Sonite-23 (Potassium Sonite K-23%)
It is a unique source of plant nutrition since three essential nutrients are naturally combined in to one mineral. It provides a readily available supply of Potassium, Magnesium and Sulfur to growing plants in an ideal ratio.
Potash (K2O) – It is known as the quality nutrient. It promotes healthy root systems, increases plant vigor and resistance to disease and cold. It is also essential in sugar and starch formation, and the movement of nutrients through plants.
Magnesium (Mg) – It is the central element of the chlorophyll molecule, the pigment molecule responsible for absorbing sunlight during photosynthesis. It acts as both an enzyme activator and a constituent of many enzymes. Providing Magnesium and Potassium in the proper balance, Potassium Schoenite helps in increasing plant strength and builds resistance to winter kill, drying, insect attack and spray damage.
Sulfur (S) – It helps build proteins in plants and is a key component of many unique traits. It puts the “green & leafy” into crops like spinach, while giving garlic and asparagus their distinctive flavors and improves the quality of wheat. Sulfur deficiencies are of particular concern as sulfur dioxide emission-reduction programs cause less sulfur to be returned to the soil via atmosphere. Potassium Schoenite provides an adequate supply of sulfur for healthy crop production. Because it is in the sulfate form, it aids initial root growth which is important in rapidly growing crops and promotes seed production and vigorous plant growth.
Potassium Schoenite is readily water soluble and immediately available to plants. It has a neutral pH, and does not contribute to soil acidity or alkalinity. This makes it differ from other common sources of magnesium (such as dolomite) which will increase soil pH and from elemental sulfur or ammonium sulfate which will lower the soil pH.
It is effective on all soil types, irrespective of pH. Usually, it is useful for all crops for faster & healthy growth.
Features :
- Resists Leaching : Unlike other nutrient sources, it is 100 percent water soluble. Mesh size of Potassium Schoenite is in between 200-250 µm for fertigation or spray application. The solubility rate depends on its soluble chemical nature and its particle size. So, it dissolves slowly, resisting rapid leaching from the soil.
- Essential Chloride-free : It has low salt index and is virtually chloride-free. So, it is frequently used in situations where a fertilizer free of Chlorine is desirable. It is thus an ideal K, Mg and S source for Chloride and salt-sensitive crops such as fruits, vegetables, grapevines, hops, potatoes, sunflowers, sugarcanes, tobacco and forest trees.
- Provides Balance Of Nutrients : The deficiency of any essential nutrients limits crop yields & crop quality, even when all other nutrients are present in adequate amounts. It supplies K, Mg and S in a balanced proportion that fits the nutrient needs of many crops.
- Neutral Soil pH : Regardless of application rate, it does not change soil pH because it is a neutral salt.
- Increases Profit Per Acre : Higher crop production can be measured in yield as it increase the grain fill, colour, weight, firmness, size and general appearance that exponentially increase the value and profitability of any given crop.
- Environmental Friendly : It is eco-friendly, as recognized as safe. It has no restrictions for environmental or nutritional use when used at typical agronomic rates.
Application :
- For Foliar application, Spray 5-8 g per litre of water at 15 days interval during flowering and fruiting stage.
