BEST Herk 3000™ Foliar Fertilizer is a high-phosphate product that enhances plant growth by providing essential nutrients and micronutrients, utilizing a proprietary blending system to reduce ammonia loss and allow safe application near germinating seeds. It offers rapid nutrient absorption—up to 90% within one hour—making it 8-10 times more effective than soil feeding, while its comprehensive nutrient profile includes magnesium sulfate, chelated micronutrients (such as iron, manganese, copper, and zinc), and extra sulfur. The fertilizer promotes quick uptake for healthier growth, improves the availability of essential minerals, and allows flexible application under various conditions, all while being compatible with agrochemicals to reduce operational costs, ultimately maximizing crop performance and resilience.
1. High Phosphorus Content: H3K provides elevated levels of phosphorus, essential for energy transfer and root development, promoting flower bud formation and optimal reproductive growth.
2. Low Potassium Levels: By using lower potassium, H3K directs more energy toward flowering and fruiting rather than excessive vegetative growth, enhancing overall reproductive output.
3. Rapid Foliar Absorption: The proprietary blending system allows for quick nutrient uptake, with up to 90% absorption within one hour, ensuring plants receive essential nutrients at critical flowering and fruiting stages.
4. Chelated Micronutrients: H3K contains chelated micronutrients like zinc and boron that support vital processes such as pollen formation and fertilization, contributing to improved flower and fruit development.
5. Balanced Nutrient Availability: Low potassium levels help prevent nutrient imbalances, ensuring adequate absorption of other essential nutrients like calcium and magnesium, which are crucial for healthy flowering and fruiting.
6. Enhanced Stress Management: The formulation supports better stress management during flowering and fruiting, allowing plants to allocate resources effectively, resulting in stronger flower and fruit development.
7. Improved Yield and Quality: By optimizing nutrient availability and enhancing metabolic processes, H3K leads to healthier, more robust crops, ultimately improving yield and fruit quality during the reproductive stages.
High phosphorus levels promote flower bud formation, leading to increased fruit set and improved yield.
H3K’s formulation allows for quick absorption of nutrients through the foliage, ensuring crops receive essential nutrients when they need them most.
The combination of premium nutrients and chelated micronutrients enhances the efficiency of nutrient uptake, leading to healthier plant growth.
Phosphorus aids in root growth, which improves nutrient and water uptake, supporting overall plant health and resilience.
The presence of essential micronutrients strengthens plants’ immune systems, enhancing their resistance to diseases and environmental stressors.
Lower potassium levels prevent nutrient imbalances, ensuring that crops have access to other essential nutrients like calcium and magnesium, which are vital for overall health.
H3K improves plants’ ability to manage environmental stresses, leading to healthier crops during challenging conditions.
The foliar application of H3K minimizes nutrient loss through leaching, ensuring that nutrients are effectively utilized by plants.
Enhanced nutrient uptake by crops leads to better soil structure and fertility over time as organic matter increases with healthy crop growth.
Healthy root systems contribute to soil aeration and structure, reducing compaction and promoting better water infiltration.
H3K’s efficient nutrient delivery system reduces the need for excessive soil amendments, minimizing potential negative impacts on soil and water systems.
Healthier plants provide organic matter and nutrients that support beneficial soil microbes, enhancing soil biodiversity and fertility.
By improving plant health and nutrient uptake, H3K helps maintain a balanced nutrient profile in the soil, promoting long-term fertility.
Feature | BEST H3K | Market Alternatives |
|---|---|---|
P & K Balance | High phosphorus, low potassium for better fruiting | Higher potassium, which may favor vegetative growth |
Micronutrients | Rich in easily absorbed chelated nutrients | Fewer, less absorbable micronutrients |
Absorption | 90% absorbed within 1 hour | Slower absorption |
Nutrient Loss | Reduced ammonia loss | Higher nutrient loss |
Enviro Impact | Lower runoff, more eco-friendly | Higher risk of runoff |
Use BEST Herk 3000 (H5K) Foliar Fertilizer for healthy growth before flowering begins.
