Fertibor Boron (50 lb)
For Correcting Boron Deficiencies
Boron is an essential micronutrient needed for plant development. Fertibor Boron, mined and purified boron, should be used in very small amounts (2-10 lb/acre) because it can become toxic to plants if over-applied.
Symptoms of Boron Deficiency:
Deficiencies often manifest as dead, malformed, or discolored growing points.
Common signs include cracked stems (celery), hollow hearts (peanuts), deformed fruits, and yellow/brown leaves.
Key Benefits of Boron in Plant Development:
Structural Integrity: Boron is vital for cell wall synthesis and stability, aiding in cell division and expansion.
Reproduction & Yield: It plays a crucial role in pollen germination, pollen tube elongation, and seed and fruit development, significantly affecting the number of flowers and fruit set.
Sugar & Energy Transport: It aids in the movement of sugars and carbohydrates from leaves to growing areas, ensuring plants have enough energy.
Root & Shoot Growth: It supports the development of new plant parts, preventing stunted growth.
Nutrient Uptake & Metabolism: Boron promotes Nitrogen fixation in legumes and helps in the absorption of calcium, magnesium, and potassium
- Fertibor is a slow release, 15% boron for soil application.
- Highly soluble
- To calculate them amount of Fertibor required, multiply the elemental boron required by 6.6 (based on a soil test)
