Long-acting fertilizer for flowers. Instructions for the use of complex mineral fertilizer "Agrovitakva-AVA". We fertilize correctly: fruit trees

Osmokote mineral fertilizer was first introduced to the United States in 1967. Scotts has developed a unique production technology. All micro and macro elements necessary for plants are securely “sealed” in granules. The release process occurs gradually and lasts a long time. It can be used for any vegetable crops, indoor and ornamental plants.

There are 13 different types of Osmokot produced in the USA. In the Russian Federation, fertilizers of the Osmokot group have been officially registered quite recently. In European countries (Germany, Belgium, Holland), more than 80% of the purchases of coated fertilizers fall on this brand.

Products are packaged in sealed bags, protected from sun and moisture. Each granule contains potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen. In addition, the exact dosage contains: magnesium, zinc, manganese, iron, molybdenum, boron, copper. The rate of occurrence of elements in each Osmokot brand will vary.

Mechanism of action:

1. Useful substances are dissolved by water from the inside through the semi-permeable shell of the granule (membrane).
2. The release occurs due to osmotic pressure, regularly and at a constant rate.
3. At the end of the period of action, the remains of the granules are processed in the soil by bacteria.

Each brand of Osmokot fertilizer has its own cycle of work in the ground. The destruction of the shells occurs only at a positive temperature. The higher the temperature, the faster the process will be. Longer grades have greater shell thickness. Granules of different types differ in color, they can determine the effect of the drug:

• red 3–4 months;
• brown 5–6 months;
• blue 8–9 months;
• yellow 12–14 months;
• purple 16–18 months

Attention! Nine types of Osmokote received an official patent for sale in the Russian Federation.

At the moment, the manufacturer has developed and produced four generations of fertilizer.

Main advantages of technology

1. Safety for the environment and humans.
2. Minimal risks of soil salinization and burns of the underground parts of plants.
3. Fertilizer granules remain in the soil and are not washed out with water.
4. Action throughout the growing season.

It also has a positive effect on plant immunity. Cultures are less likely to be affected by infectious, viral diseases. Decorative ones increase the duration of flowering, plantings develop faster, and the time to harvest is reduced.

You can apply this fertilizer in any weather. A single spring application provides nutrition to the roots for the entire season. Osmokot is also used in indoor crop production, in closed greenhouses. Peat substrate manufacturers purchase Osmocote for nutrient potting mixes. The following brands can be purchased in the Russian Federation: Blum, Pro, Exact Standard, Exact Standard High K, Exact Hi-End. Each brand has several variants of different composition and duration.

There are competing analogues of Osmokot fertilizer on the market. However, according to the test results, they are significantly inferior in quality to the original products.

There are no shortcomings in Osmokote. In some reviews, this is a high price for fertilizer and an infrequent appearance in specialized stores.

Application methods and dosage

Fertilizer is added to the soil in various ways. The most common is mixing with the soil when preparing a nutrient mixture. Wet soil with the added additive is used for two weeks. Salinity levels may increase in mixtures that are stored longer.

For potted seedlings, it is more convenient to apply the product into the prepared hole. Use a fertilizer of a short duration (3-4 months). The seedling is placed on granules sprinkled with earth to avoid direct contact. There is an option when the preparation is closed up on both sides of the root system of the plant.

Fertilizer granules are applied superficially, without digging deep into the ground. This is convenient for wide flowerpots with flowers or seedlings. Watering is carried out with water +15 ° C.

Advice. The granules are taken out of the package carefully so as not to violate the integrity of the shells.

In terms of consumption, Osmokot fertilizer is very economical. Dosage for some crops:

• seedlings (berry, vegetable, medium-sized indoor) 1–1.5 g per 1 liter of soil;
• small shrubs (young rose, juniper) about 10 g;
• garden trees (above 1m) 80 g;
• tall bushes 100 g.

By action, the most prolonged brands are chosen for indoor plants, for winter crops - of medium duration, with a short period of action for seasonal country plants.

Long-acting fertilizers "Bazakot Plus" (Basacote Plus) are complex granular fertilizers with controlled release of nutrients with a validity period of 3, 6, 9 or 12 months.

