Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice

Product detailed description

Voodoo Juice is a microbial root stimulant from Advanced Nutrients for growers who want to build a strong root system right from the start. It supplies the root zone with live beneficial bacteria that colonise it and expand its functional area.

What bacteria do in the roots

Voodoo Juice contains four selected strains of bacilli: Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus licheniformis and Paenibacillus polymyxa. They colonise the root zone and increase its surface area, thereby improving nutrient and water uptake. In addition, they fix atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form, dissolve inorganic phosphates and support mycorrhizal and rhizobial symbiosis. The roots therefore have easier access to nutrients that would otherwise remain bound.

When and how much to dose

Use Voodoo Juice at the start of each phase, specifically during the first two weeks of vegetative growth and the first two weeks of flowering, always at a dose of 2 ml per litre. The start is precisely the moment when the root structure is established, so timely application makes the most sense. It works in hydroponics, aeroponics and coco, and is compatible with all base fertilisers.

When and with what to use it

Voodoo Juice forms the so-called Root Mass Expanders trio together with the fungal Piranha and the bacterial Tarantula. Each product targets a different function of the root zone, and the manufacturer recommends combining them. If you want all three effects in one dose, there is also a tablet form, Voodoo Juice Plus. Voodoo Juice runs alongside your base nutrition, for example pH Perfect Sensi Grow A+B.

Frequently asked questions

When should Voodoo Juice be used?
Voodoo Juice is applied at the start of each phase, i.e. during the first two weeks of vegetative growth and the first two weeks of flowering, always at 2 ml per litre. This is when the plant establishes and rebuilds its root system, so the bacteria have room to work. Outside these periods, the product is not used because root colonisation has already taken place.

What is the difference between Voodoo Juice, Piranha and Tarantula?
Each targets a different component of the root microflora. Voodoo Juice supplies four strains of bacteria, Piranha brings beneficial fungi and mycorrhiza, and Tarantula adds further bacterial strains. Together they form the Root Mass Expanders trio, and the manufacturer recommends using them together because they complement each other’s functions rather than replace them.

Can I use Voodoo Juice in coco?
Yes. Voodoo Juice works in hydroponics, aeroponics and coco substrate, and is compatible with all base fertilisers from Advanced Nutrients and competitors. Add it directly to the nutrient solution at a dose of 2 ml per litre during the first two weeks of vegetative growth and flowering. The live bacteria colonise the root zone regardless of the medium chosen.
