QUELANT®-K is a foliar
applied amino acid based potassium supplement. It contains free L form
amino acids which increase the uptake of the potassium and other nutritional
elements by the plant.
Applications
Use QUELANT-K throughout the growing season to increase potassium levels
in turfgrass and other plants. Regular applications of QUELANT-K improve
stress tolerance from heat, drought, cold, traffic, disease, and other
adverse conditions.
Dosage
Apply 1.5 - 2.0 fl. oz. per 1000 sq. ft. every 15-20 days. During summer
and fall, increase application frequency to improve stress tolerance
and enhance synthesis of carbohydrates and proteins.
Observations
Turfgrass requires potassium in relatively large amounts, second only
to nitrogen. Potassium is not a constituent of living cells but is essential
in turfgrass growth and development. It plays an important role in:
-carbohydrate synthesis and translocation
-amino acid and protein synthesis
-catalytic reactions including nitrate reduction
-regulating transpiration
-controlling the uptake rate of certain nutrients, and
regulating respiration.
Potassium may be present in large quantities in soils, but very small
amounts are in the available form (K+). Potassium is held strongly by
clay particles in fine textured soils and easily lost by leaching on
sandy soils (greens). QUELANT-K provides the essential L amino acids
necessary to enhance potassium levels within the plant regardless of
most soil adverse conditions.
QUELANT-K is environmentally
safe and non-phytotoxic. It is tank mix compatible with normally used
agrochemical products, except products containing calcium or magnesium.
Good management practices suggest conducting a standard jar test prior
to tank mixing. QUELANT-K is an alkaline product with a pH of 11.5.
If a neutral or acid solution is desired in the tank-mix, lower pH by
adding phosphoric acid or any other buffer. In case of contact with
skin or eyes, wash immediately with water.
