Fully water-soluble balanced fertilizer for foliar application, fertigation and application through watering. The 18-18-18 formula provides balanced feeding with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, helping plants maintain good vitality, steady vegetative growth and better overall performance throughout the growing season.
It stands out because it is not just a standard NPK. Nutrient Express technology combines macronutrients, trace elements, seaweed extracts, amino acids, natural carbohydrates and a multi-vitamin complex, aiming for better foliar uptake and a fast nutritional response. It is ideal when you want balanced support without pushing only vegetative growth or only flowering too strongly.
| Macronutrients | % w/w |
|---|---|
| Total Nitrogen (N) | 18.0 |
| Nitrate Nitrogen (N-NO₃) | 5.5 |
| Ammoniacal Nitrogen (N-NH₄) | 4.9 |
| Urea Nitrogen | 7.6 |
| Phosphorus Pentoxide (P₂O₅) | 18.0 water-soluble |
| Potassium Oxide (K₂O) | 18.0 water-soluble |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 0.50 water-soluble |
| Trace elements | % w/w |
|---|---|
| Boron (B) | 0.02 |
| Copper (Cu) | 0.05 EDTA-chelated |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.10 EDTA-chelated |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.05 EDTA-chelated |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 0.001 |
| Zinc (Zn) | 0.05 EDTA-chelated |
| Chlorine (Cl) | maximum 0.025 |
| Use | Indicative dose |
|---|---|
| Foliar application | 2.5–5 kg / ha |
| Backpack sprayer | 6 g / L |
| Vegetable transplants | 500 g / 100 L water |
| Transplanting per litre | 5 g / L |
| Repeated applications | 3–5 applications every 7–14 days |
| Fertigation | use according to standard fertigation practices |
| Practical calculation | Nutrient Express quantity |
|---|---|
| 1 litre water, backpack sprayer | 6 g |
| 5 litres water, backpack sprayer | 30 g |
| 10 litres water, backpack sprayer | 60 g |
| 1 litre water, transplanting | 5 g |
| 10 litres water, transplanting | 50 g |
For a backpack sprayer, the indicative dose is 6 g per litre of water. For transplanting, the dose is approximately 5 g per litre of water. For sensitive plants or potted plants, always start more carefully and observe the plant’s response.
In addition to the balanced NPK base, it contains trace elements, magnesium, seaweed extracts, amino acids, natural carbohydrates and a multi-vitamin complex. This makes it more specialized for foliar application and fast nutritional response.
It can be used with great care and lower intensity, mainly on plants that are in active growth. For indoor plants, prefer conservative use and avoid applying it to a very dry or already stressed growing medium.
Avoid combining it with dormant oils, lime sulfur, lime-based preparations and very alkaline spray materials. When using it in a spray solution, keep good agitation until the product is fully dissolved.
Application is best done in the morning or afternoon, under mild temperatures. Avoid spraying in strong sun, heatwaves or on plants that are already visibly stressed.
Close the package well after each use and store it in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place, away from moisture, intense heat and direct sunlight.
