How
do we get Nutrients in these forms?
We
at Gro-Mor believe that by using the proper high quality raw materials
in a monitored production process we can produce a special product, which
results in a high percentage of readily available nutrients that the plant
can immediately use for absorption, feeding, and growth. Our nitrogen
sources include granular urea, and ammonium hydroxide. Our phosphorus
source is phosphoric acid which is a very highly concentrated form of
ortho-phosphate molecules. Yes, that's right!!
The same kind that plant roots take in!! Potassium comes from potassium
hydroxide; a clear, colorless liquid which has a high concentration of
recoverable potassium molecules.
Industrial
By-Products in GRO-MOR'S Fertilizers?
| No!!
Gro-Mor does not use industrial by-products in manufacturing
fertilizer, unless they have been proven by laboratory testing to
be of absolute high purity and extremely low metal content. Although
we are bombarded by requests from manufacturers to utilize their by-products
(at a fraction of the cost that we pay for high quality virgin raw
materials) we do not stoop to pay the low prices that these manufacturers
are requiring, because we do not want to pass the impurities in their
products on to you, the farmer, thereby potentially contaminating
your soil. Recent publications have pinpointed the dangers of using
some of these fertilizers. |

Placement: Your planter may be set up to apply starter fertilizer
on the seed, below the seed, to the side of the seed, below and to the
side of the seed, or split between 2 of these option. Great yields have
been obtained from all of these application methods - the selection depends
mainly on your soil type, depth, stoneyness, average rainfall, time of
planting, tillage methods, etc. You should consult with your Gro-Mor Representative
for the best method to use on your farm, and be willing to experiment
from time to time.
