Med-Tek PK Elicit
Once your plants turn to flowering, their demand for phosphorus and potassium climbs. Med-Tek PK Elicit is a bloom-stage PK booster and biostimulant in one, built around phosphites and organic acids to lift crop quality through the flowering stages. The extra P and K don't arrive on their own. They come in a citrate-buffered blend of organic acids and trace elements that help the plant take that nutrition up and put it to work in the flowers.
PK Elicit's phosphorus covers the energy cost of flowering, because the plant needs it every time it builds new flower tissue. Its potassium moves water and sugars around the plant, carrying what the leaves make into the swelling flowers. A little nitrogen, magnesium and sulphur come along with them.
The phosphites are what make it a biostimulant as well as a booster. Phosphite is a reduced form of phosphorus, with one less oxygen atom than the phosphate roots feed on, and the plant doesn't simply use it as more phosphorus. In PK Elicit it works with the organic acids as the biostimulant side of the formula, while the P and K do the feeding.
The organic acids in PK Elicit do two jobs. Down in the substrate they promote healthy microflora, the microbial life around your plant's roots that helps cycle nutrients. In the solution, PK Elicit's acids act as chelators and complexors, holding nutrients in forms that stay available instead of binding up with other salts, and roots can absorb them more easily that way. PK Elicit's citrate buffering fits the same picture, since citrate is an organic acid and a chelator in its own right.
Med-Tek have fortified PK Elicit with iron, zinc and boron to promote optimum flower development. Boron has a hand in pollen and flower formation, and zinc in the growth hormones behind new tissue, so both count most while flowers are setting and filling out. Iron keeps the leaves making chlorophyll to power all of it. Med-Tek say the result is increased yields, plus higher quality through greater essential oil production!
PK Elicit is an acidic concentrate, at around pH 4, so it pulls your nutrient solution's pH down as it goes in. It adds its own conductivity as well: 0.4 mS/cm at the lower dosing rate and 0.673 mS/cm at the upper rate. If your base feed already runs close to its target strength, that extra EC counts toward the total. One rate range covers the whole bloom stage, which makes it easy to add to a flowering feed you already run.

Directions for Use
Dilution Rate
- Root Drench: 1 - 2 ml/L
Application
- Shake bottle well before use.
- Use during the bloom stage.
- Measure the dose for the volume of nutrient solution and add it to the solution.
- Mix thoroughly.
- Check the pH after dosing, as PK Elicit lowers solution pH, and adjust to pH 5.5 to 5.8.
- Dose it first and correct the pH afterwards, rather than the other way round.
Safety
Store in a cool, dark, frost-free place.
