The well-known Algoflash fertilizer brand offers a “medicinal and aromatic plants” range in France. In other words, three products which, despite the best efforts of the marketing team not to reveal too much about the real target, are clearly intended for weed cultivation. The (discreet) conquest of homegrowing in France?
In France, it is illegal to germinate hemp seeds. This provision of the penal code does not prevent the country from having tens of thousands of illegal growers. From the student with three plans in a closet, to the forty-something who grows his own organic weed in Provence, to the gang of buddies who’d make a mint on a free smoke, the micro-production market has never counted so many customers. Algoflash intends to penetrate this astounding botanical market with three products. Three essentials covering the ABCs of cannabic cultivation: a growth fertilizer, a flowering fertilizer and a light potting soil. A quick look at the visuals and the technical data sheet leaves no doubt: the aptly named Algoflash and its garden gnome are aimed at the budding homegrower!

On the label, the promising growth fertilizer promises vigorous stems and dense foliage… forget thyme and chives, savory or dill.
