Finally, a fertilizer supplement designed specifically for Southern Alberta's unique climate. Developed by a Calgarian chemical engineer, these fertilizer supplements are formulated to meet the precise needs of Southern Alberta's growing seasons and plants. Grown in Alberta, for Albertans.
This supplement is amazing for correcting iron deficiencies in all plants. Iron deficiency is commonly caused by cool soils, root decay pathogens, and soils that have become waterlogged due to poor drainage or excessive watering.
Iron Chelate is a stable and long-lasting supplement. When iron is absent in plants, they struggle, or unable, to produce chlorophyll thereby resulting in declining health. Recognizable primarily by chlorosis (yellowing) in the foliage, if left untreated the foliage can completely turn brown and die off.
Why use Iron Chelate?
” Iron availability: If the pH balance in the soil is too high (alkaline) iron can become locked up. Chelated iron becomes available even in unbalanced pH soils.
” Chelation: This process involves binding iron to an organic molecule. This creates a stable and long lasting supplement, even in challenging soils.
” Addresses chlorosis: Chlorosis is a slow and insidious problem. Frequently misdiagnoses as a watering issue, once correctly identifies iron chelate addresses and fixes the problem.
