GENERAL INFORMATION
- Granular Calcium Nitrate (NPK 15.5-0-0)
- This is a solid form of calcium nitrate and a favorite among farmers and gardeners thanks to its versatility and effectiveness. Whether you want to give your plants a calcium and nitrogen boost via the soil or a foliar spray, granular calcium nitrate can do the job.
- Calcium nitrate fertilizers promote plant growth and yield through various mechanisms. Calcium is essential for the proper development of cell walls and membranes, which provides structural support to the plant and helps to maintain its shape. Calcium also plays a role in root development, which allows plants to absorb water and nutrients from the soil more efficiently. It is 100% water-soluble.
- The nitrogen in calcium nitrate fertilizers also fosters many metabolic processes necessary for plant growth and development. When plants receive adequate amounts of both elements, they conduct photosynthesis more efficiently, resulting in faster growth and higher yields. Calcium also helps regulate the uptake of other essential nutrients, further supporting plant growth and development.
- In addition to its direct effects on plant growth and development, calcium nitrate fertilizer can improve soil health. It achieves this by neutralizing soil acidity and improving soil structure and water retention, providing a more favorable environment for plant roots.
- Application Rate: Mix 3-4g of Calcium Nitrate per litre of water
