Cal-Mag Dextro-Lac®

Cal-Mag Dextro-Lac®

Description

THE DEXTRO-LAC® ADVANTAGE

Agro-K’s Cal-Mag Dextro-Lac®, a foliar micronutrient, is derived from calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate. A series of proprietary manufacturing processes are used to separate the calcium and magnesium from their carbonate molecules and link them to polysaccharide molecules creating a nutrient product linked to a sugar base. The term Dextro-Lac® is used to convey the process and resulting product. The Dextro-Lac® process creates a foliar calcium-magnesium product that can quickly penetrate plant tissue – leaves, buds, fruit skin and bark. Nutrient uptake happens directly through the cell walls. Once inside the cell, the calcium and magnesium polysaccharide molecules are easily metabolized and mobilized by the plant system.

Directions For Use
Foliar: Apply 1 to 4 quarts per acre (2.5 to 10 liters per hectare) with sufficient water for thorough coverage. For best results, spray in early morning or late afternoon. Do not apply during the “sunlight” hours when air temperature is above 85° F/30° C. Foliar fertilization is intended to supplement standard ground fertility programs and will not by itself provide all nutrients normally required by agricultural crops. Ground: Apply 2 to 6 quarts per acre (5 to 15 liters per hectare). Ground application can be via conventional ground sprayer or metered through irrigation. If you have any questions regarding mixing or application rates contact your Agro-K dealer before using this product.
