1 From The Original Creator Of The Revolutionary One Part Mix For Hydroponics And They Said It Couldn t Be Done GUIDE TO GROWING MEDICAL GRADE PLANTS
2 ABOUT THIS GUIDE, I have developed this guide to provide you with IMPORTANT information to put you on the path to growing clean, trouble free MEDICAL GRADE plants. This guide will focus on the key elements necessary to achieve consistent high performance gardening. This guide will build the ground work for growers seeking MEDICAL GRADE quality and demanding optimal results. These guidelines will create new STANDARDS in a highly unregulated industry, plagued with misinformation and marketing tactics. Misleading information thriving today promotes difficult hurdles and confusion for growers to maintain consistently high quality results. From extensive years of research, I found when using only the PUREST VIRGIN SOURCED CLEAN EARTH ELEMENTS combined with dry water-soluble HIGH QUALITY PURIFIED MINERALS & MICRO NUTRIENTS with no contaminants or fillers, could I then produce the healthiest, pure disease free plants from seed to harvest. This use of higher quality PURE EARTH elements combined with high quality purified minerals, contributes to the many known and unknown aspects of extremely complex cellular physiological activities. It is the fusion of the two that allows these complex natural cellular processes to still take place in a controlled environment. SUPERNATURAL BRAND products commitment for purity and MEDICAL GRADE gardening has been our vision from the company s beginning. SUPERNATURAL BRAND products carry all the ingredients for MEDICAL GRADE plants with no need for additives. TERRAPONICS, a maximum growth performance method, is based solely on CLEAN EARTH principals. It consists of only PURE VIRGIN SOURCED CLEAN EARTH ELEMENTS. It does not contain or is not derived from any animal, cell culture, waste or by-product derived ingredients. TERRAPONICS combines all the best benefits of hydroponics with pure earth elements to achieve outstanding success. TERRAPONICS growth method produces superior results with higher nutrition & quality levels that cannot be found with simple conventional growing techniques. When Success Is Measured By Purity & Performance, TERRAPONICS Growth Method Will Give You All The Confidence & Quality You Demand.

4 MEDICAL GRADE GROWTH MEDIUM ELEMENTS (NO FILLERS NO PRESERVATIVES NO WASTE PRODUCTS) Research shows that STERILE PURE VIRGIN SOURCED CLEAN EARTH ELEMENTS are by far the best choice for MEDICAL GRADE gardening. They are easily controlled and maintain their stability throughout the growth cycle. They also contain a long list of plant food additives that are occurring naturally. This allows many complex natural physiological cellular processes to take place at the molecular level that cannot be reproduced with off the shelf additives and conventional gardening techniques. HUMIC MOSS Humic Moss contains natural anti-bacterial properties and is completely sterile. Humic Moss contains both humic & fulvic acids. It s an excellent medium for seedlings. Our SUPERNATURAL BRAND humic bog is quite unique. It contains all the naturally occurring properties including; high calcium & carbon content, essential nutrients, vitamins & trace elements. Humic moss greatly enhances fertility and plant biomass. PERLITE SUPERNATURAL BRAND perlite is sterile, odorless, lightweight and disease free. It s inorganic and will not deteriorate. Perlite makes moisture and nutrients readily available to plants. It insulates the growth medium against extreme temperature swings. Perlite is essentially neutral, with a ph of 6.5 to 7.5. LEONARDITE (BROWN COAL ) SUPERNATURAL BRAND BROWN COAL leonardite contains high humic acid levels. One kg of leonardite contains the same amount as 7-8 metric tons of manure. Humic acid increases physical, biological & chemical effects on fertility and plant growth by optimizing nutrient supply to your plants. DIATOMACEOUS EARTH Diatomaceous earth reduces the leaching of nitrates, phosphate & potassium. SUPERNATURAL BRAND diatomaceous earth contains just enough soluble silica essential to plants to help improve disease resistance. Being very porous, it retains 150% of its weight in water. Diatomaceous earth allows air to reach the root zone. VERMICULITE SUPERNATURAL BRAND vermiculite is sterile, odorless and nontoxic. Vermiculite will not mold or rot. It s very absorbent to essential nutrients like ammonium, calcium, potassium & magnesium.
5 GROWTH MEDIUM ELEMENTS TO AVOID (NON MEDICAL GRADE) WASTE MATERIALS Completely avoid animal waste, compost, cell culture, or by-product derived ingredients. Avoid any use of sawdust & wood chip fillers. Many fillers in soil & soil less mixes contain toxins and bacteria that promote diseases of many types. They all can harbor and promote bacterial infestations. PLASTICS Avoid any use of non-food grade plastics throughout the system including pots, trays & reservoirs. ROOTING GEL HORMONES The use of any gels for rooting is not a good idea. These gels create a low oxygen environment at the root zone which encourages root rot. All gel formulations contain growth inhibiting preservatives. Rooting gels are claiming superiority, by sealing the cutting preventing an air embolism. This statement is not true. How many failures have you had due to an air embolism? It would never be an issue, if you always use very sharp scissors. Don t pinch the stem and place the cutting into moist medium. MATERIALS TO USE WITH CAUTION CLAY PELLETS - Must be sterile. Disease may spread rapidly when using a return feeding system. No elemental value. ROCK WOOL - Disease may spread rapidly using a return feeding system. Rock wool has no elemental value. COCO - Disease may spread rapidly using a return feeding system. Difficult to control and leach. Waste product. PEA GRAVEL - Must be sterile. Disease may spread rapidly using a return feeding system. Pea gravel is Inert. ROCK - Disease may spread rapidly using a return feeding system. Rock has no elemental value. SPHAGNUM MOSS - Holds too much water & dries quickly. Sphagnum moss is difficult to leach. No value except as filler. PEAT PELLETS - Holds too much water and dries quickly. Peat pellets are difficult to leach and have no value except as filler. *NOTE - When using an inert growth medium with no elemental value, many additives must be added to the nutrient solution. Many additives contain growth inhibiting preservatives to maintain shelf life.
