Description

The high iron content of Plantacote Pluss8M is crucial to good performance. Iron is essential for the formation of chlorophyll and is therefore vital for good foliage colour and healthy growth. To ensure high availability, 50% of the iron in Plantacote Pluss 8M is chelated as Fe-EDTA.

The nutrients of Plantacote Pluss 8M . are released by a natural membrane process which is controlled by soil temperature. Declared release times refer to an averagesoiltemperature of 21°C Higher temperatures accelerate the nutrient release, lower temperatures slow it down. The release time is unaffected by substrate type, pH, micro-organisms, or level of irrigation. Plantacote Pluss 8M starts to release after 2- 3 weeks. Due to this specific mechanism the product is very safe to crops; there is no risk of salt stress, even after storage of premixed growing media for up to 2-3weeks. Release of nutrients from Plantacote Pluss 8M is attuned to the physiological requirements of the crop. Thus, release of nitrogen is most pronounced during crop establishment and release of potassium is more pronounced during the later stages.
