates in guard cells, then sugar uptake in guard cell protoplasts should increase with decreasing pH and this my friend is why Nano Breathe is the shit and nothing these Shogun dudes have comes close I am 100% on that. Nano Breathe increases the rate of photon carrying capacity by 1/3, it does this while regulating guard cells and so maintaining the transcription factors for maximum sugar uptake. We can meet this sugar need with Bio Floret, we can tinler with Trichome density using Pro Biotic bacteria and fungus which stimulate ISR and SAR in plants see here for stomata and sugar uptake.

and here for trichomes and ISR JAR and SAR

The aqua thing is Yucca extract I suspect. Yucca is ok but it contains a sapponin which kills or delays root fungus. I wouldnt do this personally since root fungus offer a whole heap of secondary metabolites that nature has evolved over billions of years to gain benefit from, eg in reference to plant health, it is more likely any boost here is purely bacterially or fungally modulated,
