Description
COMPO EXPERT Floranid® Twin Permanent 16-7-15 +2%MgO
Floranid® Twin Permanent contains Compo Expert’s unique slow-release nitrogen sources, Isodur® and Crotodur® in addition to both nitrate and ammonium nitrogen. These four nitrogen sources work in combination to provide a consistent slow release pattern over four months, reducing nutrient losses due to leaching.
Floranid® Twin Permanent contains phosphorous which helps to promote root and shoot development, making it a great option for pre seed fertilisation. The high proportion of potassium contributes to overall plant health by keeping cells turgid and improving the movement of water through the plant. Floranid® Twin Permanent also contains 2% magnesium to improve photosynthesis and stimulate a natural, green appearance to the turf.
The fine granulation makes Floranid® Twin Permanent suitable for cutting heights down to 6 mm and with each granule containing all the nutrients, an even effect across the surface is assured. The nutrient composition of Floranid® Twin Permanent is also ideal for fertilising ornamental plants, shrubs and trees.
