     Guaranteed trace elements- Every Nutriculture formula comes with a guaranteed analysis of trace elements, insuring that the exact nutrients your crop needs for profitable growth are exactly what it gets. No more no less.
     Nutriculture formulas offer a total nutrient feed, with guaranteed amounts of these chelated elements: sulphur, boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, zinc and calcium and magnesium where applicable, as well as the primary N P K requirements. For a complete breakdown of guaranteed analysis, PPM and EC readings on any formula please Contact Us and request a technical data sheet.
     Quality thats unsurpassed- Nutriculture formulas promote predictable crop response bag after bag because of stringent quality control of both raw materials and finished product. From total solubility to crop response, growers know what to expect when using Nutriculture, and they count on it.
     Choosing a formula- Listed below is a sampling of some of our more popular formulas for use in growing greenhouse crops. In addition we have other formulas that are designed for tackling specific problems such as pH of growing media and water, or an imbalance of minor elements. Knowing what's in your water and growing media is the first step in choosing the right fertilizer. Help is available through your state universities, independent labs or you can Contact Us for a test kit.
     The PLUS in each of these formulas indicates that it contains a minor element complex of boron, copper, Iron, manganese, molybdenum, zinc, and sulphur. Many formulas also contain magnesium and calcium. See the application rates Chart for PPMN application through injectors, the Tank Mix Chart for direct application, and the Chart of EC readings for using various formulas.

     Potash Special 10-20-30 PLUS   Ideal for overcoming potash deficiency or for building up hardiness and tough fibrous qualities of stems and leaves. Promotes winter hardiness by helping to build a carbohydrate reserve.
     Blooming and Flowering Special 12-31-14 PLUS   A great general purpose fertilizer for any blooming, fruiting or flowering plants. Also excellent as a starter fertilizer for seeds and seedlings.
     Super Start 12-45-10 PLUS   A starter solution which promotes faster root development on seeds and transplants, without burning.
     Hi-K Special 13-0-44 PLUS   Ideal for overcoming potash deficiency or for building up hardiness and fibrous qualities of stems and leaves.
     Plug Special 13-2-13 PLUS  with 6% Ca and 3% Mg   A plug growing formula with high nitrate nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, and minor elements, most derived from the sulphate form, and all combined into a totally soluble mix.
     Cal Mag fertilizer 14-0-14 PLUS  with 6% Ca and 3% Mg   Excellent plug formula when phosphorous is not needed or is being supplied through acidification. Will promote excellent root development with good healthy chloroplast cell development Note: Slightly basic. Know your waters bicarbonate count before using on plugs.
     Hi Cal Special 15-0-15 PLUS   With 10.5% Calcium.   This formula supplies most of its nitrogen in the nitrate form and is an ideal feed for crops responsive to nitrate nitrogen during low light periods and all ammonium sensitive plants. It is also an ideal source of calcium that is immediately available and ideal for overcoming a calcium deficiency.
     Poinsettia Special 15-5-25 PLUS   A general purpose feed for poinsettias grown in peat-lite media. It has increased amounts of magnesium, molybdenum and zinc. Promotes excellent color, sturdier stems and improved all-around growth and disease-resistance. Most of the nitrogen is in nitrate form for feeding during low light periods.
     Potted Plant Special 17-0-17 PLUS   With 4% Calcium and 2% Magnesium.   This formula contains Calcium, Magnesium and a very high ratio of nitrogen in nitrate form and has an almost neutral pH, making it ideal as a general purpose feed for Geraniums and neutral pH loving plants that are grown in low light situations. It is effective for growers with alkaline water. Due to an almost neutral potential basidity it can be used more frequently with less effect on the growing medias pH than the 15-0-15 or 15-5-15.
     Cal Mag Special 17-5-17 PLUS  with 4% Ca and 1% Mg   Very close to the perfect fertilizer all in one bag. It contains all the major and minor nutrients including phosphate, calcium and magnesium in a highly soluble form. High Nitrate to ammonia ratio. The ratio of phosphorous to nitrogen is tuned to reduce stretch.
     Geranium and Bedding Plant Special 17-17-17 PLUS   This formula contains almost half of its nitrogen in nitrate form and has an almost neutral pH, making it ideal as a general purpose feed for Geraniums and neutral pH loving plants that are grown in low light situations. It is effective in controlling the color in Pink Hydrangeas and as an occasional Lily food.
     Hi Nitrate Special 20-5-30 PLUS   This formula allows plants to establish heavier, thick walled cells. Promotes top growth and extensive root and tuber development.
     General Purpose 20-7-20 PLUS High Magnesium   This formula supplies over half of its nitrogen in the nitrate form and is an ideal feed for crops responsive to nitrate nitrogen during low light periods. An ideal formulation for growers with a high sodium level in their water. The interjection of a antagonistic ion like magnesium decreases the negative effects caused by sodium. Also an excellent feed for poinsettias because of increased magnesium and moderate potential acidity.
     General Purpose 20-10-20 PLUS   A general purpose fertilizer where additional amounts of nitrate nitrogen are required. This formula has more of its nitrogen in the nitrate form and assures better nitrogen control when feeding in cool dark months.
     General Purpose 20-20-20 PLUS   Specially formulated as a general purpose feed for use on ornamental plants, small shrubs, grasses, fruits and vegetables, and other intensely cultivated crops.
     Hi Acid 28-8-18 PLUS   Excellent for Strawberries, Grapes, Azaleas, Rhododendrons, Camellia, Gardenia, and Bush Fruits: Blueberries, Currants, Gooseberries, Raspberries, etc.
