Calcium nitrate (calcium nitrate)

Calcium nitrate is considered the most useful and important fertilizer for the garden. Since it must be used for seedlings, at the time of growth and for the prevention of the development of diseases that actively attack the plant.

It is better to use this type of fertilizer on sod-podzolic soils, slightly acidic and acidic. Thanks to the use of top dressing, the nutritional value of the soil is increased, as well as its friability. Therefore, when air enters, pathogenic bacteria and fungi die.

Terms of application

It is necessary to make saltpeter in the spring, when there is active plowing of the land. Due to the timely application, trace elements can be absorbed into the root. And also give the opportunity to actively develop the plant. When applied in another period, there will be no active influence on the yield.

Plant nutrition options

The most popular and effective feeding option is root. To do this, it is necessary to add granules during plowing the land or water the soil with a diluted solution.

There is also a more effective method, but it must be remembered that it is used in emergency situations and is used for spraying with a spray gun and use a less saturated solution. Most often, foliar top dressing is used for fruit trees and grapes to increase sugar content.
