Product description:
Water-soluble fertilizers, such as the one with an NPK ratio of 13:00:45, are nutrient-rich formulations designed to dissolve easily in water for efficient application to plants. Here's a breakdown of what each component represents:
-
NPK Ratio:
- N stands for nitrogen (13%)
- P stands for phosphorus (0% in this case)
- K stands for potassium (45%)
-
Description:
- Nitrogen (N) is essential for leafy green growth, overall plant health, and the formation of amino acids, proteins, and chlorophyll.
- Phosphorus (P) is critical for root development, flowering, and fruiting. Although this formulation contains 0% phosphorus, it might be supplemented separately if needed for specific growth stages or plant types.
- Potassium (K) is vital for overall plant health, disease resistance, and the development of strong stems and roots. It also helps regulate water uptake and photosynthesis.
Water-soluble fertilizers are typically used in agricultural and horticultural practices, including hydroponics and fertigation (fertilizing through irrigation systems). They offer precise control over nutrient delivery and are particularly beneficial for fast-growing plants or crops with high nutrient demands.
