Nitrophoska Extra is a compound fertiliser meaning it has the same chemical composition of high-grade plant available nutrients in every granule. This ensures there is no nutrient segregation which produces a more even crop with better yields. All the potassium is in the form of potassium sulphate, enabling it to be used on chloride sensitive plants.
Nitrophoska Extra contains both forms of nitrogen; nitrate nitrogen (5.5%) and ammonium nitrogen (6.5%).
As well as NPKS, Nitrophoska Extra contains a full range of trace elements (Iron 500ppm, Boron 200ppm, Zinc 100ppm, Manganese 70 ppm & Copper 10 ppm) plus calcium & magnesium to provide a complete feed in every granule.
Nitrophoska Extra has a near neutral effect on the soil pH which is particularly important when banding fertilisers.
Uses
Extensively for avocado, grapes, lettuces, melons, cucumbers, peppers and all crops under glass and home garden.
