A Specialty Nutrient Additive Created
With Cultivators In Mind, Enhancing Deep Purples, Rich Hues, Increased
Potency, & Sweeter Flavors
What Is Purpinator?
Purpinator
is a specialty nutrient additive formulated to deliver increased
flavonoid, terpenoid, and resin production in your plants. In addition
to these benefits, Purpinator will improve the coloration of plants with
purple phenotypes. Much like its predecessor, Terpinator, Purpinator
activates the metabolic pathways terpene production in plants by
providing the building blocks for these processes. Purpinator will also
regulate the pH of the cell sap in plant vacuoles, resulting in a more
neutral pH in cell sap which yields increased purple coloration
expressed in the plant.
What Are Flavonoids?
Flavonoids
are a diverse group of phytonutrients found in almost all fruits and
vegetables; these are the group of plant metabolites that is widely
credited with being the reason fruits and vegetable are so good for you;
flavonoids are attributed with a reduced risk of cancer, heart disease,
asthma, and stroke. Some of the groups of flavonoids found in plants
are anthocyanidins, flavanols, flavones, flavonols, flavonones and
isoflavones. Each of these flavonoids has its own distinct set of
actions, benefits and originating foods.
Why Use Purpinator?
Purpinator
was designed to specifically improve the color production of cultivars
with purple phenotypes, terpene, and resin production while also
addressing the additional nutrient requirements for those processes in
the plant. Traditional methods for improving purple coloration can
involve cold temperature treatments, which can be costly or
inconvenient, especially in greenhouse environments; Purpinator
eliminates the need for these treatments by enhancing the plant’s
ability to produce color influencing compounds. Purpinator contains no
plant growth regulators, no heavy metals, and can be easily incorporated
into any pre-existing nutrient regimen, making it a truly versatile
product that any grower can bring on with ease.
How Purpinator Works
Purpinator
provides the correct amount of magnesium for chlorophyll development.
As magnesium is the central atom of the chlorophyll molecule, the
proportion of magnesium available to plants is dependent on the supply
of magnesium. In the plant leaves the plant’s mature epidermal cells
contain about 15% chloroplasts, cytoplasm/cell wall 5%, and the vacuole
85%. By regulating the epidermal cell’s vacuoles pH and magnesium
content, anthocyanin production can be increased providing more color to
the plant’s phenotype.
Light
stimulates the formation of flavonoids in many plants. The most
effective wavelengths are blue and red. Purpinator will provide the
building blocks for flavonoid production and combined with blue light in
the range of 400-500 nm, will produce more flavonoid compounds. This
range is referred to as the action spectra for pigment production.
What Purpinator Does
Increased Potency
The
‘entourage effect’ and the general effect of terpenes on human behavior
has long been studied. With increased capacity and numbers, pollen
sites will produce more secondary metabolites and terpenes for a more
potent finished product. These valuable compounds are stored within the
walls of the gland sites and make for a more potent finished product.
Improved Color
Purpinator
facilitates the production of anthocyanin compounds and other
flavonoids, which improve the expression of phenotypic characteristics
such as purple coloration in capable cultivars. This improves the final
bag appeal of finished product and sets your plants out from the rest.
Enhance Aromatics & Flavors
Terpenes
and other secondary metabolites are directly responsible for the
aromatic and flavor profiles of your plants. Purpinator enhances your
plants natural terpene profile for improved concentration of terpenes
and terpenoids, resulting in improved aroma and flavor in finished
product.
How to Use:
Purpinator
can be deployed in any growing system and is designed to be used as a
root drench for your soil, coco, or hydroponic growing media. Purpinator
is not intended for use as a foliar spray. Combine with blue-light
treatments in the 400-500nm spectrum to improve anthocyanin production.
Purpinator
won’t burn plants when used as directed, and can be used with any
growing media, hydroponic system, and nutrient program. PURPINATOR is at
the correct pH for hydroponic use.
