Description
Mono Potassium Phosphate NPK 0-52-34 Fertilizer
Dosage
- 🌿 Foliar Spray: Dosage: 1–2 grams per liter of water (0.1%–0.2% solution) Application Frequency: Every 7–14 days Best Time: Early morning or late afternoon (avoid strong sunlight) Note: Ensure thorough leaf coverage, but avoid runoff.
- 💧 Fertigation (Drip Irrigation / Hydroponics): Dosage: 1–3 kg per acre per application (or 1–2 g per liter of water in hydroponics) Frequency: Weekly or as needed during flowering/fruiting stages Dilution: Dissolve completely in water before application
- 🌱 Soil Drench (less common for this formula): Dosage: 2–5 grams per liter of water Use Case: When foliar or fertigation isn't feasible
Benefits
Provides readily available Phosphorus
P (Phosphorus): 52% ,This indicates that the fertilizer contains 52% available phosphate (P2O5). Note that fertilizer grades express phosphorus as Phosphate (P2O5), not elemental phosphorus (P). Phosphorus is crucial for: Root development Flower initiation and development Fruit and seed production Energy transfer processes within the plant (ATP) Overall plant maturation
Rich in Potassium
K (Potassium): 34%, This indicates that the fertilizer contains 34% soluble potash (K2O). Similar to phosphorus, potassium is expressed as potash (K2O), not elemental potassium (K). Potassium is vital for: Overall plant vigor and health Regulation of water uptake and loss (stomatal function) Enzyme activation Improving fruit quality (size, color, sugar content) Enhancing disease resistance and stress tolerance (drought, cold)
Improves soil health
Mono Potassium Phosphate can help to improve soil health by promoting the growth of beneficial soil microbes. This, in turn, can lead to better nutrient uptake and overall plant health.
Versatile application
NPK 0-52-34 Fertilizer can be used on a wide range of plants, including vegetables, fruits, flowers, trees, and lawns. It can be applied through various methods, including soil application, foliar feeding, and fertigation.
Things to Consider
Nutrient composition
Check the specific nutrients included in the ammonium sulphate and verify it aligns with your plants' needs. Some popular micronutrients in these blends include Nitrogen and Sulphur.
Application rates
Always follow the instructions on the product label for proper dilution and application frequency to avoid overfertilization.
Plant compatibility
Certain plants might be sensitive to specific nutrients. Research the appropriate blends for your plant types.
Soil testing
While helpful, humic fertilizers might not address underlying soil deficiencies. Consider soil testing to determine specific nutrient needs for targeted solutions.
