Key Features and Benefits
Balanced Nutrient Composition: The 4-10-3 formula provides a balanced mix of essential nutrients—4% nitrogen, 10% phosphorus, and 3% potassium—tailored to support root growth and overall plant health. Nitrogen encourages healthy foliage; phosphorus is crucial for root development, and potassium aids in overall plant vigor and disease resistance.
Stimulates Root Growth: With a high phosphorus content, the Fertilome Root Stimulator & Plant Starter Solution is designed to stimulate early and robust root formation. This is particularly important when transplanting plants, as it helps them to establish quickly in their new environment, reducing the risk of transplant shock.
Reduces Transplant Shock: Transplant shock can significantly impact the growth and health of newly planted trees, shrubs, and other plants. This solution mitigates these effects by promoting faster root establishment and providing the necessary nutrients to support the plant through this critical period.
Contains B-1 and Indole Butyric Acid: In addition to the N-P-K nutrients, the solution is enriched with vitamin B-1 and indole butyric acid (IBA), which are known to enhance root development and plant resilience. These components work synergistically to support the plant during transplant, ensuring a smoother transition and better growth outcomes.
Wetting Agent for Improved Absorption: Including a wetting agent in the formula ensures that the solution is evenly distributed in the soil, improving the roots' absorption of nutrients and moisture. This helps maximize the root stimulator's effectiveness and promotes healthier, more robust plants.
Application Instructions
For Trees, Shrubs, and Flowers:
- Mix 3-1/2 tablespoons of Fertilome Root Stimulator & Plant Starter Solution per 1 gallon of water.
- Apply the solution around the base of the plant after transplanting.
- For larger plants, use 1 to 8 pints of the solution per plant, depending on the size of the plant and the root ball.
For Houseplants:
- Use 1/2 cup of the solution per quart of soil.
- Apply the solution to the soil after planting or repotting to help establish strong roots.
Frequency of Use:
- Apply the solution whenever you plant or transplant trees, shrubs, roses, annuals, and perennials.
