Available P2O5 (Phosphorus): The 4.0% phosphorus content is vital for root development and helps in the efficient transfer of energy within the plant, supporting overall growth and bulb formation.

Soluble Potash (K2O): With 4.0% potassium, this fertilizer enhances the plant's ability to resist disease, regulate water usage, and improve overall nutrient transportation within the plant.

This nutrient blend is specifically tailored to meet the needs of garlic and Allium crops, ensuring that they receive the balanced nutrition necessary for optimal growth and productivity.

Application Recommendations

Garlic Blend 6-4-4 is versatile and easy to apply, making it suitable for various stages of garlic cultivation and other Allium crops.

Before Planting: Incorporate up to 20kg per 50m² (44lbs per 500ft²) into the top 5cm (2 inches) of soil to prepare the bed for planting. This application provides a nutrient-rich foundation for your crops.

Top Dressing: Apply 15ml (1 tablespoon) per plant or 1 L (4 cups) per 2 m² (20ft²) once every 4-6 weeks or as needed throughout the growing season. This helps to maintain nutrient levels in the soil and supports ongoing plant health.

For Soils with Low Nutrient Holding Capacity: In cases where the soil has a low nutrient holding capacity, a springtime top dressing application may be beneficial to ensure that your crops continue to receive the nutrients they need.

Weight to Volume Conversion

Garlic Blend 6-4-4 has a specific gravity of approximately 1.08, which allows for easy conversion between weight and volume, ensuring precise application:

• Tablespoon (15ml): 16g
