Important Tips
- Don't Overdo It: Excess phosphorus can lock out iron and zinc. Always follow label rates. Less is often more.
- Pair with Nitrogen in Early Growth: This is a bloom formula. For vegetative stages, use Maxsea 16-16-16 or 20-20-20 first.
- pH Matters: For best absorption, mix into water with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5 (soil) or 5.5–6.0 (hydroponics).
