Description of Grotek Organics Vital
CALCIUM FERTILIZER
Vital™ improves nutrient conditions to increase plant vigor and assist in times of peak growth. It also optimizes conditions for improved starch metabolism and catalytic ability. Calcium allows plants to effectively uptake and metabolize nitrates; as such, it is an essential component for any nitrates in solution.
The calcium found in Vital (calcium carbonate) is modified into an acetate form, which makes it entirely water-soluble. This means that Vital is immediately plant available, so there is no lag between application and the plant’s opportunity to absorb and metabolize. Vital also avoids unnecessary chlorides, preventing the buildup of this potentially phytotoxic molecule.
In soilless media and water culture, use Vital throughout the cropping cycle. Use 2 to 4 times a season in outdoor gardens.
