Join us for this webinar during which we will discuss the right nitrogen form (Ammonium vs. Nitrate), source, rate, timing and placement of nutrients and conservation for container grown plants.
Knowing the plant species’ preference for right nitrogen forms (Ammonium vs. Nitrate) and application rate can avoid an imbalance in nutrient availability and improve efficient use of nutrients and water use for optimal plant growth and development. Some species are more sensitive to sub/supra optimal nutrient supply than others. Growers practicing the Best Management Practices (BMPs) can have best finished quality plants and higher profit margin while conserving resources.
