Description

A complete three-part feeding system for the stage when plants stop growing leaves and start making flowers and fruit. The high-phosphorus, high-potassium base drives bud set and fruit fill, while separate calcium and magnesium support firmer, better-coloured fruit.

When to use it

Feed with All Purpose 20-20-20 while plants are growing leaves and stems. Switch to Advanced Formula once plants begin budding, and keep using it through flowering and fruiting until harvest.

What each part does

NPK 4-18-38 fertiliser bag

NPK 4-18-38: low nitrogen keeps plants from putting energy into leaves, while high phosphorus and potassium support flowering, fruit set and fruit size.

Calcium nitrate fertiliser bag

Calcium nitrate: calcium builds strong cell walls for firmer fruit, while the nitrate form is readily available to plants.

Magnesium sulphate fertiliser bag

Magnesium sulphate: magnesium sits at the centre of chlorophyll, helping keep leaves green and productive while plants carry fruit.

Why it comes in three parts

Calcium reacts with phosphate and sulphate when they are mixed together in concentrated form, which can lock nutrients up before they reach the plant. Keeping the parts separate means each one stays stable and available until you mix the feed with water.

Why growers choose it

More flowers, stronger fruiting: elevated phosphorus and potassium support flowering, fruit set and crop development.

Better fruit quality: potassium supports fruit filling, colour, flavour development and overall crop quality.

Added calcium for developing fruit: supports strong cell structure and helps reduce the risk of calcium-related deficiencies.

Added magnesium for healthy green growth: supports chlorophyll production for richer green leaves and helps prevent magnesium deficiency.

Everything for flowering and fruiting in one kit: the base nutrients plus separate calcium and magnesium are supplied together.

Kept separate for a reason: the three-part format maintains nutrient stability before mixing.

Soil or hydro: suitable for garden beds, pots, coco and hydroponic systems.

FAQ
When should I start using it?

Start using Advanced Formula once plants begin budding and continue through flowering and fruit development. Use All Purpose 20-20-20 during the earlier leafy growth stage.

How much do I use?
  • Seedlings: 6g NPK 4-18-38 + 6g Calcium Nitrate + 3g Magnesium Sulphate per 10L of water.
  • Growing, flowering & fruiting plants: 8g NPK 4-18-38 + 8g Calcium Nitrate + 4g Magnesium Sulphate per 10L of water.
Why does it come in three parts?

Calcium can react with phosphate and sulphate when stored together at high concentration. Keeping the nutrients separate helps prevent precipitation and keeps them available to the plant.

Can I mix all three parts together?

No. Do not mix the concentrated nutrients directly together.

  • Dissolve and apply the NPK separately.
  • Dissolve and apply the Calcium Nitrate separately.
  • Dissolve and apply the Magnesium Sulphate separately.
How do I make the sprayer concentrates?
  • NPK 4-18-38: 200g fertiliser + 800mL water.
  • Calcium Nitrate: 100g calcium nitrate + 900mL water.
  • Magnesium Sulphate: 50g magnesium sulphate + 950mL water.

Prepare and apply each solution separately.

What order should I apply them?
  1. Apply NPK 4-18-38.
  2. Flush the sprayer with clean water.
  3. Apply Calcium Nitrate.
  4. Flush again.
  5. Apply Magnesium Sulphate.
Does it work in hydroponics?

Yes. Advanced Formula can be used in hydroponic systems as well as coco, pots and garden growing systems. Keep the three nutrient components separate until diluted and applied.

How should I store it?

Store each component separately in a cool, dry place. Reseal the bags after use and keep them away from moisture, children and pets.

What NPK 4-18-38 Means

Higher P and K to drive budding, flowering and fruit quality while keeping foliage compact.

  • Fruiting & flowering: Tomatoes, peppers, berries, cucurbits, roses, citrus.
  • Compact growth: Low N helps prevent stretch; pushes blooms & fruit load.
  • Already with Cal-Mag: Calcium (19%) strengthens cell walls; Magnesium (9.6%) powers photosynthesis and nutrient movement.

The 4-18-38 profile prioritises phosphorus and potassium. Phosphorus supports stronger roots and abundant flower initiation, while potassium drives colour, flavour and overall resilience. The modest nitrogen helps prevent stretch, directing energy into blossoms and fruit load. With added Calcium Nitrate and Magnesium Sulphate, plants also receive structural strength, resistance to tip burn, and improved chlorophyll activity.

  • Seedling mix and Grow & Bloom recipes included for every stage.
  • Gentle on roots; ideal for frequent feeding schedules.
  • Works with soil, hydroponics and foliar applications.

FAQ

You get three essential components that deliver complete nutrition for flowering and fruiting plants:

āœ”ļø NPK 4-18-38 — High phosphorus and potassium for strong flowering, fruit set, and colour.
āœ”ļø Calcium Nitrate — Builds firm fruit, prevents blossom end rot, and supports growth.
āœ”ļø Magnesium Sulphate — Boosts chlorophyll, nutrient uptake, and overall plant health.

Fertilisers with a higher K value in the NPK ratio are considered high in potassium. Examples include NPK 4-18-38, 13-13-36, or 0-0-50, which deliver concentrated potassium to enhance fruiting, colour, and flavour.

At CompleteGrow, our NPK 4-18-38 + Calcium & Magnesium is a professional-grade high-potassium fertiliser designed for fruiting and flowering plants. It improves sweetness, firmness, and resilience across a wide range of crops — including tomatoes, peppers, citrus, and berries.


Which fertiliser is high in both phosphorus and potassium?

High-phosphorus and high-potassium fertilisers like NPK 4-18-38 combine the two most important bloom nutrients — phosphorus (P) for root and flower formation, and potassium (K) for fruit size, quality, and colour.

This balanced blend provides full bloom support, making it ideal for plants that need energy for flowering and fruit set, such as tomatoes, strawberries, capsicums, and citrus trees.


What is the best high-potassium fertiliser in Australia?

For Australian growers, CompleteGrow NPK 4-18-38 + Calcium & Magnesium is one of the best high-potassium fertilisers available. It’s crafted for consistent results in hydroponic and soil-based systems, ensuring improved fruit yield, colour development, and disease resistance across all major crops.

High-phosphorus fertilisers have a larger middle number in their NPK ratio — such as NPK 4-18-38, 10-52-10, or 10-30-20.

These blends encourage root growth, early flowering, and strong bud formation, making them ideal for fruiting and flowering plants.

For Australian growers, CompleteGrow NPK 4-18-38 + Calcium & Magnesium is a professional-grade fertiliser high in phosphorus and potassium, delivering powerful bloom and fruit performance.

Fruit trees require a fertiliser rich in phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) to support flowering, fruit set, and sweetness.

A formula such as NPK 4-18-38 provides the ideal nutrient balance for strong root systems and heavy fruit production, while helping prevent leaf drop and poor fruit colour.

When enhanced with Calcium & Magnesium, this blend offers professional-grade performance for citrus, mango, avocado, and stone-fruit trees — suitable for both hydroponic and soil-based growing systems.
