Intec Phite King Liquid Fertiliser
Intec Phite King liquid fertiliser (20% Phosphorus & 30% Potassium) is formulated to deliver a slowly available source of Phosphorus, while at the same time supplying sufficient quantities of Potassium for strength, durability & quality turf.
The role of Phosphorus is mainly in the formation of nucleic acids, but also in the formation of energy compounds.
A vital role of Potassium is to control the water content of the turf cells, regulating osmosis & strengthening cell-walls. Higher concentrations of Potassium will toughen, harden & make turf more durable as water will not fill the cells making the turf soft.
This blend of liquid fertiliser is highly important in any good maintenance program not only to balance an over-reliance of Nitrogen & Iron, but also to build resilience against stressful times of heat, wind, cold, drought etc. It is also important to build reserves going into the cooler winter temperatures.

Phite King is best applied by itself, but you should always jar-test products in any case to check their compatibilities.
