Description
Recommendations for use:
– in order to quickly replenish nutrient deficiencies, especially in times when the natural uptake by the root system is disrupted, e.g. by unfavourable weather conditions.
– to stimulate the development of the root system and aboveground biomass,
– to increase drought resistance by ensuring proper water management in the plant
– to increase disease resistance (e.g. potato blight),
– to ensure proper flower bud formation, flowering and fruiting,
– in order to increase the quantity and quality of the yield, improve the storability of, among other things, vegetables and fruit.
MACROELEMENTS | % weight | % volume |
---|---|---|
Nitrogen (N) | 5.00 | 6.25 |
Phosphorus (P2O5) | 8.00 | 10.00 |
Potassium (K2O) | 12.00 | 15.00 |
MICROELEMENTS | % weight | % volume |
Boron (B) | 0.011 | 0.014 |
Copper (Cu) | 0.008 | 0.010 |

Molybdenum (Mo) | 0.001 | 0.0012 |
Zinc (Zn) | 0.006 | 0.007 |
The role of potassium in crops:
- is responsible for the quantity and quality of the yield
- participates in the regulation of nitrogen uptake
- is responsible for the water management in plants
- contributes to building resilience to drought conditions
- promotes the development of the root system and the uptake of other nutrients from the soil
- increases the frost resistance of plants
- is involved in the formation of starches and sugars.
Potassium deficiencies result in:
- Inability to defend themselves against drought stress: plants lose their turgor and start to wilt
- Yellowing of leaves progressing from the edges. Over time, the leaves wilt, turn brown and die
- The plants are smaller, with a shorter and more flaccid stem
- Delayed flowering, flowers are noticeably smaller
- Limited ear and cob formation, poor grain pouring
Dosage and timing of application:
Crop | Dose (l/ha) | Number of Treatments and Application Timing |
---|---|---|
Sugar Beet | 5 | 2 treatments: From the 4-6 leaf stage to 100% canopy closure (BBCH 16-39), at intervals of 12-14 days |
Fruit Trees and Shrubs | 5 | 2-3 treatments: From the green bud stage to the end of primordium and fruit growth (BBCH 59-81) |
Maize | 5 | 2 treatments: From the 4 leaf stage (BBCH 15-18) |
Ornamental Plants | 0.2-0.5% | 2-3 treatments: Foliar and soil application at intervals of 12-13 days |
Oilseed Rape | 4-5 | 4 treatments: One in autumn – from the 6 leaf stage to 2 weeks before the end of autumn vegetation (BBCH 16-25), three treatments in spring – from the start of vegetation to the beginning of bud development (BBCH 30-50) |
Strawberries | 5 | 3 treatments: From the white bud formation stage (BBCH 57-67) |
Field Vegetables | 5 | 3 treatments: From the 2nd week after emergence/planting every 12-14 days |
Vegetables under Cover | 0.2-0.5% | 3 treatments: Foliar or soil application, 2-3 weeks after planting every 10-12 days |
Winter Cereals | 5 | 2 treatments: From the stage of stem elongation to the thickening of the flag leaf sheath (BBCH 31-51) |
Potatoes | 5 | 4 treatments: From the shoot formation stage until 40% of the final weight of the tubers is reached (BBCH 35-73), at intervals of 12-14 days |
Fertigation – concentration up to 0.3%
