UltraMate B Features and Benefits
- Improves nitrogen availability, reducing volatility while increasing the utilization of nutrients it is tank-mixed with
- Promotes phosphorus utilization and decreases leaching
- Provides up-front availability of humic and fulvic acids as well as boron to growing plants
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: On what crops can UltraMate B liquid humate be used?
A: UltraMate B liquid humate can be applied to all crops including row crops, fruits, vegetables, trees, vines, flowers, ornamentals, turf (including lawns, sod farms, commercial properties, athletic fields, golf greens, tees, and fairways), greenhouse plants, and other indoor crops.
Q: When should UltraMate B liquid humate be applied?
A: UltraMate B is recommended for sidedress application, and may also be used with 2x2 placed starter fertilizer or with weed and feed applications.
Q: What is the role of boron in UltraMate B?
A: Boron is an essential micronutrient responsible for a variety of functions within the plant. Boron supports reproductive growth and plays a key role in flowering, pollination, and growth in corn tassels and ears. Boron is immobile in plants, meaning small applications throughout the season are most beneficial to the crop.
Q: How does UltraMate B liquid humate differ from other humic acid products?
A: UltraMate B incorporates the benefits of both high-quality humic acid and boron. The sulfonation of the humic acid allows for easy tank mixing, increased activity in low pH soils, and stability in storage when mixed. UltraMate B also delivers boron, which is essential for many critical plant functions.
