Folisol 15-30-15
The starter formulation — double phosphorus for roots and flower initiation.
NPK 15-30-15 + ME carries double the phosphorus of a balanced feed, which makes it the formulation for the two phases where phosphorus decides the outcome: root establishment after transplanting, and the initiation of flower buds. Used in the first three to four weeks after planting it builds the root system that carries the whole season; used again before flowering it strengthens bud set.
Characteristics
- Double phosphorus — 30% P2O5 — for rooting and flower initiation
- The standard starter feed for transplanted vegetables, strawberry and young trees
- Complete chelated micro-element package included
- Also valuable as a pre-flowering application
- 100% water soluble, suitable for drip and foliar
- Builds the root system that determines the rest of the season
How it works
Fully water-soluble crystalline NPK dissolves completely and feeds through the drip line or the leaf surface, so the nutrient reaches the root zone in the ratio the crop needs at that growth stage rather than the ratio the soil happens to hold. The included chelated micro-elements cover the trace demands that a straight NPK leaves unmet.
Dosing

Doses are indicative. The user is responsible for adjusting the dose to the growth stage of the crop and the conditions of the field. Apply under the guidance of an agricultural technician. Composition, method of application and dose may vary between countries for climatic, technical or legal reasons.
