1.
Is designed to be superior to “water soluble” foliar nutrients. May
also be used in soil applications.
2.
Higher nutrient metal package than in competing “soluble” blends
3. Low biuret levels and thiosulfate content adds to safety when making foliar applications
4.
Non chloride potassium sourcing adds safety to chloride sensitive crops.
(Doesn’t add chlorides to soils already high in salt.)
5.
Nutrient metals (boron, iron, manganese and zinc) are fully chelated.
Chelating agents include EDTA and citric acid.
6.
All nutrients are in liquid solution. No fall out in drip lines or drip
tapes. No sludge in the bottom of a mixing bucket.
7.
Compatible with most insecticides, fungicides and neutral fertilizers.
8. Very low salt index.
GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 is an economical foliar nutrient package that can be used on most crops. Soil application is recommended where high levels of potash are required.
Directions for Use
This
product is a chloride-free, lo-biuret fertilizer. GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 + 4%S
can be used in foliar applications, foliar-drench applications and direct
application to the soil.
Foliar
applications should be made in concentrations no greater than 1 quart in 10
gallons of water. Turf applications can be made in concentrations up to 2
quarts in 10 gallons of water. Foliar drench applications may be made in
lieu of direct application to the soil. Foliar drench applications should
be made at concentrations equivalent to 1 gallon GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 + 4%S in 300
to 500 gallons water. Direct soil applications may be made via drip,
microsprinkler, sprinkler or direct injection into the soil as in sidedress or
listing operations. GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 + 4%S may also be
sprayed on the soil and watered in. Rates for drench/soil application listed
below are for broadcast application. In strip or band applications
place material where root uptake may be expected. Strip or band
application rates may be reduced proportionately.
Where
GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 + 4%S is injected in drip, drip tape or micro sprinklers, a
jar test for compatibility is recommended.
GOLD’n GRO 6-3-9 + 4%S is compatible with most insecticides and fungicides. When in doubt, perform a jar test or contact your supplier. When combining with insecticides or fungicides follow the manufacturer’s instructions as to placement, dilution rates and all other precautions.
