Vegan Bloom Nutrient NPK 1-4-4 - VGN - ATAMI

See flowering through with VGN 1-4-4

In full bloom the plant no longer needs to build leaves: it needs to fill its flowers. Atami's VGN 1-4-4 writes that shift into its formula — nitrogen down to 1, phosphorus and potassium up to 4 — all on a fully plant-based foundation.

Why so little nitrogen?

High nitrogen in bloom sustains foliage at the expense of flowers, and often costs you in flavour. By cutting it to 1, VGN 1-4-4 directs all the energy towards production. Phosphorus supports flower formation, potassium their filling and firmness.

• Low nitrogen — The plant stops making leaves and concentrates on flowers.
• Phosphorus at 4 — Flower and fruit formation is supported.
• Potassium at 4 — Filling and tissue firmness follow.
• No animal input — Composed exclusively of plant-derived residues.

Its place in the VGN range

VGN reads as a progression: 5-2-2 for growth, 2-2-4 at balance, 1-4-4 for flowering, and VGN CalMag as a corrective throughout. The 1-4-4 closes the programme and carries it to harvest.

All the plant's energy aimed at the flower, with no animal input.

Do you need a booster on top?

VGN 1-4-4 is a base nutrient, not a PK booster. It covers the background nutrition of flowering. If you want an extra push over the final weeks, a booster such as Rokzbastic can be added — but one never replaces the other.

How to use VGN 1-4-4

It takes over once flowering is established.

• Dosage — Follow the rate on the bottle.
• Phase — From established flowering through to harvest.
• Before — Takes over from VGN 2-2-4, overlapping by a week.
• Alongside — VGN CalMag stays useful in parallel on soft water.

Your flowers form and fill, carried by nutrition calibrated for that phase.

Joseph's tip: "Piling a PK booster on top of an already well-dosed bloom feed is the surest way to lock the plant up. Use your EC as a guardrail: if it climbs, lighten before you add."
