• Verify your product analysis, longevity and rate for your plants in your production system. For further guidance contact your local ICL Specialty Fertilizer Territory Manager or call ICLSpeciality Fertilizer Customer Service at 800-492-8255.
• Rate tables are printed on bag labels and can be found on product information sheets as well as on www.icl-sf.com.
• For incorporation, blend into growing media to ensure uniform distribution of fertilizer prills. Do not over-mix to avoid damaging fertilizer coating.  Growing media should be used within two to four weeks after incorporating fertilizer.
• For top-dress applications, refer to suggested rate tables on bag labels and product sheets. Uniformly spread fertilizer on container surface; avoid piling fertilizer dose directly against plant stem.
• Irrigate after application. Irrigation frequency and volume should be adjusted during the production cycle according to plant type, environmental conditions and desired soluble salt levels.
• A product trial is recommended before adopting a new fertilizer program or making full-scale changes to standard cultural practices. Test several rates on representative plant types.
• Use caution when applying to plants being over-wintered under cover. If you cannot monitor soluble salts and/or adjust irrigation practices, avoid Fall and Winter application.
• Product storage: Store in a clean, cool, dry place.  Re-seal opened bags by folding top down and securing.
