Suståne 5-2-10 + Fe
Granulated professional turf grass and landscape fertilizer
Suståne 5-2-10+Fe combines Suståne organic compost base with iron sulfate organically chelated during the active aerobic composting phase providing for slow release iron for enhance chlorophyll production and turf color without excessive top growth. This is the ideal 1:2 N to K organic based fertilizer for summer and early autumn feeding.
Additional potassium is supplied for sandy soils and USGA type putting greens where potash is often lost through leaching.
Recommended use
Suståne 5-2-10+Fe is recommended for for building carbohydrate reserves in the root system and amending low potash soils during periods of stress. Use all year round for greens and tees as a standalone application or alongside any existing nutritional program to maintain adequate potassium levels throughout the growing season.
Professional grade
Suståne products are derived from biologically stable humus-rich compost and contain both water soluble nitrogen (WSN) and slow release nitrogen (SRN), beneficial microbiology, and all 17 elements essential for plant photosynthesis. With a near-neutral pH, a low salt index and low ammonium nitrogen percentage, Suståne will not cause seedling stress or plant fertilizer “burn”. Suståne products increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC) by supplying humates and stable organic matter. Suståne’s organic and blended natural fertilizers provide all soil types with additional buffering capacity, allowing for more consistent and productive growth.
