Athena Pro Mix Kit

What's in the Kit

The PRO-MIX-2.5G contains three 5 lb pre-measured pouches — one each of Pro Core (the dual-phase calcium and micronutrient base, NPK 14-0-0), Pro Grow (the vegetative-phase fertilizer, NPK 2-8-20), and Pro Bloom (the flowering-phase fertilizer, NPK 0-12-24) — along with three individually labeled 2.5-gallon mixing bottles. Each bottle carries a fill-line graduation and a twist-off cap fitted with a dispensing spigot, so you pour concentrate cleanly into a dosing vessel or reservoir without transferring containers.

The concentrate procedure is straightforward: fill the bottle halfway with RO or filtered water, pour in the entire pouch, shake until no clumps remain, top off to the 2.5-gallon mark, and shake again for one to two minutes. Each product gets its own dedicated bottle — Core, Grow, and Bloom concentrates are never combined until they hit the feed water.

Why Concentrate-First Matters at Commercial Scale

Weighing dry powders directly into a batch tank introduces batch-to-batch variance. Even small weighing errors shift the calcium-to-nitrogen ratio or the phosphorus-to-potassium ratio enough to show up as subtle deficiencies over a multi-week run. Athena's pre-measured 5 lb pouches eliminate that variable — the entire pouch goes into the matching bottle, and the fill line sets the concentration. Every stock tank pull comes off the same concentrate, so your EC targets are repeatable across rooms, shifts, and operators.

For operations running Dosatron injectors, Netaflex, Rhythm, or gravity-fed stock tanks, the 2.5-gallon bottle with a spigot integrates cleanly. Measure out the dose, inject or pour into the feed line, and move on. There is no residue and no sediment — the mineral-only, fully soluble formulation leaves irrigation drip lines and emitters clear.

The Pro Line Program — Two Parts Per Phase

Pro Core is the backbone run throughout the entire cycle — veg and flower. It supplies 14% nitrogen, 17% calcium, magnesium, and a micronutrient package (iron DTPA, manganese EDTA, copper EDTA, zinc EDTA, boron, molybdenum) that supports enzyme production, chlorophyll synthesis, and plant structure. Pro Grow pairs with Core during the vegetative phase (typically two to three weeks), delivering a balanced NPK profile with elevated nitrogen for root establishment and canopy development.

At the transition to flower, Pro Grow is swapped for Pro Bloom, which runs for the full flowering phase (typically eight to nine weeks). Pro Bloom supplies phosphorus and potassium alongside sulfur — the sulfur fraction supports terpene and secondary metabolite production without requiring separate PK boosters. The ratio for mixing is documented on Athena's published feed schedule: for every 0.6 g of Pro Core, use 1 g of Pro Grow or Pro Bloom to hit the target EC. The constant-EC feeding model means you dial in an EC and adjust irrigation frequency rather than ramping and tapering nutrient concentration.

Who This Kit Is For

The 2.5-gallon kit is sized for licensed cannabis and hemp operations transitioning to the Pro Line program, operators onboarding a new room or facility, or cultivation teams that want to standardize on the concentrate workflow before scaling to bulk 10 lb and 25 lb refill boxes. It works across all substrate types — coco coir, rockwool, perlite-amended media, and hydroponic systems — and is equally suited to drain-to-waste, recirculating, and fertigation setups.

Athena Pro Line was developed in partnership with Jungle Boys and manufactured in-house by Athena Ag (Los Angeles, CA) under ISO 9001 quality management. The formulation is synthetic mineral — no organics, no enzymes, no sugars — which keeps the feed water clean and test-ready. Once you work through the starter pouches, the 10 lb Pro Line refill boxes (sold separately) slot directly into the same mixing workflow with the same bottles.
