Granulated sulfur Vigor S Pro 5 kg
- The "Wigor S Pro" fertilizer is intended for the fertilization of soils with a sulfur deficiency, also to regulate soil acidity and to fertilize sulfur-loving plants.
Destiny
The "Wigor S Pro" fertilizer is intended for fertilization of soils showing sulfur deficiency, also to regulate soil acidity and to fertilize sulfur-loving plants such as: rape, peas, legumes, brassica, sugar beet and red beet, onion vegetables, radish, tomatoes, pumpkin, beans, melon, cucumber, pepper, potatoes, as well as wheat, barley and corn, as well as fruit and ornamental plants. In horticulture, it is a particularly recommended fertilizer for rhododendrons, blueberries, heathers and other acidophilic plants. It reduces the soil pH required for proper growth and development of ornamental plants from the heather family. The "Wigor S Pro" fertilizer is a pre-sowing fertilizer. Works well on alkaline and neutral soils.
Properties
The bentonite contained in the fertilizer, due to its swelling properties in contact with water, breaks down sulfur and, as a result, faster oxidation by microorganisms to the sulphate form, which is available for plants.
The yield-generating effects of fertilizer sulfur are revealed by:
Direct increase in yields - sulfur increases the effectiveness and efficiency of nitrogen fertilization (through better uptake and use of nitrogen).
Improving the quality of the crops:
Reducing the content of nitrates in vegetable plants,
Increase of starch content in potato tubers and sucrose in sugar beet roots,
Increased protein content in seeds, sulfur amino acids (cysteine and methionine) are absolutely necessary for protein synthesis
It improves the taste of plants such as: onion, garlic, leek and legumes.
Improvement of carbohydrate management - which indirectly increases plant tolerance to abiotic stresses (too low and high temperatures, water shortage).
Manner and dates of fertilizer application
For winter plants on arable land, the fertilizer should be used for sowing plowing. In the case of spring sowing or planting plants, it should be used for winter plowing, and possibly also for spring plowing. In other cases, it is recommended to mix the fertilizer with the soil to a depth of 15 cm.
In the cultivation of perennial legumes, the fertilizer should be applied in accordance with the rules of fertilizing these lands in the spring, before or at the beginning of the start of vegetation. The fertilizer should be spread evenly over the entire surface of the field in a way that excludes fertilization of fields and crops not intended for this. Do not use doses higher than recommended.
The fertilizer should be applied 5-10 cm from the row of growing plants or sown seeds. Due to its acidifying effect, it should be used on soils with a regulated soil reaction, especially in the cultivation of plants sensitive to pH, such as rape, wheat, highbush blueberry, cranberry. In the case of highbush blueberry crops, fertilize along the row of plants 60-80 cm wide, taking care not to cover the plants. It is best to apply the fertilizer before or after the vegetation ends (calculating the fertilizer application area based on the width and length of the plant row). After application, the fertilizer should be mixed with the soil.
The size of the fertilizer doses
Vegetable plants with a very high demand for sulfur (with an average yield, these plants consume 40-80 kg S / ha) - recommended dose 30-50 kg of fertilizer / ha (24-40 kg S / ha): rape, broccoli, horseradish, kale, cauliflower, kohlrabi, cabbage (white, red, Italian), radish, radish, turnip, onion, garlic, leek, chives.
Vegetable plants with high sulfur demand (with an average yield, these plants consume 20-40 kg S / ha) - recommended dose 20-30 kg of fertilizer / ha (16-24 kg S / ha): legumes (broad beans, peas, beans), perennial legumes, sugar and fodder beets, rutabaga, red beet, carrot, tomato.
Plants with an average requirement for sulfur - recommended fertilizer dose 15-20 kg of fertilizer / ha (up to 20 kg S / ha) cereals, grasses, pastures, meadows, corn, barley, potatoes.