6 SUPERNATURAL BRAND MEDICAL GRADE NUTRIENTS SUPERNATURAL BRAND HIGH QUALITY PURIFIED MINERALS Contain All Of The Pure Essential Nutrients, Vitamins & Trace Elements For Optimal Control And Superior Quality For maximum results, use REGULATED and REGISTERED highly water-soluble HIGH QUALITY PURIFIED MINERALS & MICRO NUTRIENTS. With easy dosage control, water-soluble minerals flush easily from any growth medium. Finely powdered pure minerals & micro nutrients are most effective when mixed fresh. Freshly mixed pure high quality nutrients contain higher oxygen levels critical to plant growth. Dry minerals & micro nutrients are stable and nonreactive. This allows for longer shelf life and the addition of many more beneficial components to the formula compared to liquid fertilizers. Being nonreactive when dry, they need none of the growth inhibiting preservatives that liquid fertilizers do. Pure minerals make nutrients available at lower TDS levels. ULTRA PURE SUPERNATURAL BRAND powdered nutrients provides your plants with unsurpassed nutrition at 1/3 the strength of most liquid formulas. Powdered minerals & elements are most effective when mixed fresh. When dissolved in water, there is no sediment. You can see the purity for yourself. NUTRIENTS TO AVOID (NON MEDICAL GRADE) Do not use any low quality fertilizers or nutrients with non-plant food additives and preservatives. Many bottled liquid plant fertilizers contain preservatives and impurities that inhibit plant growth. Many concentrated liquid fertilizers contain low grade minerals, containing many impurities. By premixing low grade minerals into a liquid concentrate (when their dissolved with water before it is bottled) allows the chance to filter out most of the insoluble impurities. The soluble impurities present, creates residue and adds to higher TDS recommendations to the formula. Bottled liquid concentrate fertilizers are limited formulas, and quality declines with shelf life.
7 Brian s Horticultural Passion, I have had a lifelong passion for growing the best plants possible. To produce a method that provides plants with optimal conditions. My extensive research has revealed the many naturally occurring complex processes taking place at the cellular level, many of which we don t understand and simply cannot reproduce. I found the results I was looking for when I combined these naturally occurring PURE VIRGIN SOURCED CLEAN EARTH ELEMENTS with HIGH QUALITY PURIFIED MINERALS & TRACE ELEMENTS. My TERRAPONICS growth method gave me the strongest, largest and highest quality plants ever. It has always been a great joy helping people learn to grow the cleanest, most nutritious plants possible. That is my goal here. The SUPERNATURAL BRAND TERRAPONICS growth method is my personal favorite. TERRAPONICS is the only way to grow for MEDICAL GRADE because it s the only method that uses all PURE VIRGIN SOURCED CLEAN EARTH ELEMENTS with no fillers, preservatives or waste products in both the growth medium and the nutrients. Designed for ease of use, TERRAPONICS growers consistently achieve superior results. No need for expensive liquid additives containing unhealthy growth inhibiting preservatives added to extend product shelf life. Grow clean, highly nutritious plants whose quality will astound you. Once you try the TERRAPONICS growth method I am confident that you will never switch again. I strongly encourage you to take advantage of the results of my years of effort, the TERRAPONICS growth method. Sincerely, Brian Franczuz LICENSED MEDICAL GROWERS ASSOCIATION President Creator of SUPERNATURAL BRAND

9 INSECTICIDE FUNGICIDE ANTI MOLD ANTI MILDEW FOLIAR FEED Mix your own fresh MEDICAL GRADE INSECTICIDE FUNGICIDE ANTI MOLD ANTI MILDEW FOLIAR FEED all in one plant food spray with no preservatives or harmful chemicals. Insects cannot develop any resistance, and works at all stages of insect development. During the egg stage it blocks the normal exchange of gases by interfering with the egg surface structure. After they hatch it works against them in two ways. By blocking the respiration and by destroying the insects outer shell or cuticle. You can control infestations or disease safely while making your plants healthier. Use this mixture as a supplement & preventative, or strengthen components to attack specific problems. Mix each of the ingredients into 4 Liters (1 Gal) of water 1 tablespoon SUPERNATURAL BRAND Castile Soap 1 teaspoon SUPERNATURAL BRAND Soy Oil. Up to 1½ teaspoons to attack insects and egg problems 1 tablespoon of SUPERNATURAL BRAND Potassium Bicarbonate. Up to 2 tablespoons to attack mold and mildew problems ¼ teaspoon of SUPERNATURAL BRAND plant food Vegetative Stage - ¼ teaspoon GRO-TERRA Flowering Stage - ¼ teaspoon BLOOM-TERRA Rooting Stage - ¼ teaspoon SUPERBOOST HOW TO USE Apply spray once a week as a preventative & supplement. Spray with water after every second application to dissolve any unused nutrients and to clean residue for respiration. Use at first sign and as often as necessary to combat against any insects, mould or mildew problems. Apply a fine spray over entire plant thoroughly, especially targeting the tips, undersides of the leaves and internodes. Do not use in environments over 85, especially when increasing the oil to attack insect infestations. It s a good idea to test it on a few plants first before spraying the entire crop.
