| Non-uniform application of granular dry blend fertilizers can be frustrating, unsightly on turfgrass and extremely devastating on intensely managed golf course greens and fairways. Granular dry blend fertilizers are mixtures of particles of different sizes, shapes and weights, which often leads to sifting segregation of the elements. Studies have indicated that if the nitrogen is separated from the phosphorus by as much as two inches, there can be as much as a 50% reduction in phosphorus uptake by the plant. The non-uniformity of blends of this type and can result in uneven growth, lack of uniform color and increased management problems.
By contrast, reliable N-P-K delivery, balanced secondary elements and micronutrients, predictable response consistent results are what you will see every time you apply BEST Fertilizers. Research has shown that the maximum influence of nitrogen occurs when the nitrogen and phosphate are intimately associated together through a process known as positive nutrient interaction. Inside of every BEST homogeneous pellet, there is a positive interaction between nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur in increasing the availability and efficiency of each of these important turfgrass nutrients. |
