• Phosphorus (10%) – Promotes root development and enhances flower production

• Potassium (10%) – Strengthens plants, improves drought resistance, and elevates flower quality

When and How to Apply

• Seasonal Timing: Avoid extreme heat and apply during cooler parts of the day (morning or evening) to prevent stress

Safety and Application Precautions
