Nutrifield Ripe-N – Late Flower Finishing Nutrient
$23.00 inc. GST
Nutrifield Ripe-N is a specialised finishing nutrient designed for the final weeks of flowering. It reduces nitrogen pressure while maintaining essential finishing minerals, helping plants transition naturally into ripening and achieve more uniform maturation and a clean, controlled finish. Suitable for hydroponics, coco and soil.
Full product description
Nutrifield Ripe-N is a precision finishing nutrient developed specifically for the final stage of flowering, when plants naturally begin shifting away from vegetative growth and towards flower maturation and ripening.
Unlike simply continuing a high-nitrogen base nutrient right through to harvest, or abruptly removing nutrition altogether, Ripe-N provides a more controlled approach to finishing your crop.
During late flowering, a plant's demand for nitrogen decreases significantly. Excess nitrogen at this stage can encourage continued leafy, vegetative growth when the plant should instead be directing its resources towards completing flower development and maturation.
Nutrifield Ripe-N is formulated to reduce nitrogen and excess magnesium while maintaining important minerals including calcium, potassium, sulphur and essential micronutrients. This allows the plant to remain metabolically supported while naturally progressing through its final ripening phase.
Why Use Nutrifield Ripe-N?
Ripe-N is designed to help growers achieve a more controlled and predictable finish by:
- Reducing unnecessary nitrogen during late flowering
- Limiting unwanted late vegetative growth
- Encouraging resources to be directed towards flower maturation
- Supporting a natural transition into senescence
- Maintaining essential finishing minerals
- Supporting metabolic activity through the final flowering stage
- Encouraging more uniform maturation across the canopy
- Helping achieve a cleaner, more consistent finish
- Reducing the nutritional shock associated with suddenly removing nutrients
Nutrifield describes Ripe-N as the final finishing stage of its Signature flowering program, following PK Heavy for flower formation and Crystalic for flower expression and density.
When to Use Nutrifield Ripe-N
Introduce Ripe-N during the final weeks of flowering, once the main bulking stage has finished and plants begin showing natural signs of maturation.
These may include:
- Slower overall growth
- Increasing flower maturity
- Natural colour changes
- Increasing aromatic or essential-oil expression
- Reduced demand for vegetative growth
Hyalite describes the final two to three weeks before harvest as the key finishing window where Ripe-N may be incorporated, although exact timing should always be adjusted according to the crop and overall feeding program.
How to Use
During the finishing stage:
Use Nutrifield Ripe-N in place of your regular base nutrient, rather than simply adding it on top of the normal base feed.
Mix into your nutrient solution according to the current Nutrifield feed chart and product label instructions for your growing system.
Because I couldn't verify a manufacturer-published universal mL/L rate from the current online documentation, I would not put a guessed dosage on your Richo's product page. Nutrifield provides its Signature feed chart through its official Plant Enhancer range information.
Suitable For
Hydroponics | Coco | Soil
Ripe-N can integrate into Nutrifield programs as well as other nutrient programs, making it suitable as a standalone finishing tool regardless of the base nutrient line being used.
