An organically complexed, compound trace element fertiliser. It contains magnesium, iron, and manganese, which are vital in chlorophyll production, plus zinc which is essential in enzyme production and systemic disease resistance. The fertiliser is very safe to use with minimal scorch risk.
The complexing organic acids used in the formulation aid the uptake of nutrients by leaf tissue and reduce lock-up and insolubility in foliar spray solutions. Once in the leaf, the complex releases the nutrients so they can be used by the plant.
Crop response is rapid, with improvement in leaf colour and productivity (crop yield).
HortiChel Compound TE fertiliser is very easy to apply and is very cost-effective in use, with application rates of between 1 and 5 kg/ha depending on crop.
