Down To Earth Langbeinite (Sul-Po-Mag) - 5 lb (6/Cs)

Down To Earth Langbeinite (Sul-Po-Mag) is a naturally occurring mineral fertilizer that provides three essential plant nutrients in one convenient application. This unique combination of potassium, magnesium, and sulfur makes it an ideal soil amendment for gardeners, farmers, and horticulturists who want to enhance plant health, increase crop quality, and improve soil fertility.

With its balanced nutrient profile and fast-acting formulation, Langbeinite ensures that plants receive the potassium needed for fruit production, magnesium required for chlorophyll synthesis, and sulfur for enzyme activation. Whether you're growing vegetables, fruits, flowers, or trees, this organic mineral supplement provides the essential elements required for vigorous plant growth and maximum yield potential.

Why Choose Down To Earth Langbeinite?

Langbeinite, also known as Sul-Po-Mag, is a highly effective and naturally derived soil amendment that corrects common nutrient deficiencies while supporting plant vigor, drought resistance, and overall productivity. Unlike many synthetic fertilizers, Langbeinite is non-toxic, does not contribute to soil salinity, and is safe for organic gardening.

Key Benefits:

• Provides Three Essential Nutrients – Supplies 22% potassium (K₂O), 11% magnesium (Mg), and 22% sulfur (S) in a single application.
• Boosts Fruit & Flower Quality – Potassium enhances flavor, color, and size of fruits and vegetables while improving flower production.
• Supports Photosynthesis – Magnesium aids in chlorophyll synthesis, ensuring healthy, vibrant green foliage and efficient energy production.
• Enhances Enzyme Function & Soil Health – Sulfur activates key enzymes that improve nutrient absorption and plant metabolism.
• Encourages Stronger Roots & Drought Resistance – Helps plants develop deep, robust root systems for better moisture retention and nutrient uptake.
• Fast-Acting & Highly Soluble – Quickly dissolves into the soil, allowing for rapid nutrient availability without excessive buildup.
• OMRI Listed & Approved for Organic Farming – Certified for organic gardens, sustainable agriculture, and environmentally friendly soil management.
• Non-Synthetic & Naturally Sourced – Derived from natural mineral deposits, making it safe for long-term soil enrichment.

How Langbeinite Supports Plant Growth

Langbeinite provides an essential trio of nutrients that play a vital role in overall plant health, development, and productivity.

• Potassium (22% K₂O)
• Strengthens cell walls and improves stress resistance.
• Increases fruit and vegetable yields, promoting larger, sweeter produce.
• Enhances disease resistance and nutrient transportation within plants.
• Magnesium (11% Mg)
• Essential for chlorophyll production and photosynthesis.
• Supports protein synthesis and enzyme activation for healthy plant metabolism.
• Prevents yellowing of leaves (chlorosis), especially in magnesium-deficient soils.
• Sulfur (22% S)
• Boosts enzyme activation for efficient nutrient absorption.
• Improves soil structure and microbial activity.
• Enhances flavor, aroma, and nutritional content in fruits and vegetables.

By providing a balanced supply of these three key nutrients, Langbeinite promotes stronger, healthier, and more productive plants while ensuring long-term soil health.

• Incorporate evenly and water thoroughly to activate nutrients.
• Established Plants & Trees:
• Apply ½ cup per plant, working into soil around the base of the plant.
• For fruit trees, apply 1-2 pounds per inch of trunk diameter, distributing evenly around the root zone.
• Lawn & Turf:
• Apply 5-10 pounds per 1,000 square feet, using a broadcast spreader for even distribution.
• Water immediately to aid absorption.
• Container Plants & Raised Beds:
• Mix 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of soil or 1 cup per cubic foot of potting mix.
• Reapply every 4-6 weeks for continuous nutrient support.
• Hydroponic & Soilless Applications:
• Dissolve ¼ teaspoon per gallon of water, adjusting based on plant needs.
• Ensure proper mixing before applying to hydroponic systems.

Best Practices & Storage Recommendations

To maximize the benefits of Down To Earth Langbeinite (Sul-Po-Mag), follow these best practices for application and storage.
