Osmocote Blend 18-5-12 (8-9M) 50 lb

Description: Osmocote Blend 18-5-12 (8-9M) is a controlled-release homogenous fertilizer that is expertly crafted to provide a balanced supply of nutrients to a wide range of plants. This product is well-suited for use in nurseries, foliage cultivation, flower beds, and landscapes. With its unique composition and smart-release technology, Osmocote Blend ensures that plants receive consistent nutrition over an extended period, promoting healthy growth and development. What It Is:Osmocote Blend 18-5-12 (8-9M) is a granular fertilizer that features a Quickstart formulation designed for general-purpose use. The numbers in the product name represent the N-P-K ratio, indicating that it contains 18% nitrogen, 5% available phosphate, and 12% soluble potash. This blend also includes essential micronutrients such as magnesium, sulfur, iron, manganese, and zinc, which are vital for plant health. How It Works:The product consists of 100% resin-coated N-P-K nutrient granules combined with uncoated prills and STEP Hi-Mag granular micronutrients. The uncoated water-soluble granules provide a quick release of nutrients, which is particularly beneficial for establishing newly planted plants and flowers. The resin-coated nutrient cores absorb moisture and then slowly release the nutrients over a period of up to 8-9 months, aligning with the plant's growth cycle. This slow-release mechanism helps prevent nutrient leaching and ensures efficient use of the fertilizer. How to Use: Incorporation: For incorporating into growing media, blend the granules evenly to ensure uniform distribution. Avoid over-mixing to prevent damage to the fertilizer coating. The growing media should be used within two to four weeks after incorporating the fertilizer. Top-Dressing: For top-dressing applications, evenly spread the fertilizer on the container surface or around the plants in the landscape, taking care not to pile the granules against the plant stem. Refer to the rate tables on the bag labels and product information sheets for the correct application rates. Where to Apply: Nursery Stock: Ideal for providing sustained nutrition to plants being grown for future transplanting. Foliage: Supports the health and vibrancy of indoor and outdoor foliage plants. Flower Beds: Encourages robust blooms and strong root systems in both annual and perennial flowers. Landscapes: Enhances the overall growth and appearance of landscape plants, including shrubs and trees. Safety Precautions: Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Handling: Use gloves when handling the fertilizer and wash hands after use. Environmental Considerations: Apply the product as directed on the label to minimize the risk of nutrient runoff, which can be harmful to the environment. By adhering to these guidelines, users can effectively utilize Osmocote Blend 18-5-12 (8-9M) to nourish their plants, leading to improved plant health and vigor. Always read and follow the label instructions for the safest and most effective use of the product.
