ᐉ Red Giant fertilizer - reviews, description

Description of the fertilizer

The granulated product Giant contains all the essential nutrients for feeding plants during difficult periods of development and growth. The drug is produced in Kemerovo at Agrochemical. The product can be used in the fall, in the spring after the main tillage (plowing or digging), as well as for root feeding of various crops. The fertilizer is especially effective for cultivating plants that grow on neutral or acidic soils.

The drug is available in the form of granules, so its form allows for a long-lasting effect. It is ideally balanced in micro- and macroelements; it is a complex product; after its use, all the basic needs of plants are covered. The huge advantage of the product is that its application does not disturb the balance and course of natural reactions in the soil, since the drug gently regulates these processes.

The advantages of the drug are undoubted:

Neutralization of excessive soil acidity
Lack of harmful impurities, especially nitrates
Prolonged action
Possibility of one-time application
Versatility of use
Water solubility
Fixation of nutrients in the soil, preventing them from being washed out
Availability of plant nutrient forms
High digestibility of elements by all crops
A small dose of the drug required to meet all the needs of cultivated crops
Easy to use
No environmental damage from fertilizer

The effect of fertilizing on plants can be felt within a short time after the start of its use. The product can improve the immunity of plants, and they stop reacting negatively to unfavorable weather conditions, drafts, temperature changes, and tolerate drought better. The likelihood of infection or active reproduction of wireworms and some other diseases becomes less high.

After applying the fertilizer, the following positive effects are also observed:

Increased yield
Excellent harvest quality and high shelf life
Improving the condition of the soil, enriching its composition and increasing fertility
Optimization of water and air conditions
Activation of the activity of beneficial microorganisms
Increasing the amount of humus in the soil

Of the main nutrients in the fertilizer, nitrogen (20%), potassium (9%), phosphorus (9%) are present. The microelements that make up the composition are as follows:

Features of ready-made fertilizers

The main purpose of ready-made fertilizers is to fill that very niche in plant nutrition that the soil of a given site or region cannot fill.

The reasons may be different: poor soil cover, water or wind erosion, poor crop rotation, etc. Fertilizers are divided into several groups based on their chemical composition.

Organic and organomineral . Organic includes substances exclusively of plant and animal origin - manure, peat, compost. Most often they are prepared right on site. Fertilizers of this kind improve the physical, chemical, biological properties of the soil, air and water conditions.
Mineral . Substances of inorganic origin. They can be solid and liquid, homogeneous and complex. Based on the nutritional element, they are divided into microfertilizers (zinc, manganese, boron) and macrofertilizers (phosphorus, potassium, nitrogen, calcium, sulfur).
Bacterial . These drugs promote the development of bacteria that affect the nutritional regime of the soil. Contains certain types of microorganisms. There are phytohormones, growth stimulants, drainage and ameliorants.

We invite you to watch a video about what fertilizers are suitable for feeding tomatoes:

Instructions for use

Use as a means for spring pre-sowing main application is carried out according to the following scheme: 1-1.5 kg is required per 100 square meters. We are talking about feeding plants on neutral and acidic soils for all types of garden and vegetable crops. In the autumn after harvesting, the dose of the drug is calculated in a similar way (if there was no fertilizing in the spring). During the growing season, you can plan root feeding:

Dry – 1 kg. per 100 square meters, applied after loosening into the top layer of soil, followed by watering
In dissolved form - a glass of the product per 10 liters of water, watering accordingly

Below is a detailed timeline for adding the Giant:

For sowing seeds and growing seedlings - March-July.
For feeding during the growing season - April - August.
To restore soil properties and improve its fertility - April - October.

The manufacturer gives recommendations on how to increase the effectiveness of using the Giant product. To do this, together with it, you can add various organic mixtures to the soil, which are based on organic matter (compost). Organic matter will additionally increase soil fertility, optimize its structure, retain moisture, and increase the rate of reproduction of beneficial microbes.

The cost of the drug is 72 rubles per 1 kg (package of granules).

When and how to apply fertilizer correctly

You can prepare soil for potatoes both in the fall, at the end of the season, and in the spring. Tillage is equally permissible in both periods, the only difference is that different fertilizers are used.

Autumn site preparation

During autumn preparation, fresh manure or rotted humus (at the rate of 15 kg per 1 sq. m) and ash are used. Among the mineral mixtures suitable for fertilizing soil under potatoes are urea (30 g per 1 sq. m), superphosphate and potassium sulfate (15 g each). At the same time, acidic soils are limed, adding per 1 sq. m 200 g of lime, wood ash or dolomite flour.

Spring preparation of the site and when planting potatoes in holes

When preparing the soil for potatoes in the spring, you can also add various fertilizers to it. This can be humus, compost or complex compositions, in particular, such as the “Potato Formula”. It is embedded in the ground at the rate of 60 g per 1 square meter. m. You can apply this fertilizer directly into the holes when planting, 15-20 g, which will not only strengthen the plants, but also repel wireworms and beetles from them.

If there are few fertilizers (organic or mineral), then you can not embed them in the ground, but simply put 200-300 g of humus and 1-2 tbsp in the holes. l. ash. Synthetic fertilizers can also be used. How much of these fertilizers is needed for potatoes when planting in a hole can be calculated based on the application rates specified in the instructions for each square meter. m.

Before planting, potato tubers are treated with the preparation “Prestige”: 15 ml is diluted in 3 liters of water, mixed and all planting material is sprayed from a sprayer. This amount of liquid should be enough for 10-15 kg of tubers. They must be planted immediately after treatment.

After landing

Fertilizer application is not limited to pre-planting preparation; potatoes are also fertilized after planting. They are applied several times during the growing season of this vegetable crop. Perform both root and foliar feeding.

