Description
Calcium Nitrate Van Iperen Horticultural Grade is a highly pure Calcium fertilizer that dissolves rapidly and completely. Our product has limited caking sensitivity and is recommended as of early spring until fruit setting and fruit development. The high level of Calcium improves the strength of cell walls during active cell division stages. The presence of Nitrogen has a positive effect on the uptake of Calcium in the plant.
- Improves fruit quality (less sensitive to bitter pit and blossom end rot) and shelf-life
- Developed for fertigation in open fields and greenhouses. Also suitable for foliar application
Characteristics
- Low on heavy metals
- Low on Sodium and Chloride
Compatible with other fertilizers, except Sulphate or Phosphate fertilizers. Therefore a separate tank is needed or fertilizers should be applied at different times.
