Byron Bay Gold is an all-in-one nutrient solution that was developed by Michael Agius, a pioneer in hydroponic farming who has been involved in the industry for over 40 years. Michael's experience and expertise in hydroponic farming led him to develop a unique nutrient solution that simplifies the growing process, reduces costs, and guarantees great results.
Hydroponic farming is a method of growing plants in a soil-free environment, where the plants receive their nutrients from a nutrient solution that is delivered directly to their roots. Hydroponics is a highly efficient and sustainable way of farming that has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous benefits. One of the main advantages of hydroponic farming is the precise control it gives over plant nutrition, which is essential for plant growth and quality. However, the complexity and cost of nutrient solutions can be a significant barrier for many hydroponic farmers, which is where Byron Bay Gold comes in.
The Origins of Byron Bay Gold
Byron Bay Gold's origins date back to 1980 when Joe and Michael Agius started growing a range of different crops using hydroponics. At the time, hydroponics was a virtually unheard of technology and was not being utilised by commercial farmers in Australia. The limited available information required the pair to undertake lots of their own research and development, which over time allowed them to build significant expertise in understanding the nutrient needs of various crop types.
After selling the farm in 1987, the duo shifted to consultancy and went on to help farmers around the world establish their own hydroponic farms. While successful in spreading hydroponics across the globe, Michael decided to open his own hydroponic supplies store in 1999, near the old farm, so he wouldn't have to travel regularly away from his family.
The Birth of Byron Bay Gold
After many years of helping local farmers and hobbyists in the Byron area, Michael saw many struggle with hydroponic nutrient additives, which improve the performance of crops, but added significant cost and complexity to the process. To solve this problem, Michael determined a way of adding many of these additives into the nutrient solution he formulated. The resulting solution split the growing cycle into three parts (VEG, FLOWER & FRUIT) which both reduced the complexity and cost of growing crops hydroponically.
Michael decided to name his revolutionary product Byron Bay Gold, a homage to the area in which he and his father developed their understanding of hydroponics and the results achieved by local customers who reported it to be the best nutrient solution ever made.

FAQ About Byron Bay Gold
Why are there A&B parts to Byron Bay Gold Nutrients?
Byron Bay Gold Nutrients are separated into A&B parts to prevent the highly concentrated elements from reacting and canceling each other out. It's essential to use the two parts in the correct ratio to ensure optimal plant growth. To mix the nutrient, we recommend half-filling the reservoir with water before adding the nutrient solution, then adding the remaining water to create a well-mixed solution.
What is the ideal Water Temperature?
The ideal water temperature for plant growth is between 15ºC and 25ºC, with 20ºC being the sweet spot. Water temperature above 25ºC can increase the risk of root disease in plants. If your plants have been exposed to water at high temperatures, we recommend using a root conditioner to reduce the risk of damage.
What is the ideal Grow Room Temperature?
The ideal grow room temperature is between 15ºC and 25ºC, with a room temperature of 15ºC being the safest option. However, grow rooms can reach up to a temperature of 30ºC as long as the water temperature remains under 25ºC. It's crucial to maintain a consistent temperature in the grow room to avoid any adverse effects on the plants.
Can Byron Bay Gold Nutrients be used in soil?
Yes, Byron Bay Gold Nutrients work exceptionally well in the ground and with various soil types. However, the levels of the different elements found in the formula of the nutrient can vary in different soils. We recommend using a half-strength dose with regular water or a full-strength dose every third water to ensure optimal results. Many successful farms are using Byron Bay Gold Nutrients in soil, and the results are equally as good as with hydroponic growers.
Can I use Additives with Byron Bay Gold Nutrient?
While it's not necessary, additives can be used with Byron Bay Gold Nutrient. Our nutrient is formulated to be complete in each stage of plant growth, ensuring a more controlled release for optimal timing. Adding other additives may not be needed and can be a more costly approach to nutrient application.
What is the Shelf-Life of Byron Bay Gold?
Byron Bay Gold Nutrient has a very long shelf-life and has been tested up to five years with no difference in analysis. To ensure the longevity of the nutrient, it's essential to keep it at a cool temperature to avoid any potential for growth.
