Rock Resinator Review: A Closer Look at the PK Flower Enhancer

Short version? Rock Resinator is a flower enhancer for growers who want one bloom additive running from week 2 of flower right up to the chop, rather than a quick shot of PK near the end. From £25.00 for the 250ml. It goes in soil, coco or hydro. There's no kit with it, but the bigger bottles get cheaper quickly: the 1L is £46.05 less than four 250mls.

Rock Resinator FAQs

Is Rock Resinator any good?

For the right grower, yes. It's a long-run bloom additive with phosphorus, potassium, organic acids and amino acids, and you use it from week 2 of flower right through to harvest in any medium. It costs more per bottle than a basic PK shot, though, so it suits someone who wants one booster doing the whole of bloom.

Rock Resinator or Advanced Nutrients Big Bud?

Both feed extra phosphorus, potassium and amino acids in flower. Big Bud is cheaper per bottle and is used in the earlier part of bloom, roughly weeks 2 to 4, with Overdrive taking over at the end. Rock Resinator runs from week 2 to harvest on its own. If you're already on an Advanced Nutrients base, Big Bud fits. If you want one bottle for the whole of bloom, go Resinator.

How much Rock Resinator do I use per litre?

1 to 2ml per litre as standard, building up to around 3 to 3.5ml per litre through the final weeks. That's 10 to 20ml in a 10 litre can to start with.

When should I start using Rock Resinator?

At the start of week 2 of flowering, once you can clearly see flower sites forming. Then keep it going until harvest.

Can I use Rock Resinator during the flush?

Yes. The feeding directions say to keep using it through the flush period, at the higher 3 to 3.5ml per litre rate. If you flush with plain water only, that's your call, but it's not how the bottle is meant to be used.

Does Rock Resinator work in coco and hydro?

Yes. It's made for all growing media and systems, so soil, coco and hydro are all fine.

What is in Rock Resinator?

Soluble potash, potassium, organic acids and amino acids, in a blend built around phosphorus and potassium. The product description doesn't give an NPK figure.

Which size of Rock Resinator should I buy?

The 250ml is fine for a small tent or a first try. Most people running it every feed will save by going to the 1L, which works out £46.05 cheaper than four 250ml bottles.

What it does well

It covers the whole of bloom. Lots of PK products are a short, sharp hit you add for a few days near the end and then forget about. Resinator goes in from week 2 and stays in. One bottle, one habit.

And it's not just raw phosphorus and potassium. Rock put organic acids and amino acids in there too, aimed at the flowering sites. Their pitch is more essential oil and more flower mass. We can't promise you a figure on the scales and we won't pretend to. But that's what it's built for.

It also doesn't care what you grow in. Soil, coco, hydro. Same bottle.

  • One additive from week 2 of flower to harvest
  • Phosphorus and potassium plus organic acids and amino acids
  • Works in soil, coco and hydro
  • Five sizes, from a 250ml to try it up to a 20L for big rooms

Where it falls short

Good fit if you...

  • want one bloom additive for the whole of flower
  • grow in soil, coco or hydro and don't fancy juggling boosters
  • are happy to pay a bit more for a blend with amino and organic acids

Look elsewhere if you...

  • just want a cheap PK shot for the last few weeks
  • are watching the pennies on a big room
  • like to see an NPK figure on the label before you buy
Know before you buy: this isn't a cheap bottle. The 1L is £53.95, where a litre of CANNA PK 13/14 is £15.00. That's because PK 13/14 is a one-off shot for 3 to 6 days, about 3 weeks before harvest, and Resinator runs for most of flower. If a short boost at the end is all you're after, PK 13/14 sorts it for a lot less. And if you're running a full Advanced Nutrients line, Big Bud and Overdrive are built to sit with it.

Which version to buy

Same stuff in every bottle. It's just about how much you get through, and we've checked each size against buying the smaller one several times over.

The big jump is from 250ml to 1L. Running it at 2ml per litre, a 250ml bottle covers 125 litres of feed, which goes faster than you'd think in a decent tent. Past the 5L the savings flatten out, so only go bigger if you've got the room to get through it.

How to use it

  1. Wait for the start of week 2 of flower, when the flower sites are clearly forming.
  2. Mix up your usual base feed in the can or tank.
  3. Add Rock Resinator at 1 to 2ml per litre and give it a stir.
  4. Check your pH and EC before you feed.
  5. As you head into the last weeks, build the dose up to around 3 to 3.5ml per litre.
  6. Keep it in right through to harvest, flush period included.

Looking after it

It's a bottle of feed, so there's not a lot to it. A few habits help, mind.

  • Keep it cool and dark. Out of the tent and off the windowsill, with the cap done up.
  • Measure it properly. At 1 to 3.5ml per litre, guessing with a glug from the bottle is how feeds go wrong.
  • Watch your EC as the dose climbs. Going up to 3.5ml per litre adds strength to the feed, so check it with a meter rather than hoping.
  • Keep your pH pen calibrated. Additives shift pH a touch, and a pen that's drifted won't tell you.

How it stacks up

Bloom additive When it's used 250ml 1L
Rock Resinator Week 2 of flower to harvest £25.00 £53.95
Advanced Nutrients Big Bud Earlier bloom, roughly weeks 2 to 4 £11.80 £28.50
Advanced Nutrients Overdrive Last 3 weeks of flower £10.79 £30.50
CANNA PK 13/14 One 3 to 6 day shot, about 3 weeks before harvest £5.50 £15.00
CANNA Boost Accelerator From flowers forming to finish £21.50 £53.99

Prices as at November 2026. Big Bud and Overdrive are designed to be used one after the other, so budget for both.

Price-wise, Resinator sits right next to CANNA Boost, which also runs most of bloom. The Advanced Nutrients pair costs less per bottle but you'll need two of them. And PK 13/14 is the cheap and cheerful option if a short end-of-grow boost is all you want.
