Two-part nutrients are a balancing act: two bottles, two measures, and a solution that is only right if both are right. Ionic Grow is Growth Technology's one-bottle alternative for the vegetative stage. It is a complete hydroponic nutrient made with GT's single-pack technology, so every essential mineral sits in one concentrate. It is pH buffered to keep the solution steady, and formulated clean so it does not block a hydroponic system. Mix it at 7–10ml per litre, test and adjust the pH to 5.5–6.5, and feed. Nitrogen is mostly nitrate with a small ammonium fraction. When the plants move into flowering, switch to Ionic Bloom and keep the same routine. It is a hydroponic nutrient: for coco, Growth Technology makes GT Coco A&B. Available in 1L, 5.5L and 20L.

Two-bottle system, one bottle at a time. Ionic Grow is for the vegetative stage. Switch to Ionic Bloom when the plants move into flowering. Growing in coco? Growth Technology's coco formula is GT Coco Grow A&B.
One bottle, no A and BSingle-pack technology puts every essential mineral in one concentrate. One measure per litre, nothing to balance against a second bottle, and no way to add the parts in the wrong order.
pH bufferedBuffered to hold the solution's pH steady between checks, so the roots see a consistent solution. Growth Technology still directs a test and adjust to 5.5–6.5 after mixing.
Clean in the linesGrowth Technology formulates Ionic to prevent blockages in hydroponic systems. That matters in drippers, spray manifolds and fine-bore lines.
Complete for the vegetative stageTotal nitrogen 2.3% w/v, mostly nitrate, with potassium 3.2%, calcium 1.2%, magnesium 0.4%, sulfur and the trace elements. One bottle, all of it.
Not tied to one systemGrowth Technology lists Ionic for various hydroponic systems rather than one setup, so a change of system does not mean a change of nutrient.
Half of a matched pairIonic Bloom is the flowering formula in the same single-pack format. Changing stages is a swap of bottle, not a new routine.

Grower's Tip

  • Mix Ionic into the water first, then any additives, then test and adjust the pH last. A pH reading taken before the additives go in is not the pH the roots get. Silica is the exception: Growth Technology puts it into the plain water first, with a 15-minute rest, before the Ionic goes in.
  • Start at 7ml per litre on young plants and work towards 10ml as they grow. Let the EC pen decide where you land: Growth Technology's direction is to adjust the dilution to the conductivity you want.
  • Buffered does not mean you can retire the pH pen. Plants shift the pH as they feed, so check a recirculating reservoir daily.
  • Flush with plain water once a month to clear mineral salts from the media and the lines.
  • A 1L bottle makes 100 litres of nutrient solution at 10ml per litre, or about 140 litres at 7ml. The 5.5L suits a tent on regular reservoir changes; the 20L is for bigger systems.
  • Switch to Ionic Bloom as the plants move into flowering. Same routine, different bottle.

How To Mix It

1Fill the reservoir or mixing container with the volume of water you need. If you run Silica, add it to the plain water now, stir it through and let it rest 15 minutes.
2Shake the bottle and add 7–10ml of Ionic Grow per litre of water. Stir it through thoroughly.
3Stir in any additives you use, one at a time.
4Test the pH and adjust it to 5.5–6.5. Check the EC and adjust the dilution if you are working to a target.
5Feed at each watering, and flush with plain water once a month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Ionic Grow a one-part nutrient?

Yes. It is a single-pack concentrate with every essential mineral in one bottle. There is no Part A and Part B to mix.

How much Ionic Grow do I use?

7–10ml per litre of water at each watering, adjusted to reach the conductivity you want. Flush with plain water once a month.

Do I still need to adjust the pH?

Yes. Ionic is pH buffered to keep the solution stable, but Growth Technology's direction is to test and adjust to 5.5–6.5 after the nutrient and any additives are mixed in.

When do I switch to Ionic Bloom?

When the plants move into flowering. Ionic Grow is formulated for the vegetative stage and Ionic Bloom for flowering.

Can I use Ionic Grow in coco?

It is not what Growth Technology makes for coco. GT lists Ionic for hydroponic systems and formulates GT Coco A&B specifically for coco fibre, so that is the range we would point a coco grower to.

Will Ionic block my drippers?

No. Growth Technology formulates Ionic as a clean formula to prevent blockages in hydroponic systems. A monthly plain-water flush keeps mineral salts from building up in the lines.

What EC should I run?

Growth Technology does not publish an EC target for Ionic. Its direction is to adjust the dilution rate to the conductivity you want for your plants and your system.

What is in Ionic Grow?

Total nitrogen 2.3% w/v (nitrate 2.2, ammonium 0.1), phosphorus 0.5%, potassium 3.2%, calcium 1.2%, magnesium 0.4% and sulfur 0.12%, with iron, manganese, boron, zinc, copper and molybdenum. The full table is in Specifications.

Which size should I buy?

The 1L makes 100–140 litres of solution, enough to see how it suits your system. The 5.5L suits a tent on regular reservoir changes, and the 20L is for larger systems. 20L drums ship on a flat freight rate.

Growers First, Retailers Second

Welcome to The Grow Guys

We built The Grow Guys from the soil up — well, coco and perlite. Before we sold gear, we bought it, ran it, and learned the hard way what's worth the money and what ends up in the shed. That's the filter everything on our shelves passes through. No sales scripts, no rebadged junk, no telling you what you want to hear. Just gear we'd run ourselves and advice from people who actually grow. Chasing higher yields, tighter flowers, or your first harvest? You're in the right place.
