Fertilizer Chelated Iron FE 11% DTPA 5 LBS

11% IRON CHELATE is a fully chelated, water soluble, powdered form of iron DTPA and is recommended for the prevention and correction of iron deficiency in crops. The preferred use is as a soil application to prevent the deficiency although it may also be used as a foliar spray to provide correction when a soil application is impractical. DIRECTIONS FOR USE SOIL APPLICATION: 11% IRON CHELATE is recommended for use on acid and mildly alkaline soils. To ensure uniform coverage, 11% IRON CHELATE should be dissolved in water or fluid fertilizer, or dry blended with water soluble fertilizers. For trees or individual plants, the chelate may be blended with an inert (such as soil or sand) or sprinkled directly on the soil uniformly under the plant's drip line, then watered in. Soil applications may also be made by dissolving in water and then mixing or metering into drip, sprinkler or furrow irrigation systems. FOLIAR APPLICATION: 11% IRON CHELATE may be applied in water or in combination with most pesticides. After the correct dilution has been made, the spray solution should be buffered to pH 6-6.5. Thorough coverage and the use of wetting agents often enhance nutrient uptake from foliar sprays. Application rates and dilution factors depend on crop sensitivity, the amount of foliage to be sprayed and the application method. Avoid applying this product when plants are suffering from moisture stress. If there is any doubt, apply the spray solution to a small test area of the crop or foliage to assess any undesirable effects or phytotoxicity before general application.
