Recommendations for use of Solucros®

HIGH-GRADE WATER-SOLUBLE SOP for fertigation

A minimum 51% K2O (42% K) and 46% SO3 (18.5% S) content supplying a very high concentration of nutrients.

 

COMPATIBILITY

  • Solucros is compatible with most other soluble fertilizers within normal concentration ranges, except with those containing calcium, which causes precipitation of calcium sulfate.
  • Solucros is also compatible with most pesticides and fungicides.
  • It is recommended that Solucros is dissolved first, before addition of other fertilizers, especially those containing magnesium.

PREPARATION OF SOLUCROS STOCK SOLUTIONS

  • Calculations for specific solution concentrations are provided as follows.
  • A typical scenario is that a nutrient solution (in the irrigation system) of 80 mg K per liter requires a stock solution (in the tank) of 3.78 kg Solucros per 100 liters of water, injected into the system at a dilution rate of 0.5%
  • The following formulae may be used for calculations

Nutrient solution (K ppm or K mg/l) = 42.3 x concentration of stock solution (kg Solucros per 100 l water) x % injection rate

Stock solution (kg Solucros per 100 l water) = 0.0236 x concentration of nutrient solution (ppm K or mg K/l) / % injection rate

DIRECTIONS FOR USE OF SOLUCROS

  • Fill the tank with water to at least two-thirds of its capacity. With highly alkaline water (pH > 8), it is recommended to first acidify the stock solution before adding Solucros.
  • Add Solucros, taking care not to exceed the maximum recommended concentration of 10 kg/100 liters of water (100 g/liter). Maintain stirring throughout the entire operation.
  • Complete filling the tank with water and check product has dissolved completely before injection into the irrigation system.
  • In common with most solid fertilizers used in irrigation systems, the use of filters is recommended.
  • It is highly recommended to conduct a small-scale trial in order to check the compatibility of the mixture before large scale operation and injection into the irrigation system.
  • Always refer to precautions stated on the bag when using the product.
  • The use of filters is recommended, as is generally advised for most solid fertilizers when used for foliar spraying.
  • Always refer to precautions stated on the bag when using the product.
