Potash is an excellent source of potassium. It is a key nutrient that aids plants in developing healthy stems, roots and tuber growth. Great for below ground forming vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and others.
Potassium also plays a key role in the development of blooms and fruits in plants. An increase in potassium will prevent disease and yield larger, healthier crops.
Potassium chloride is contains 60% potash. We recommend that you test your soil before you use any fertiliser, to make sure your soil needs potassium to ensure healthy plant growth. Potassium chloride supplies chloride, the ionic form of the element chlorine and an essential micronutrient.
Chloride affects plants primarily through increasing osmotic potential of soil water. In other words, chloride salts increase the soil salinity which interferes with a plant’s ability to take up water.

• Potassium chloride (KCl), is also frequently referred to as muriate of potash or MOP fertilizer.
• Potassium chloride is often spread onto the soil surface prior to tillage and planting.
• KCl can be dissolved for fluid fertilizers or applied through irrigation system.
• High concentration of nutrients makes packing, storage and transport costs per unit cost of nutrient very low.
• Granules are stronger, harder and of uniform size, free.
• Essential for all crops for healthy growth and better yields.
• It aids flowering plants by encouraging strong stems and well-developed flowers.

Recommended Application Rate: 5-10 g per square meter.
Apply at the rate of 5-10g per square metre. Ensure the surface is already damp. Spread evenly over the surface and rake into approximately 5cm of soil. Water in well immediately after spreading.
Also suitable as a water spray or fertigation. Dissolve 5-10g per litre of water. Apply at a rate of 1 litre per square meter.
