Fertiliser for me

[Muhammad Arif Khan]

Grow More markets almost a 100 mixes of fertilisers catering for special requirements of every one.
I, having gone through various recommendations and literature on the subject have decided to formulate only two for all of my requirements.

I, Starter/finisher NPK 10-30-20 with trace elements.
To be applied to seedlings in more diluted form and again at pre flowering stage.
II, Growth promoter NPK 20-10-20
I intend to use Urea, DAP, SOP and Nitro Phos.
Any Comments?

Sir, please check and try, Sarsabz Can of Fatima Fertilizer
Sarsabz Calcium Ammonium Nitrate (CAN)
26% N (Dual Nitrogen) - 13% Nitrate and 13% Ammonical

Other than Nitrogen, it supplies additional 5 elements required for plant growth:
Potassium - 0.9%
Calcium - 10%
Magnesium - 0.05%
Sulfur - 0.4%
Copper - 0.001%
I haven't tried it but i will.

An excellent suggestion, I will use CAN and not urea.
How about ratios? do you approve.

The ratios mentioned above do not click for me.

I seldom apply any fertlizers but when i have to my choice is William Sinclair's Liquid Tomato Food having NPK 4 - 4 - 8 + trace elements, seaweed extract. Reason being that it composition is ideally suited for all my vines (Clematis, Jade Vine, Wisteria etc), all bulbs & Rhizomes (Amaryllis, Daffodils, Daylilies, Kniphofia, Bearded Irises, Louisiana Irises etc), Fruit trees, and lastly Roses.

SOP 8Kg
Fe Sul 2Kg
Mag sul 1Kg
Borax 50gm
Zinc Sul 25gm
Mng Di oxide 20gm
Copper Sul 10gm

2 Kg in 10 L gives a stock of 18400PPM N,
Dilute according to requirement.


Mix B

400>800 PPM N or 275gm per 100sq feet