Fertilizers "Bazakot" contain all the nutrients necessary for healthy plant growth. When using fertilizer "Bazakot" no additional top dressing is required.

The principle of the fertilizer

Granular fertilizer is based on the principle of precise placement of nutrients under a layer of polymer shell. The elastic membrane of the capsule retains its properties throughout the entire working period: the shell is not damaged by mechanical action on the soil or a decrease in temperature (it withstands temperatures below minus 20 degrees).

The shell consists of an elastic polymer that breaks down slowly in the soil and guarantees the availability of substances depending on the needs of the plants. Each granule of "Bazakot" contains all the nutrients, which gives a uniform distribution of fertilizer in the substrate. All the necessary nutrients and trace elements (B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Zn) are placed directly under the shell layer of each granule.

controlled release

Each plant has its own growing season. Therefore, you can buy fertilizer in 4 versions - with a duration of 3, 6, 9 or 12 months.

The release of nutrients depends on soil temperature. Fertilizer of the prolonged action "Bazakot" guarantees controlled allocation for all climatic zones. The release of nutrients from the fertilizer granule meets the requirements of the plants during their growing season. The action of "Bazakot" begins at temperatures above 0 degrees Celsius. The higher the soil temperature, the faster the plant will develop, and the release of nutrients from the "Bazakot" granule will also be faster. Thus, you will get the programmed effect of feeding your plants. The level of soil acidity, the content of salts and microorganisms in it do not affect the release of nutrients from the granule "Bazakota"

Types and periods of release of nutrients

Application rates

The amount of fertilizer applied depends on the type of fertilizer and the nutrient requirements of the plant. You will find the application rates for each "Bazakot" fertilizer on the page with its description.

When preparing a large volume of substrate, the recommended dose is 2.8 kg per 1 m³. Also in the assortment there is a fertilizer for potted crops - Basacote Tabs, the granules of which are collected in convenient tablet cones. One such cone weighs 7.5 grams.

This is done for the convenience of those who grow plants in pots and containers. 1 cone (tablet) is the optimal dose for 1 2L pot. For a 3 liter container. - the norm is 2 tablets, for 4.5 liters. - 3 fertilizer tablets. Validity - 6 months.

Safe for plants and the environment

"Bazakot" (Basacote®) - safe complex fertilizer for optimum and uniform development of plants. Even when the roots come into contact with a fertilizer granule, the plant does not get burned.

Fertilizer "Bazakot" is harmless to the environment due to minimal leaching. Since the fertilizer is in granules, it remains available to the plants for a long period.

Other fertilizers do not give such an effect. Most of them immediately go into the soil - this excludes the stable absorption of macro- and microelements by plants. Such fertilizers pollute the environment to a greater extent. Fertilizer of the prolonged action "Bazakot" does not cause salinity of the soil.

The shell of the "Bazakot" fertilizer granule not only provides a controlled release of nutrients, but also allows the granules to be in direct contact with the roots of the plant. Some time after fertilizing, you may notice how the roots wrap around the fertilizer granules, and this does not cause burns or other damage to them.

In addition, the doses of Bazakot long-acting fertilizer are lower than those of instant-acting fertilizers, which makes their application faster and safer.

The polymer shell for granules is also manufactured at the high-tech plant "Kompo". This gives a guarantee of quality control at all stages of production. You don't have to worry about nutritional releases varying from batch to batch. Fertilizers "Bazakot" will provide reliable top dressing every year.

Package

You can buy fertilizers in 25 kg and 15 kg packages for Bazakot Mini. Packaging - a dense three-layer bag (film-foil-film), which guarantees the protection of the fertilizer from external influences. "Bazakot Tabs" (Basacote Tabs) and "Bazakot Mini" are packed in convenient plastic containers.

Doses can be reduced or increased by 10-20% depending on the season and the condition of the plant.

How to apply

The type of fertilizer is selected based on which plant and when to feed. One package is enough for about 15 square meters. m. The most favorable time for this will be the growing season of the plant. At this stage, one procedure is enough, in total there should be no more than 2-3 of them per season. The very first is carried out during the spring planting of seedlings or sowing seeds.

A prerequisite is that the granules are introduced into the upper, previously loosened and watered soil layer. The temperature at this time should be at least 15 degrees - at a lower temperature, nutrients are released more slowly. If this figure is above 20, then the dose will need to be reduced by 1-1.5 kg.

