Description

Blood & Bone Liquid Fertiliser

Blood & Bone Liquid is a balanced liquid fertiliser containing all the major and minor elements required for healthy, strong growth, and improved yields and quality.

The Blood and Bone provides organic material, protein, amino acids and cholesterol, which feed plants and the soil’s micro-organisms, an integral part of the organic cycle. The soil organisms break down organic material into humus, release locked up nutrients, as well as improving the fixation and release of nitrogen and the soil structure.

Regular use of Blood & Bone Liquid Fertiliser helps to increase the number of earthworms, soil microbes and bacteria working in biologically active soil. The formulation of Growth B&B Liquid Blood and Bone allows some of the nutrients to be immediately available to the plant through the foliage as well as the roots. The remaining nutrients, including the finely ground bone particles, attach to the foliage and permeate the soil dissolving gradually, slowly releasing nutrients to continue to feed plants through the foliage and the soil.

Blood & Bone Liquid Fertiliser is a totally balanced fertiliser, which can be used as a total replacement fertiliser or as a supplement to a conventional fertiliser program.

Blood & Bone Liquid Fertiliser can be applied using conventional ground or air application equipment and can be applied through overhead irrigation or other fertigation systems.

Blood & Bone Liquid Fertiliser will supply the plant with all major nutrients and trace elements and also, by making the cells elongate and divide more rapidly, ensure the plants getaway to an early, healthier start. This means, potentially, early and higher quality yields.

Plus Giberellins (GA), Triacontanol (TRIA) and organic material.

Growth B&B Liquid Blood and Bone also contains two naturally occurring growth promotants, Gibberellins (GA) and Triacontanol (TRIA). These have been widely proven to significantly increase growth rates, crop yields and plant health and they especially contribute to recovery from stress as in transplant shock or adverse climatic conditions. These growth regulators stimulate the plant to take up and use all available nutrients.

TRIA is a naturally occurring plant hormone found in all plants but has particularly high concentrations in Roses and Lucerne. Tria causes plant cells to divide, promotes early root growth and will increase the rate of photosynthesis. This means that plants can still grow to their full potential even in less than ideal growing conditions.
GA is also a naturally occurring growth hormone. In the plant, Gibberellic Acid causes the plant cells to elongate. It helps promote flowering and fruit set and is widely used in horticulture, grape production and pasture crops on its own.

Of particular interest to growers will be the positive effect on crop quality, yields and the Brix/Acid ratio. Several physiological effects have been observed, including rapidly increased levels of reducing sugars, free amino acids and soluble protein. There is a consistent increase in the Nitrogen content of plant samples and in the redistribution of Nitrogen within plants. Also evident are increases in carbohydrate synthesis from the stimulation of photosynthesis and changes in the activity of several enzymes have also been recorded. These factors will make a significant contribution to flavour, appearance and keeping qualities for all crops treated with Growth B&B Liquid Blood and Bone.

I love this product as it is so easy to use and great for my garden. Another advantage for me is that it is the garden that actually gets in & not my dogs who usually follow me around eating the dry stuff-or sneak back later! 🙂

All tropical fruit, Berries, Nuts, Grapes etc.	Dilute with Water Between 1:100 and 1:200	Spray to run off on a regular basis to maintain adequate nutrient feeding of the tree. Determine timing through leaf analysis or other acceptable management practices. Use 0the higher dilution rate for poor quality soils or where fruit load requires higher levels of nutrition. If mixing with Insecticides or Fungicides always check for both Physical and Chemical Compatibility. Add Growth B&B to the spray tank last.
Hydroponics & Fertigation	All Crops		Growth B&B may be used on its own as the prime source of nutrients. In this case, charge diluter of feed tank with a 1:10 dilution and adjust the feed rate to achieve desired CF (Conductivity Factor). NOTE a dilution of 1:200 will yield a CF of approximately 20. Alternatively add Growth B&B into the feed tank as a booster rate of 1 litre in 200 litres of feed concentrate. Check system regularly for biological oxygen demand (BOD), flush and use fresh material if necessary.

Answered by the admin
The recommended mix ratio of 1:200 equates to 50mL Blood and Bone Liquid Fertiliser to 10L water, this can then be used as a watering liquid around the root zone or as a foliar spray. Repeat every 10-14 days.
