AF Nurture N

The benefits of AF Nurture N

• Powerful natural chelating agent that slows oxidisation and converts elements into readily available, bio-available nutrients with a small molecular size allowing fulvic chelated minerals rapid entry through the plant cells.
• Has a strong CEC, an ionic bond that stores and releases nutrients and trace elements when required by the plant, and is extremely important for transporting nutrients from the soil to the plant minimising leaching and run off, and also assisting in root zone moisture retention. These molecules are attracted to the depletion zone of the plant root (positive (cation) attracted to the negative (living root). Complexes with Urea to create a stable unit (research has suggested that the urea will last up to 80 days when added with humate) reducing ammonia volatilisation therefore a better effect with less burning and less N loss. Perfect for liquid N applications.
• Complexes Phosphorus as Humate Phosphate, keeping it more available for the plant and not locked away in the soil.
• Great for direct soil application for rooting. Foliar application gives quickest response for nutrient application. Perfect for young plant application.
• Helps protect and improve soil health by fostering the development of beneficial soil micro-organisms as well as feeding the natural soil flora and fauna helping to increase the available organic carbon content which protects the background carbon.
• Provides a good natural carbon source for healthy microbes to feed upon in the soil, offering plants the required necessary carbohydrates and trace minerals that they need.
• Contains organic matter and humic acid, which are both powerful fungal promotants vital for a healthy, active soil. Increases the growth in Cellulose Digesting fungi which increases the OC in the soil. The root’s negative charge is greater than humic acid biomolecules’ negative charge, the micronutrients are taken up by the plant’s root and are absorbed by the plant’s circulation system.
• Contains many trace and ultra trace minerals. This is a critical factor because a balanced and consistent supply of trace minerals is essential for microbes to survive and thrive. The micro-nutrients and other nutrients contained are available for quick uptake by plants, simply because they are derived from plants. This is important for the microbes that depend on trace minerals as catalysts in order to produce enzymes that enable critical biochemical transformations.
