Vitalink

VitaLink — British-made for UK hard water

VitaLink is made in the UK and formulated specifically around British tap water, which tends to be harder than the water most Dutch and American ranges are designed against — a genuine point of difference rather than a marketing line, since hard water growers often find they need less cal-mag correction on VitaLink than on an imported base feed built for softer European water.

Max Grow and Max Bloom form the two-part base, Fulvic is a root-zone conditioner that improves nutrient uptake, and Chill is a heat-stress tonic for tents running hot in summer. VitaLink Plant Start covers propagation and early veg with a gentler formula than the main Max Grow/Bloom line, dosed at roughly half strength for seedlings and fresh cuttings.

If you're on mains water in a hard-water area and finding an imported base feed needs constant extra cal-mag to stay balanced, VitaLink is worth trying as a straight swap rather than adding another correction bottle to whatever you're already running.

See propagation nutrients for Plant Start alongside other first-feed options, and our tent cooling guide if Chill's heat-stress angle is relevant to your setup. Free UK delivery over £50.
