Botanicare Organicare Bloom 5-7-10

Organicare Bloom 5-7-10 is an OMRI-listed, patent-pending dry granular organic and natural fertilizer formulated for flowering plants and for use during a plant's bloom phase. The guaranteed analysis is Total Nitrogen 5%, Available Phosphate 7%, Soluble Potash 10%, Calcium 7.32%, Magnesium 1% and Sulfur 1.2%, so it supplies both primary and secondary essential elements. It carries additional phosphorus compared to Organicare Grow to help encourage bloom bulking. Botanicare states that based on label rates, Organicare Bloom and Grow contain more guaranteed-analysis nutrient charge than other organic granular grow and bloom fertilizers on the market.

For container production, top dress and mix the fertilizer into the top 1 to 2 inches of soil every 3 weeks according to the published feed chart. The 12-week chart applies Organicare Bloom beginning in week 4 at 0.25 to 0.5 lb N per cubic yard, week 7 at 0.2 to 0.4 lb N per cubic yard, and week 10 at 0.15 to 0.3 lb N per cubic yard. The week 1 application is not needed when using a potting mix containing plant nutrients, and Botanicare recommends starting with one of its potting mixes. Use it alongside Organicare Grow and Organicare True Earth Potting Mix for a complete organic system.
