Magnesium nitrate 25kg

Magnesium nitrate, a completely water-soluble fertilizer for fertigation in field and greenhouse production. Magnesium is important for plant growth and development. Its deficiency slows down the development of plants, which leads to limited yields and poor quality of production. It is a key component to the chlorophyll molecule. It plays a significant role in the processes of photosynthesis and the formation of carbohydrates. For the treatment of visual symptoms of magnesium deficiency and high potassium content in soil and plants.

Compatible with most fertilizers except phosphates and sulphates.

Magnesium is an element of great importance for fruit crops and when there is a shortage, the trees reduce their productivity and get sick.

Application of magnesium fertilizers is usually necessary when the soils are light, low in magnesium or acidic. The application of high rates of potassium fertilizers to soils insufficiently stored with magnesium, as well as heavy rainfall are also possible causes of magnesium deficiency. Symptoms appear during the summer months. On the leaves of fruit trees suffering from magnesium deficiency, chlorotic spots appear, which are located symmetrically to the main nerve. Soon after their appearance, the spots necrotize (usually within two days). These signs appear initially on the old leaves, which fall prematurely. The fruits are smaller and of poorer quality. The water supply of fruit plants is also disrupted. The apple is considered to be the most sensitive to magnesium deficiency, but other fruit species also suffer from it. The application of magnesium fertilizers to the soil has a slower effect. For this reason, they should be used before the signs of deficiency appear. Foliar feeding with magnesium is more efficient than soil application Foliar fertilization is much more efficient than soil application of magnesium fertilizers. Usually several sprays are made during the vegetation after the formation of the leaf mass. The salts magnesium sulfate (with 16 percent magnesium) and magnesium nitrate (with 15 percent magnesium) are used with a concentration not higher than 2 percent, due to the risk of burns on the leaves. For foliar feeding, foliar fertilizers can also be used, containing magnesium for soil and foliar feeding at a consumption of 60-200 ml / dca.