In the case of making granules during planting, it is necessary to make a hole, add no more than 50 g to it. fertilizer, plant seedlings and cover with earth. It will be possible to water it after a day, it cannot be done immediately. When top dressing during the growing season, you should carefully loosen the soil, make in it, at a distance of 1-2 cm from the bush, a hole as deep as a little finger, put a few granules there and press down with a substrate. It will be possible to water the soil only the next day.

For indoor plants, everything looks the same, only here, during the growing season, the consumption per 1 kg of pot volume is only 2-4 g. In the case of a flower transplant, the fertilizer consumption per 1 g will be from 50 to 150 g.

These fertilizers are not intended to be dissolved in water or other liquid, they are used only for application to the soil in their pure form. Despite the naturalness of the composition, at this time you should use:

• gloves;
• bandage on the mouth and nose;
• headdress;

VIDEO: Long-acting fertilizers (Osmokot). Advantages and disadvantages

Bazacot is a complex fertilizer for plants, which is popular in Europe. It is produced in the form of granules and in the form of tablets. The preparation is intended for various climatic zones. This is the most effective type of fertilizer, which is not affected by the level of soil acidity, its composition.

Basacote

Basacote is manufactured by the well-known company "Compo", which is located in Germany. The uniqueness of the drug lies in the gradual, prolonged release of useful components into the ground. This is a highly effective tool that is designed to create substrates and as top dressing. It is also added directly to the planting holes.

The size of the granules is from 2.5 to 3.5 millimeters. Their upper part is covered with a polymer film, under which all the necessary substances are located. Means in the form of tablets are often used to fertilize flowers in flowerpots.

Prior to contact with the substrate, the granules have their original properties. Also, their components do not go into the soil during the frost season. But during the growth of cultures, trace elements leave the capsules, dissolving in the liquid, thus creating a highly concentrated solution. An important advantage of such a fertilizer is that it is always evenly distributed in the soil. This ability of his gives high results in the cultivation of different types of plants.

Advantages

Fertilizer is safe for the environment. Its components do not pollute the earth. The environmental friendliness of the drug lies in small doses of application. This is what makes Bazakot even safer and more effective.

Main advantages:

• to achieve a high result, one application is enough;
• the product is 100% absorbed by plants;
• replaces a number of seasonal dressings;
• slight leaching;
• thanks to small granules, there is a uniform placement of components;
• does not lead to salinity of the substrate;
• does not cause plant burns even with direct contact of the roots with the capsules.

Using Basacote, you can forget about the use of other fertilizers forever. Additional preparations will not be required due to the complete provision of plants with the necessary set of useful components throughout the season.

Important! The tool can be used for most types of plants.

Since each type of crop has its own growing season, the company has developed 4 types of fertilizer. Between themselves, they differ in the duration of action (three, nine months, six months, a year).

Composition

All active ingredients are in chelated form. This structure of the granules allows it to be fully assimilated by cultures. The composition of the fertilizer includes:

• N ≈ 16%;
• K2O ≈ 12%;
• P2O5 ≈ 8%;

• S ≈ 5%.

Fertilizer Bazakot is rich in many trace elements that are necessary for indoor and outdoor crops. The preparation contains Zinc (about 0.02%), Manganese (about 0.06%), Molybdenum (about 0.015%), Boron (about 0.02%), Iron (about 0.4%), Copper (about 0 .05%).

Instructions for use

The amount of the applied preparation depends on its type and the need of plants for useful microelements. The optimal rate is from 2.5 to 3 grams per liter of substrate. With a large amount of soil, 2.8 kg of product per 1 m 2 should be used.

The use of tablets is somewhat different. One piece of the drug should be added to a 2-liter pot. For vessels with a volume of 3-4 liters, you will need to use 3 tablets. The period of validity of this type of top dressing is one year.

Important! The agent does not accumulate in fruits and therefore is not capable of harming human health.

The calculation of the amount when applying to the hole is calculated based on the size of the plant and tree. With a trunk volume of 3 to 30 cm, the optimal dose of fertilizer is 10-120 grams. The tool begins to act immediately after the air temperature rises above 0 0 C.
