How does HYSHIELD™ work?
HYSHIELD™ contains a high molecular weight chitosan which acts as a slow-release capsule, offering long-lasting support for the plant throughout the entire grow cycle. HYSHIELD™ provides an invisible shield to the root zone and foliage which strengthens with every application. Most effective when used from seed germination or cloning, and applied as a foliar through veg, switching to root drench application in flower.

BOOST
HYSHIELD™ boosts the plant’s immune system, which enhances conditions for better plant growth and can help increase your yield.
UNLOCK
HYSHIELD™ pushes your plant to the next level, unlocking its true potential in potency and growth.
