Benefits of Cal-Trate
A closer look at how plants respond to this formula.
- Stronger Plant Structure: Calcium creates sturdier plants. That means thicker stems, firmer leaves and greater resistance to pests and disease.
- Improved Growth Rate: Nitrate nitrogen is immediately available for plant use. The result is accelerated leaf and shoot growth.
- Balanced Nutrition: Micronutrients helps photosynthesis, enzymes & overall plant health. Balanced feeding helps to avoid common problems such as yellowing leaves or weak roots.
- Versatile Use: Great for soil, hydroponics or drip irrigation. Growers can blend it with other fertilizers or apply it by itself for easy feeding regimens.
How to Use Cal-Trate
Here are the simple steps to prepare and apply the fertilizer:
- To obtain approximately 100 ppm nitrogen, dissolve 8.6 ounces of Cal-Trate in 100 gallons of water. Whisk to dissolve any clumps and until completely dissolved.
- Repeat treatment every 7-14 days during the growing season. Use a lighter dose for younger plants or seedlings. Use full strength for advanced plants.
