Dependable controlled feeding of nursery, greenhouse, foliage, landscape, bedding and potted crops.

NUTRICOTE works like no other controlled release fertilizer.

When NUTRICOTE is placed in the soil, the granules begin to absorb moisture through the coating membrane. This moisture then dissolves the nutrients inside the capsule, which, in turn, builds up an osmotic pressure. The nutrients can then diffuse through the coating. The amount of release agent contained in the coating determines how porous the coating is, which determines how fast the nutrients will diffuse in the root zone.

The keys to the controlled release of NUTRICOTE.

Temperature
The nutrient release of NUTRICOTE is moderately affected by temperature. As temperatures warm in the spring and cool in the fall, the release of nutrients will increase or decrease. This keeps the rate of release synchronized with the rate of plant growth.

Soil Moisture
Soil moisture levels do not significantly affect the nutrient release of NUTRICOTE.

Soil type and pH
Release is not affected by soil type or soil pH and NUTRICOTE does not depend on microbiological decomposition for its action.

Available in a variety of formulations and release periods to fit your every need.

NUTRICOTE Controlled Release Fertilizer comes in five different fertilizer analyses and seven different release periods designated by Types ranging from 40 to 360 days.

Bottom line, NUTRICOTE delivers all of these important benefits in a single controlled release fertilizer.

• Superior control of nutrient release for the most efficient return on your fertilizer investment
• Eliminates the need for labor-intensive late-season reapplications of fertilizer
• Reduced leaching, so optimum fertilizer levels are maintained
• A high degree of plant safety when compared to similar products - reduced salt build-up
• Flexibility in periods of release, ranging from 40 to 360 days at 77 F (25 C)
• Contains the highest NPK components: NPK+ME, DAP, Potassium Sulfate and Calcium Nitrate
• A durable, resilient and uniform resin coating on each granule, with no cracks, preventing uncontrolled nutrient release or breaking when mixed with soil
• Every particle uniquely homogenous to insure consistent analysis
• Consistent particle size for easier and more precise mechanical distribution
• Higher nitrate nitrogen content in comparison with most other coated fertilizers
• Can be incorporated in the growing media or top-dressed
• Consistent rate of release provides steady feeding according to your plants' nutritional needs
