Total Nitrogen (N)
↻
Builds proteins and chlorophyll. Supplied here as free amino acids that give the plant readily available building blocks for new tissue growth.
↻
16%
Soluble Potash (K₂O)
↻
Moves carbohydrates and nutrients throughout the plant. Supports stress tolerance and the filling of seed, fruit and grain.
↻
5%
Sulfur (S)
↻
Builds amino acids and proteins and supports nitrogen use. Important for crop yield and quality.

Boron (B)
↻
Supports flowering and reproductive processes. Helps move sugars and nutrients for healthy flowering.
↻
0.0004%
Iron (Fe)
↻
Required to form chlorophyll and transfer energy. Helps maintain photosynthesis and keep crops greener longer.
