🌼 Grower Tip from The Grow Guys:
Run Fade alongside Athena Pro Bloom for the last 2–3 weeks and watch your flower quality shine like never before. This is what peak performance looks like 😎

🧪 How to Use Athena Fade
📆 When: Use during the final 3 weeks of flower
💧 Rate: Add 10–16 mL per gallon of water

📌 Best Practices:

• Shake it like it owes you money 💪

• Use clean measuring tools (keep that bottle pristine)

• Monitor EC and adjust as your bloom develops

• pH your mix after all nutes are added

• Never mix concentrates together undiluted (Fade’s chill, but not that chill)

• Store between 45–85°F in original packaging

📚 Advanced Use – For The Grow Nerds
While not officially listed in the SOP (Standard Operating Procedure), some facilities use Athena Fade in the blended line as follows:

🧪 Blended Line Fade Procedure:

• Final 2 weeks: Drop CalMag & Bloom A/B

• Run Fade with PK & Cleanse

• 1 week: Equal parts Fade & PK to hit 1.8 EC

• Next 4 days: Dial it down to 0.9 EC

• Last 3 days: Just straight RO water 💦

⚠️ Note from The Grow Guys: This isn’t official advice, but it’s out there in the field. Do your own research or test small before committing!
