Terra Aquatica Pro Roots 60 ml
Terra Aquatica Pro Roots 60 ml is an organic root stimulant for cuttings, seedlings and freshly transplanted plants. The dose is low: 0.2 ml per litre of nutrient solution, which works out at 2 ml per 10 litres. One 60 ml bottle therefore makes up around 300 litres. The manufacturer advises fifteen days of use, then switching to Terra Aquatica Fulvic. Pro Roots suits soil, coco, hydroponics and bioponics; shake well before use. For foliar application the rate halves to 0.1 ml per litre, roughly two drops. The formulation is fully organic and made in Fleurance, in the Gers. Add it once base nutrients are mixed and the EC is set.
Terra Aquatica Pro Roots 60 ml – organic root stimulant for cuttings and seedlings

The dose sits at 0.2 ml per litre of nutrient solution, or 2 ml per 10 litres, so one bottle covers roughly 300 litres. The manufacturer advises fifteen days of application, then Fulvic.

Why the dose is so low
Pro Roots is heavily concentrated, which makes dosing the main thing to get right with this product. 0.2 ml per litre is far below what a typical additive calls for, where a few millilitres per litre is the norm. The common error is applying that habit here: 2 ml per litre instead of 2 ml per 10 litres, a factor of ten out. Measure with a syringe or a dosing cap rather than by eye. For foliar use the rate halves to 0.1 ml per litre, roughly two drops, and is best applied with the lights off or dimmed.
What the manufacturer claims
Terra Aquatica describes the action on three fronts: increased rootlet production, faster root development, and hardening of the root cap. That last point is why the product is used on cuttings: according to the manufacturer, a tougher root cap goes together with better resistance to mould, damping off included. The formulation is fully organic and production takes place in Fleurance, in the Gers. Worth stating what Pro Roots is not: a stimulant, neither a base nutrient nor a plant protection product. It is added to an existing schedule rather than replacing part of one.
Where it sits in the schedule
- Starting point: as soon as cuttings show first roots, seeds germinate or plants come out of a transplant
- Fifteen days of use, then over to Terra Aquatica Fulvic for fine root hair development
- Order in the reservoir: mix base nutrients and set EC first, and only then add Pro Roots
- Shake the bottle before every use — an organic formulation settles out
Through veg, Terra Aquatica Silicate reinforces cell walls; at the transition into bloom, Terra Aquatica Pro Bloom 60 ml is the counterpart in the same line. The full range sits in the Terra Aquatica category. Shipped from Belgium throughout the Benelux via plantandflower.be.
How much solution does Terra Aquatica Pro Roots 60 ml make?
At the specified 0.2 ml per litre, a 60 ml bottle covers around 300 litres of nutrient solution. Since the product is only used for fifteen days per round, one bottle typically lasts several cycles in an indoor setup. Store it cool and dark in that case, and shake before every use.
How long should it be used, and what comes after?
The manufacturer specifies fifteen days, counted from taking the cutting, sowing or transplanting. After that the schedule moves to Terra Aquatica Fulvic, which targets fine root hairs rather than initial root formation. Continuing with Pro Roots beyond that window adds nothing the plant needs at that stage.
Can it be combined with base nutrients from another brand?
Yes. Pro Roots is a stimulant rather than a feed, so it replaces no part of a schedule and does not clash with one. Mix base nutrients first, set the EC, then add Pro Roots. In coco and hydroponics, keep an eye on pH exactly as you would otherwise.
Pro Roots or Fulvic — which one when?
They follow one another in the same schedule rather than competing. Pro Roots belongs to the first fortnight: root formation on a cutting, seedling or transplanted plant. Fulvic takes over afterwards, aimed at fine root hairs and nutrient uptake. Anyone buying only one of the two starts at the beginning of the cycle.
