Benefits
Provides readily available Potash
The NPK ratio of 0-0-50 indicates that 50% of the fertilizer's composition is pure potassium. This makes it an excellent choice for plants that demand substantial amounts of potassium for various physiological processes.
Promotes Plant Health
Potassium plays a crucial role in various plant functions, including water regulation, enzyme activation, and carbohydrate metabolism. By providing a sufficient supply of potassium, this fertilizer can enhance overall plant health, vigor, and resilience.
Improves Fruit Quality
Potassium is essential for fruit development, size, and taste. Using Potassium Sulphate can lead to larger, sweeter, and more flavorful fruits.
Enhances Disease Resistance
Adequate potassium levels can help plants better withstand diseases and pests, thereby reducing the need for chemical treatments.
