Characteristics
ADOB® ProFit 4-12-38 + micro Fruits and Vegetables is a multinutrient, multifunctional crystalline fertiliser. This fully water-soluble product is designed for foliar, fertigation and soilless applications to vegetable, floriculture and orchards crops. It supplies plants with the essential nutrients nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg) and sulphur (S) and ensures optimal development of their aboveground parts. Thanks to its very high content of potassium (the quality nutrient), it stimulates the bulking up of fruits and tubers by boosting accumulation of carbohydrates and oils. It also contains all six micronutrients: boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), molybdenum (Mo), manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn).
While copper, manganese and zinc are chelated by the modern biodegradable IDHA, iron is chelated by the potent chelator DTPA, which facilitates high stability and iron availability up to a pH of 7.5. Molybdenum (which cannot be chelated) is present as a water-soluble, inorganic component. As a result of these properties, all nutrients are readily and quickly available to all plants. Applying this nutrient-rich fertiliser from the early stages of fruits’ growth ensures the optimal development of their biomass and improves their internal and external quality.
ADOB® ProFit 4-12-38 + micro Fruits and Vegetables also boosts plants’ vigour and reduces lodging. It effectively prevents nutrient deficiencies and enhances plant resistance to salinity and occasional water-stress conditions.
