Potassium Schoenite

It is a natural trace mineral that comes from ancient sea beds. A source of essential nutrients in water contains:

• Potassium (K): An essential nutrient for maintaining plant health, cell structure, water management and a major contributor to stress tolerance.
• Magnesium (Mg): Essential for chlorophyll production, enzyme function and overall plant health.

Sulfur (S) – Essential secondary macronutrient, that stimulates protein formation in plants and enzyme systems, thus improving the availability of other single nutrient fertilizers.

Product Specifications:

• Water-Soluble: Promotes uniform K, Mg and S distribution to all plant tissues for reliable nutrient supply.
• Completely Natural: This essential nutrient comes from ancient seabeds where miners hand-select Potassium Shonite.

Balanced Nutrient Profile: Contains a mix of K, Mg and S required for numerous processes within the plant.

Product Benefits:

• Targeted Potassium: Shonite is an immediate supply of K to correct low-down deficiencies without raising high pH affecting Nitrogen and Phosphorus stock in the soil.
• Increases Plant Strength and Stress Resiliency: Sufficient K, Mg, & S encourage sturdy cell walls; strong roots; greater ability to resist heat, cold & drought stress.
• Fruit Quality: Potassium benefits the growth, size, colouration and firmness of most crop fruits. The type with high potassium demand during the fruit development stage can be beneficial for crops.

Other advantages of Mg and S: Magnesium (Mg) aids in healthy plant growth, and chlorophyll production; while Sulphur (S) promotes the best nutrient uptake.

Application Versatility with Potassium Shonite:

Greenhouses and Hydroponics Use: Suitable for water-based nutrient delivery systems because of their great solubility.

Soluble Fertilizer Formulations: Include Potassium Shonite in water-soluble fertilizer formulations for fertigation & foliar spray applications (please do the compatibility trials).

The time of application and duration for which the Potassium Shonite is applied will depend upon on crop to be grown, stage of growth etc.

During Growing Season (As Needed): Application based on soil tests and crop needs with adjusted frequency or duration. Because of K, Mg and S, there is a potential role for Potassium Shonite to be useful at different stages.

Fruit Development and Ripening: Potassium is critical during this period. Focusing Applications of Potassium Shonite to Increase Fruit Development and Promote Superior Size, Quality, Firmness.

In Stressed Conditions: Potassium Shonite is a boon with its foliar applications during stresses such as heat waves, and droughts.

• Always wear suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) whilst dealing with the product.
• The product should be safely kept in a cool dry place away from the sun.
• Always do a compatibility check before full-scale production.

2-3 years when stored in an original unopened container under cool, dry conditions.
