Potassium
is considered the "universal helper"
AGGRAND
Natural Kelp and Sulfate of Potash is
an important part of any soil fertility/plant
nutrition program. It contains 8% readily
available Potash, a grade of 0-0-8 (N-P-K).
Potassium (K) is considered the "universal
helper" and is a major contributor to plant
health because it regulates so many important
processes in the plant. AGGRAND Natural Kelp and
Sulfate of Potash also contains 2% sulfur (S).
Sulfur, called the "fourth major nutrient," has
many important functions in plant growth and
must be present in sufficient amounts in the
soil and plant tissue to realize the benefits of
nitrogen and potassium.
Kelp enhances heat,
drought and cold tolerance.
AGGRAND
Natural Kelp and Sulfate of Potash
utilizes kelp concentrate from the icy waters of
the North Atlantic Ocean. Kelp from this source
contains high levels of plant growth hormones,
amino acids, micronutrients and potassium. When
used as fertilizer, kelp makes plants more
robust and healthy by enhancing their heat,
drought and cold tolerance. In addition, kelp
increases the plant growth rate and fruit
production, size, and quality.
AGGRAND Natural Kelp
and Sulfate of Potash contains no chloride.
It contains
minimally processed sulfate of potash from Great
Salt Lake in Utah. Unlike other sources of
potassium this source does not contain chloride
(Cl) which can be damaging to soil life and
plant roots. Potassium must be present in large
quantities in plants because it is a component
of the fluids which flood the plant tissue.
Potassium-deficient plants are susceptible to
insect attack, have weak stalks, and
underdeveloped root systems. |
Sufficient
potassium produces high quality vegetables and
tree fruits.
Dark green leaves, high nutritional quality,
firm stalks, prolific root growth, greater plant
vigor, improved nutrient uptake, higher yields,
fewer blemishes increased disease and insect
resistance, and increased fruit shelf-life are
benefits of crops grown with AGGRAND Natural
Kelp and Sulfate of Potash.
Sufficient Sulfur produces
high quality crops.
Sulfur is often present in plants in equal or
greater amounts than potassium. Sufficient
sulfur produces high quality and yields of
vegetables, tree fruits, small grains, legumes,
and forages. High protein and oil levels in seed
and high protein and vitamin A production in
forages and legumes are benefits of increasing
sulfur fertility.
In addition to the many
benefits provided by the kelp and sulfate of
potash in AGGRAND Natural Kelp and
Sulfate of Potash, naturally occurring
proprietary ingredients added to this fertilizer
release nutrients from the soil, act as
chelating agents, aid in foliar and root uptake,
and stimulate soil biological activity.
AGGRAND Natural Kelp and
Sulfate of Potash is the key to overall plant
health, quality, increased marketability, high
yields and increased stress tolerance.
