Get Your Bloom On with These Incredible Nutrients
It’s almost time to start transitioning your plants to the flowering phase, and that means a shift in their nutritional needs. While plants in the vegetative stage require a lot of nitrogen and moderate potassium and phosphorus, plants that have started to bloom require less nitrogen and more phosphorus and potassium to support flower and fruit development.
It’s best practice to pivot your feeding schedule along with your plants’ changing needs, which is why we’ve collected an assortment of bloom-boosting fertilizers and supplements to supercharge your plants and ensure a successful flowering stage and an awesome harvest.
Bloom nutrients, like flowers, come in many shapes and sizes. At GardenTap, we only suggest the very best products that we love to use ourselves!
Take a look at our favorite Bloom Boosting nutrients:

That’s where Liquid Weight comes in, giving your plants and beneficial microbes in the soil a carbohydrate food source that results in larger, high-quality yields
Karbo Boost
Your plants work hard when flowering and fruiting and they need the extra energy that comes from Karbo Boost.

Less work for your plants, so they can focus on producing quality flowers and yields.
Horti-rawK
Your plants need an energy boost to produce the larger buds and flowers you’re looking for, and Horti-rawK is a one-of-a-kind additive. It provides a large potassium dose, resulting in stronger, healthier plants that will support heavy fruiting and flowering. Your plants will look like they’ve been in their own weight training program.
Rezin
If aromatic flowers and full-flavored fruits are your growing goal, Rezin amplifies natural processes and increases essential oil and resin production in your plants. Yummmm.
