K50

A concentrated inorganic plant health promoter containing potassium and nitrogen.  The main role of potassium within the plant is as a water regulator and in this role it influences many plant processes. It is particularly important in the regulation of cell water content, cell turgidity and rates of transpiration. The translocation of photosynthesates and a number of plant enzymes all depend on potassium.

Potassium is a major nutrient which is required by all crops. It is second only to nitrogen in the amounts required by the crop. It is highly mobile and is quickly distributed within the plant. The main role of potassium within the plant is as a water regulator and in this role it influences many plant processes. Apply when deficiency is suspected or diagnosed – repeat as necessary at 10-14 day intervals.

Low levels of potassium will seriously affect crop growth, quality and yield. K50 is a unique formulation which carries a high concentration of potassium. The high potassium analysis will ensure optimum uptake of the potash in situations where it is required. Also in carbonate form K50 helps the plant create a leaf environment uninviting to leaf pathogens such as powdery mildew and botrytis.
