Crystal Green® Fertilizer
CROP NUTRITION
Rethinking Phosphorus
Unlike conventional phosphate fertilizers, Crystal Green responds to crop demand, naturally releasing phosphorus, along with nitrogen and magnesium (5-28-0 with 10% Mg). This unique solubility ensures your crops have access to the nutrients they need during the critical stages of growth and development. By putting crops in control of their nutrition, the efficiency of fertilizer is greatly improved. Even in soils with challenging pH levels, one application of Crystal Green will remain plant available throughout the growing season and reduce the amount of phosphate applied by 25% or more.

HOW CRYSTAL GREEN WORKS
Get to the Root
Crystal Green releases nutrients in response to organic acids naturally exuded by roots. As these organic acids solubilize Crystal Green, nutrients become over 90% plant available. With ongoing access to phosphorus, driven by crop demand, Crystal Green safely and precisely supplies crops with the nutrients they need to maximize yield and increase ROI.
BENEFITS
Driven by Crop Demand
Crystal Green’s unique organic acid solubility, rather than traditional high-water solubility, optimizes nutrient uptake and reduces nutrient loss to soil tie-up and other environmental factors. When growers choose Crystal Green, they are using a fertilizer that keeps nutrients available to crops all season, reduces application rates and improves the environment.
