SPROUT Granular Microbial NPK Blend (SNPK) is a granular version of liquid Sprout Microbial Soil Conditioner (SSC) and SPROUT Biological Nutrient Supplement (SNS) combined into a single solid formulation which is 100% organic.
USES
- soil preparation/conditioning
- NPK fertilizing
- improving efficiency of
- chemical fertilizer
|
As a soil conditioner SNPK improves soil fertility and aeration by adding beneficial micro-organisms (bacteria and fungi) to the soil which through natural activity :
| > |
transform naturally occurring major and minor nutrients in the soil into plant usable form. |
| > |
break down residual deposits left by chemical fertilizers into plant usable form. |
| > |
decompose organic matter and extract nutrients in plant usable form. |
| > |
break the life-cycle of harmful pests in the soil leading to eradication. |
| > |
fix atmospheric nitrogen. |
As a nutrient supplement SNPK provides plants with all the mineral macro- and micro-nutrients essential for plant growth and development.
SNPK is quite economical with an application rate of 50 kg/acre.
SNPK also works on weaker soils when adding organic matter and/or compost and increasing the dosage. |
BIO-CHEMICAL APPLICATION
SNPK improves the efficiency of chemical fertilizers like Urea and NPK by mixing SNPK 1:1 with Urea or NPK. The amount of chemical fertilizer used may be reduced to 50% as much as is normally used without SNPK.
Apart from yield increases, and cost savings, soil condition will no longer deteriorate, but in fact improve.
ORGANIC APPLICATION
To grow totally organic produce, use SNPK on its own or combine with SNS with no chemical herbicides or pesticides.
After 3 years of organic application, soils should be free of chemical fertilizer residue and produce could be considered organically grown.
SNPK is suitable for vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, flowers, herbs, shrubs, trees, grasses etc.
