Description
The P and K your plants need in flower — from the cleanest sources on mother earth.
Most organic bloom boosters source phosphorus from bat guano or mined rock phosphate - both carry elevated cadmium and lead. KiS built this around fish bone meal instead: a cleaner P source, paired with potassium sulfate, insect frass, alfalfa meal, gypsum, and wollastonite. Dry top-dress - apply, scratch in lightly, water. The Large bag has 65 cups, sized for multi-plant grows or repeat runs.
No guano · No rock phosphate No synthetics · No fillers Low heavy metal sourcing

Why it matters how P is sourced
Traditional PK Boosters vs. KiS Organics Bloom Booster
Typical Organic P/K Boosters
Guano and mined rock phosphate carry elevated cadmium and lead
Heavy metal contamination is the most common reason organic grows fail third-party testing
Guano sourcing raises ecological concerns - bat colonies disturbed for harvest
Liquid PK boosters require measuring, pH testing, and per-watering dosing
Most dry bloom boosters designed for field/garden use, not container timing
Single P/K focus - no supporting inputs for cell wall structure or pest suppression
KiS Bloom Booster 2-8-6
Fish bone meal as the P source - cleaner heavy metal profile than guano or rock phosphate
Developed specifically to minimize heavy metal levels - not a reformulated field blend
No guano - potassium sulfate and insect frass are the K and secondary N sources
Dry top-dress - sprinkle on, water in, done. No measuring liquids or pH testing
Application schedule designed for containers and raised beds specifically
Wollastonite and gypsum included for calcium, silicon, and sulfur support

What's in it and why it matters
Six ingredients, each doing a specific job
Fish bone meal - high phosphorus without the heavy metal risk No guano
Guano and mined rock phosphate regularly carry elevated cadmium and lead. Fish bone meal delivers comparable phosphorus from skeletal calcium phosphate - a cleaner source that doesn't carry the same geological contamination profile.
Potassium sulfate - soluble K plus sulfur, no chloride buildup
Provides potassium for flower energy and water balance plus sulfur for amino acid synthesis, without the chloride salt accumulation that comes with the cheaper potassium chloride alternative.
Insect frass - slow-release nitrogen plus chitin Dual function
Contributes nitrogen to prevent early-flower deficiency, and delivers chitin - which triggers the plant's systemic immune response against fungal pathogens and certain pests without any spray program.
Alfalfa meal - fast nitrogen plus triacontanol
Fast-releasing dry nitrogen source that also contains triacontanol - a natural plant growth hormone that stimulates root growth and can accelerate early flower site development.
Wollastonite - calcium silicate for cell wall strength Uncommon ingredient
Calcium silicate (CaSiO₃) provides calcium and silicon simultaneously. Silicon deposits in plant cell walls, mechanically strengthening them against pest pressure and stress - rarely found in pre-blended bloom amendments.
Gypsum - calcium and sulfur without affecting pH
One of the only calcium sources that doesn't raise soil pH on application - useful in a living soil that's already pH-buffered by the base mix, and mildly improves drainage in dense container profiles.

How to apply
1
Start at late veg or flower flip
Begin when flower sites are forming. Containers 15 gal and under: apply every 2–3 weeks. Beds: single application at flower start is usually enough.
2
Measure and top-dress
½ cup per 5-gal container, scaled for larger pots. ½ cup per sq ft for raised beds (a 4×4 bed = 8 cups). Sprinkle evenly and scratch lightly into the top half-inch if possible.
3
Water in thoroughly
Water to field capacity immediately after applying. The dry amendments require moisture to activate - don't let them sit dry on the surface.
4
Optional second application mid-flower
For heavy feeders or pots under 10 gal, a second application mid-flower keeps P and K from running short. Stop all applications 4–6 weeks before harvest.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
The KiS soils carry most plants through a full cycle without it. The Bloom Booster is most useful for heavy-feeding varieties in containers 15 gal and under, or when you want to proactively push P and K through peak flower demand rather than wait for deficiency signs. KiS includes a cup of it with their Westport Soil Blend - it's an optional push, not a required fix.
Bat guano picks up metals from the insects bats eat; mined rock phosphate is co-deposited with cadmium in geological formations. Fish bone meal sources phosphorus from skeletal calcium phosphate - it doesn't carry the same contamination profile. KiS built this formula around that difference specifically.
At the recommended rate, no - nutrients are biologically bound and release at a pace the plant can use. Don't apply at 2–3x the rate; the alfalfa meal can spike nitrogen if over-applied. Gypsum, wollastonite, and potassium sulfate are all pH-neutral and won't disrupt your soil buffer.
Yes - on any biologically active organic soil. The dry amendments need living microbes to break them down and cycle them into plant-available forms. They won't work well in sterile or inert media. Application rates and timing are the same regardless of soil brand.
Stop 4–6 weeks before your target harvest date. Applying too close - especially the alfalfa meal - can push nitrogen-driven green growth when the plant should be finishing. The late flower period is when you back off, not add more.
