HortipHix fertilisers have been developed especially for use in hard water (with more than 150 mg/l bicarbonate). They provide plants not only with a robust feed but also reduce water hardness and pH.
HortipHix benefits:
- Excellent solubility in hard water
- Low pH of Stock solution prevents formation of insoluble precipitate
- Reduces bicarbonate and pH of fertigation solution
- Increased nutrient availability around the roots from the acidic solution
- Reduces pH rise in growing media
- Reduces dripper blockage
- Reduces carbonate deposits on leaves
- Reduces the need for separate acidification of irrigation water
- High K acidifying analyses are available
- Soft fruit mixes are urea-free containing nitrogen as NO3 for firmer fruit
