Plant Doctor MaxGreen (1L)
MaxGreen Hi-N & Iron Liquid Fertiliser
16% Nitrogen; 5% Iron (Fe); 2% Sulphur (S)
Supercharged with Fulvic acid
Provides a highly available form of liquid Iron (Fe) along with Nitrogen (N) to produce rich green colour in leaves & help correct to iron deficiencies in your lawn, plants & crops.
The Fulvic Acid will supercharge the nutrient uptake providing fast results. It will help prolong the life of the nutrients, holding them for longer where they are needed, reduce leaching (run-off).
- Can be applied to the leaves (Foliar), then watered in to the soil to prolong the life of the nutrients.
- Will help maintain plant growth & deep green colour in turf & plants.
- Will help correct yellowing in new leaf growth.
Iron (Fe) is a vital micro-nutrient required by plants in order to form chlorophyll. And chlorophyll is what gives plants/lawn their green colour. Iron deficiency occurs when there is either not enough iron in the soil, or the iron is tied up and unavailable due to high pH (alkaline soil), or poor aeration. It can also be induced by an over-abundance of calcium in the soil or an over-application of lime.
Iron chlorosis is the name of the condition found in plants that are iron deficient. It is one of the most common micro-nutrient problems of ornamentals, shrubs, vines, small fruits, and trees. Leaves of affected plants are yellow, light green, or white with distinct green veins.

Warnings:
Do not spray in hot weather conditions.
Iron can stain paths, concrete, paving, clothes and skin, so always wear old clothes and gloves, wash hands after use and be careful when applying near concrete and paths etc. Wash off immediately any lasting damage. Keep away from water sources such as ponds, pools etc. Can cause drying or mild irritation to skin - Rinse with water if contact occurs.
Iron deficiency in many plants & lawns is an indication of high pH or alkaline soil. If yellowing persists or returns rapidly after treatment, soil pH should be checked and adjusted if necessary.
Follow application directions as excess liquid iron can lead to other problems, such as zinc and manganese deficiencies. While liquid iron provides immediate relief for plants & soil, it is not an adequate long-term solution for an iron deficiency. Keeping plants/Lawn in well-drained soil amended with sulphur to reduce the pH level can help iron in the soil become more available to plants.
