It is a versatile nitrogen and calcium fertiliser used as a supplementary fertiliser for plants during the growing season.
Granular, fully soluble calcium nitrate is ideal for foliar application and irrigation.
Suitable for all fertiliser systems.
It is an excellent and desirable source of nitrogen and calcium for garden, kitchen garden, greenhouse, ornamental and landscape plants.
When calcium is deficient, the leaves of plants are smaller and diseases primarily affect young leaves and growth points.
Calcium deficiency leads to poor root development, weaker roots, less nutrient uptake and poorer water availability.
Calcium deficiency makes berries and fruits more decayed, less resistant to deformation and slower to fruit set in ornamental plants.
Calcium nitrate stabilises soil pH. Fertilisers are free of chlorine, sodium and heavy metals.
It improves the conditions for plants to absorb other nutrients from the soil, such as potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg).
Calcium nitrate is an indispensable source of soluble calcium and nitrate nitrogen, especially for plants under stress (drought, frost, improper maintenance).
Due to its excellent absorption properties, it is readily degradable in soil.
Particularly suitable for more acidic soils and mossy lawns as it does not acidify them.
Suitable for all flowers, especially bulbs.
Promotes better fruit colouring, making the fruit firmer, less splitting and cracking, improving transport and storage properties.
Calcium nitrate should be used in particular when there are cracks in the skin of tomatoes; when there are physiological, necrotic leaf spots; when there is drying and falling of the inflorescences; when there is a lack of light.
Do not fertilise ericaceous plants.
Fertiliser rate: 10-30 g/10 l water for irrigation, 50 g/10 l water for spraying.
