INTENSE PK Phite Phosphite Flowering Additive

🌱 INTENSE PK Phite Phosphite Flowering Additive — Guide and Product Information

Overview

INTENSE PK Phite is a flowering additive developed for use during the bloom phase, using phosphite rather than standard phosphate-based PK supplementation. According to the manufacturer, this allows the formula to be more easily absorbed and more mobile within the plant, making it a practical choice for growers refining their flowering feed schedule.

As part of the Nutrients and Boosters range at Acorn Horticulture, PK Phite is intended to complement a base nutrient programme rather than replace it.

🌿 Why use INTENSE PK Phite during flowering?

During flowering, plants typically need careful PK support to help drive bloom development. INTENSE PK Phite is formulated specifically for this stage and is used from the end of week three in flowering. Its phosphite-based composition is designed for efficient movement within the plant, helping growers introduce targeted bloom support when demand increases.

The product description also states that INTENSE PK Phite has anti-fungal properties and may help guard against issues such as powdery mildew, leafspot fungus and botrytis as part of a well-managed growing environment. Good airflow and environmental control remain important, and for more advice you can read our guide to preventing mould and mildew in your grow tent.

📦 Available Options and Sizes

INTENSE PK Phite is a variable product with the following size options:

• ✔ 1L
• ✔ 5L
• ✔ 10L

The smaller option can suit personal grow spaces and trial runs, while larger sizes may be more convenient for regular feeding schedules or larger garden setups.

🌼 Suitable applications

INTENSE PK Phite is suitable for flowering-stage feeding where a grower wants to add a dedicated PK supplement to an established nutrient regime. It can be used in hydroponic and general horticultural feeding programmes where liquid nutrient additives are measured per litre of water.

🧪 Setup and Usage Tips

Use INTENSE PK Phite at 1-2ml per litre of water from the end of week three in the flowering period. Start at the lower rate if you are introducing it into a new feeding schedule, then adjust carefully within the recommended range according to plant response and the rest of your nutrient programme.

Always measure accurately, mix thoroughly and avoid overcomplicating your feed chart with too many overlapping bloom additives. Environmental control also plays a major role in flower quality, so for further reading you may find our article on boosting plant nutrition with advanced grow kit techniques useful.
