1 REVOLUTIONARY SUGAR BASED PLANT FOOD SYSTEM

2 EASY AS 1-2-3

3 DRIVE OUT WASTE WITH SIMPLIFIED SUGAR BASED PLANT FOOD PROGRAM Seed/Clones Vegetative Flower Reload Soil BASED ON USING A LIGHT SOIL GROW MEDIUM ORANGE FORMULA PINK FORMULA GREEN FORMULA AQUA FORMULA CLEAR FORMULA PURPLE FORMULA

4 THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF PLANT LIFE Average Element Makeup of Plants Sugar Elements Percent C Carbon 45 % H Hydrogen 6 % O Oxygen 45 % Total C,H,O 96.5 % All NPK Elements Percent N Nitrogen 1.5 K Potassium 1 Ca Calcium 0.5 Mg Magnesium 0.2 P Phosphate 0.2 S Sulfur 0.1 Other %

5 CRITICAL ELEMENTS IN PHOTOSYNTHETIC ENERGY Energy is stored as balanced carbon compounds Carbohydrates Fats & Lipids Proteins Active Carbon is Carbon Hydrogen,& Oxygen C,H,O C,H,O C,H,O,N C.H.O.

6 USDA BIO-PREFERRED PROGRAM SGS ORIGNINAL CHO Plant Foods are Biobased BIO-BASED PRODUCTS DERIVED FROM PLANTS AND OTHER RENEWABLE AGRICULTURAL, MARINE, AND FORESTRY MATERIALS AND PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE TO CONVENTIONAL PETROLEUM DERIVED PRODUCTS.

7 ORIGINAL CHO SUGAR GEL Pink Formula gel is designed for professional horticulture cloning. Apply gel to the cutting and plant. Invigorate weaker clones to create more uniform growth Increased root vigor Super quick root development CLONING CUTTINGS

8 ORIGINAL CHO ORANGE FORMULA Orange Formula is a low ph, plant-derived liquid seed treatment formulated to increase seed vigor, encourage root activity and enhance water and nutrition absorption. It quickly absorbs into each seed and invigorates weaker seeds and clones. As a result, the root and plant development of each seed is more uniform, as is the overall grow in weaker areas of the canopy. Invigorate weaker clones to create more uniform growth Increased root vigor Buffer the impact of transplantation SEEDS & CLONES

9 LIVING AEROBIC MICROBES Green & Orange Formula s are inoculated with living microbes before use. The microbes are co-packaged in a separate small activator bottles. Orignial CHO inoculant activators have over 400 unique aerobic microbes which together produce vital sugars the plants need. Microbes feed off energized bio-activated carbon and amazingly like humans also breath in oxygen in result their respiration also produces natural CO2. Together the living soil process produces a never ending enzyme factory for roots to thrive under.

10 ORIGINAL CHO AQUA FORMULA Aqua Formula is a bio-based conditioner designed to adjust ph of water and other liquid solutions applied to plants and to buffer against salty or alkaline soils. Traditional fertilizers build up salts in soils and water which hardens them. These salty and high ph (alkaline) conditions restrict root growth and photosynthesis which reduces yields. Molecular oxygen Helps free minerals and nutrients for plants Reduces evaporation loss WATERING

11 ORIGINAL CHO GREEN FORMULA Green Formula bio-active liquid plant food treatment is used for soil, hydro or foliar feeding on plants to increase vigor and provide an optimal environment for continued root development. The formula is inoculated with living microbes before use. The microbes are co-packaged in a separate small activator bottle. The microbes are important because they produce sugars the plants need. PLANT FOOD

12 ORIGINAL CHO CLEAR FORMULA FEED PLANTS ABOVE THE SOIL SGS ORIGIANL CHO CLEAR Formula s clear based spray mx is designed to boost the nutritional uptake in your plants leaves & stocks. The foliar spray application helps plants absorb more carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. For best results foliar spray Clear CHO on your leaves and stocks 1-2 times per week. Foliar Application

13 PLANT FOOD NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENT When sugars are not enough When using a light soil mix and Original CHO complete plant nutrition system the soil grow medium does not require any additional nutrient supplements. This is due to the soil already having enough trace nutrients and minerals to make up the needed 3.5% nutrients that plants need. When using an ALL hydro or aero system then sugars need to be supplemented with nutrients. Aeroponics & Hydro Nutrient Supplement

14 ORIGINAL CHO PURPLE FORMULA Purple Formula is a water and soil treatment to remediate or recondition potting media after harvest. The Purple Formula enables growers to reuse soil after applying this treatment. The product introduces key bacteria and enzymes which quickly remove solid waste, chemicals, salts and odor while lowering ph. PERPEPTUAL SOIL Overtime, carbon dioxide is emitted as a natural byproduct of the bacterial action which conditions the soil BETTER each time.

15 INCREASE QUALITY & REDUCE COST Total plant food used per grow cycle is an important metric when driving down your cost per unit of crop production. Smart Grow s Original CHO complete plant nutrition GOAL is to help legal cannabis growers to produce one pound of dry cannabis for $200 or less. Average cost for commercial-scale growers using Original CHO (255 gallon totes) is approximately $ to produce one pound of dry cannabis in a 12 week grow cycle. Not only is a plant nutrition regimen of Original CHO less expensive than other (NPK) heavy options, it will also reduce water and other costs especially when using the vertical Sea of Green grow method. Original CHO is USDA Biopreferred
