Basacote® High K 12M is a fully coated controlled-release NPK complex fertilizer. The elastic polymer coating ensures an even nutrient release for 12 months. The climate-adapted release (CAR) technology is linked to ambient temperature and guarantees nutrient availability according to individual plant requirements. The coating and release rates are not affected by soil properties such as pH, microbial activity or salinity.
Basacote® High K 12M is ideal for depot fertilization of substrate mixtures and top dress for crops with a high demand in potassium. Well-suited for P-sensitive crops or soils.
Mixing into substrate is recommended directly before use (maximum storage time: 10 days). The product lasts 12 months under temperate conditions and constant temperature of 21 °C.
