Description

Grotek Solo-Tek Bloom™ is a nutrient suspension and one-part bloom fertilizer for flower and fruit development, designed as a streamlined one-part base nutrient for productive flowering gardens.

This formula is built around optimized nutrient ratios that support prolific flowering and fruiting, while staying simple for day-to-day feeding. Solo-Tek Bloom™ is also positioned as highly effective as a stand-alone fertilizer, which makes it a clean option when you want a single-part bloom nutrient that still covers core plant nutrition through the bloom cycle.

A key feature of Solo-Tek Bloom™ is that it enhances nutrient availability, helping plants access what they need more efficiently as demand rises during flowering. The proprietary Solo-Tek formulation is described as extremely concentrated, which supports strong performance without relying on a multi-bottle base. High levels of humic acid are highlighted for increased nutrient availability, with added support for beneficial biology in the root zone.

Solo-Tek Bloom™ is listed for both vegetative and flowering phases, which supports a smoother handoff into bloom for plants that are still building structure while they begin to set flowers and fruit. The nutrient profile is described as supporting flower development and growth while improving yield, with high levels of calcium supporting strong plant structure and heavy development. Added micronutrients are included to support higher yield and improved crop vigor, keeping plants steadier through the high-demand bloom window.

The NPK is 3-8-8, giving this one-part bloom fertilizer a bloom-forward profile that aligns with flower and fruit development. Key inputs include calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, monopotassium phosphate, magnesium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, and chelated iron (iron EDTA), which together support a complete base nutrient approach in a single nutrient suspension.

Solo-Tek Bloom™ is compatible with hydroponics and soilless (peat/coco) systems, and it was designed to benefit media where cation exchange plays a role, including peat and coco coir. This is a good fit for growers who want an easy-to-use, highly concentrated one-part bloom nutrient that supports nutrient availability, strong plant structure, and consistent flower and fruit development in modern soilless or hydro setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does available phosphoric acid (P₂O₅) do for plants, and how is it different from available phosphate?

Available phosphoric acid provides a fast-absorbing form of phosphorus that fuels root growth, energy transfer, and strong flowering. It becomes part of the plant’s total available phosphate supply, but the two terms are not the same—available phosphoric acid is one source of phosphorus, while available phosphate refers to the entire pool of plant-available phosphorus overall.

Why do growers use calcium nitrate instead of other calcium sources?

Calcium nitrate is important because it supplies calcium in a fast, highly available form that supports strong new growth and healthy root tips, while also providing nitrate nitrogen for steady, usable growth energy. It’s unique because it delivers calcium together with nitrate nitrogen, making it especially effective during rapid growth phases when plants need both structure-building calcium and immediately available nitrogen at the same time.

Why is chelated iron important for plants, and what makes it different from other iron sources?

Chelated iron is important because it keeps iron usable for plants even when growing conditions would normally lock iron out, helping prevent the classic yellow-new-leaf symptom caused by low chlorophyll production. It is unique from other iron sources because the chelation protects iron from becoming insoluble, making it a more reliable way to correct iron-related chlorosis when regular iron can fail.

Why is EDTA chelation important for plant nutrition, and what makes it unique?

EDTA chelation is important because it helps key micronutrients stay dissolved and available for roots instead of reacting, precipitating, or becoming locked out, which prevents common deficiency symptoms like pale new growth. It’s unique because it offers dependable micronutrient stability in mildly acidic growing conditions, making it especially useful for consistent feeding when pH is already well-managed.

Why is soluble potash (K2O) important for plants?

Soluble potash (K2O) is important because it helps plants control water use, move sugars to new growth and fruit, and build stronger, higher-quality structure under stress. It’s unique from many other nutrients because it acts more like a regulator and transport helper than a direct “building material,” so the biggest benefits show up as steadier growth, stronger stems, and better finishing instead of just bigger leaves.

Why is sulfur (S) important for plant growth?

Sulfur is important because plants need it to build key amino acids and proteins that drive real growth, strong structure, and efficient use of nitrogen, making it uniquely different from “look-alike” nutrients that may change leaf color without supporting the plant’s core building process.

Why is total calcium (Ca) important for plant growth, and what makes it different from other nutrients?

Total calcium is important because it builds strong cell walls and supports healthy new growth, roots, and overall plant stability. It’s unique because plants can’t easily move calcium from old leaves to new growth, so calcium problems show up first at the tips and newest leaves when delivery through water movement and transpiration falls behind.

Why is total magnesium (Mg) important for plant growth?

Total magnesium is important because magnesium powers chlorophyll and energy use, helping plants stay green, turn light into growth, and use other nutrients efficiently—and it’s unique because its problems often come from nutrient balance and uptake competition, not just a simple shortage.

Why is total nitrogen (N) important for plant growth, and what makes it different from other nutrients?

Total Nitrogen is important because it directly drives leafy growth, chlorophyll production, and overall growth speed, which sets the pace for the entire plant. It’s unique because the “total” number can include different nitrogen forms that behave differently in the root zone, meaning the same total amount can produce very different results depending on the nitrogen type and plant stage.

What makes iron EDTA effective for fixing pale new leaves?

Iron EDTA keeps iron dissolved and available long enough for roots to absorb it, which is why it can quickly improve new growth color when iron is tied up in the root zone. It’s unique because the EDTA chelate balances stability and accessibility, making iron more reliably usable in mildly acidic to near-neutral conditions compared to many non-chelated iron forms.

What does magnesium sulfate do for plants?

Magnesium sulfate supplies magnesium for chlorophyll and sugar movement plus sulfur for protein building, helping plants stay efficient and green during high-demand growth. It’s unique because it adds magnesium without extra nitrogen or calcium, so it corrects magnesium issues with fewer side effects when balance is the real goal.

What does monopotassium phosphate do for flowering plants?

Monopotassium phosphate provides fast phosphorus and potassium that support energy use, nutrient flow, and bloom development without adding nitrogen, so it helps flowering progress cleanly without pushing extra leafy growth. It’s unique because it delivers a focused PK boost in a highly soluble form, which can correct stage-related demand quickly, but it must be used carefully to avoid potassium-heavy imbalances that can block calcium and magnesium uptake.

Is potassium nitrate better for quick deficiency correction than other potassium sources?

Potassium nitrate is often better for quick correction when the plant needs both potassium and fast nitrate nitrogen, because it dissolves cleanly and is taken up quickly, unlike potassium sources that don’t supply nitrogen. It’s unique because it can restore leaf color and growth momentum while also improving water regulation, but it can backfire if nitrogen is already high or if salt levels are already stressing the roots.
