It is also used on other crops tobacco, for example which have high potassium and magnesium demand, yet are sensitive to chlorides. Replacement of K, Mg and S Potassium, magnesium and sulfur are three basic nutrients essential for plant growth and vital to profitable crop production. Readily Soluble K-Mag Premium is totally water soluble, providing potassium, magnesium and sulfur in a form readily absorbed by plants. The rapid solubility of the product is a special benefit in the production for short-season crops, especially in areas of cold soils and limited rainfall or irrigation. It also helps activate more than sixty enzymes, making them available to stimulate other chemical processes within the plant.
Adequate potassium is essential for fruit formation, optimum yields and high quality.
Magnesium activates a large number of enzymes in the plant and is also required for the synthesis of chlorophyll - the vital green pigment necessary for sugar manufacturing in plants. Sulfur activates a number of enzymes, is vital to the formation of amino acids, is crucial in the production of protein and is especially important to plants with high oil content.