Root feeding

The first fertilizing of potatoes after germination is carried out after the first hilling. Before applying fertilizers, lightly loosen the soil so that they penetrate into it more quickly. First, the plants are fertilized with slurry or poultry droppings. The solution is prepared at the rate of 1 to 10 or 1 to 20 and poured into the grooves dug between the rows. Or use saltpeter - dissolve 1 tbsp. l. in a bucket of water and pour 1 liter of this solution onto each plant. Then the potatoes are covered with peat or sawdust.

A nutritious herbal infusion is also prepared from any weeds found in the garden. They are soaked in a large barrel for 1 week, and after the mixture has fermented, the liquid is filtered and poured over the potatoes. This fertilizing is considered a good source of nitrogen.

The second application is made before flowering begins. This time, potassium and phosphorus are added as part of superphosphate or any potassium fertilizer, except chlorine-containing fertilizer. You can prepare solutions or simply scatter granules around the bushes. In both cases, the potatoes must then be watered abundantly so that the fertilizers quickly penetrate to the roots of the bushes. After flowering, a third feeding is done, again with potassium and phosphorus. Use the same fertilizers or ash solution.

The rates for applying synthetic fertilizers to potatoes can be found in the instructions for use, which are attached to each such fertilizer. They should not be reduced or exceeded: both deficiency and excess of nutrients have a bad effect on both the plants themselves and the harvest as a whole.

Foliar feeding

In addition to the root ones, foliar subcortex of potatoes is also used: through the leaves, the plant receives all the missing elements as easily as through the roots. Time: morning or evening, in clear weather.

The first such feeding is done 1.5 weeks after potato shoots appear. Prepare a solution of urea (no more than 5 g per 10 l), carefully dissolve the granules in water and spray the bushes with a spray bottle.

At the beginning of flowering, potatoes are sprayed with a weak solution of nitrate, potassium sulfate, superphosphate (2 g per 10 l). And finally, when the tubers begin to form, the potatoes are sprayed again: this time with a weak solution of manganese and boron to improve the taste of the tubers and prevent the appearance of voids in them. You can use Mag-Bor fertilizer (1 tbsp per 10 l).

Feeding potato bushes with fertilizers is a necessary condition for obtaining a generous, high-quality harvest of tubers from them. The main thing is to add all the substances correctly and on time.

Fertilizer GIANT Universal. Granular universal fertilizer “Giant” NPK brand 20-9-9 is used for application for basic cultivation (ploughing, digging) in spring and autumn, as well as for root feeding of any garden crops grown on acidic and neutral soils. The drug is available in the form of granules, so its form allows for a long-lasting effect. It is ideally balanced in micro- and macroelements; it is a complex product; after its use, all the basic needs of plants are covered. The huge advantage of the product is that its application does not disturb the balance and course of natural reactions in the soil, since the drug gently regulates these processes. Advantages and results of use: does not contain harmful impurities, including nitrates; neutralizes soil acidity; has a long-lasting effect.

So, which fertilizer is best for potatoes? Let's start with the fact that this culture loves complex fertilizing, which immediately combines different nutritional elements - nitroammofoska and azofoska. But it is better to use superphosphate separately. You can also find special fertilizers - like Kemira Potato, for example, which really optimally combines the most necessary elements. True, such a composition will be quite expensive. That is why organic matter is the best fertilizer for potatoes, because it contains all the necessary nutrients (sulfur, calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and nitrogen) and trace elements (molybdenum, cobalt, manganese and boron). This is a direct source of nutrition, which makes compounds inaccessible to the roots most easily digestible, and thus humus accumulates in the soil and its physical properties are significantly improved. Even on saline soils, organic matter weakens the effect of toxic salts on the development of a potato bush. And most importantly, during decomposition in the ground layer of air, the amount of carbon dioxide increases significantly, which is why potato tubers grow large and healthy.

When planting potatoes, you can also use bird droppings, slurry, humus, a variety of composts and industrial waste as organic fertilizers. But remember that manure and its composition depend on the type of animal and feed, although on average, in a semi-rotted state, one ton will yield about 5 kg of nitrogen, 6 kg of potassium oxide, 3.5 kg of calcium, 1.3 magnesium and 2 kg of phosphoric acid . And before planting potatoes, you need to apply two tons per ten hundredths of a hectare. Chicken manure is distinguished by its concentration and the fastest effect on the development of potato tubers - but it is also not used fresh, otherwise the plants can simply be burned. Dilute chicken manure with water in a ratio of 1:15 and leave for a couple of days in a warm place. Use one liter for each bush. But green manure, because... green fertilizers will enrich the garden bed with organic matter even better than manure.

As for mineral fertilizers, potatoes need more potassium and less nitrogen. Wood ash will completely provide the tubers with the first element, but in the store it is better to purchase nitrogen fertilizers - urea, which is also called urea. It is nitrogen that will then give the greatest increase in yield. It is only important to observe the dose - with the right approach, the bush will turn out powerful and with a large number of fairly large tubers. Nitrogen fertilizers are most often taken in the form of ammonium sulfate or ammonium nitrate, and phosphorus fertilizers are taken in the form of ammophos, double or ammoniated superphosphate, and potassium fertilizers are taken in the form of potassium chloride or potassium salt. But you need to be careful with nitrogen: they are needed most of all during the growing season, but if you overdo the dose, then all the energy will be spent on green leaves, not root vegetables. The tops will be huge, like those of a sunflower, and the harvest will be quite modest. You can notice this from those neighbors who all summer boast about “potato bushes up to their bellies,” talk about some new fertilizers, and then in the fall somehow quietly and sadly harvest an unexpectedly weak harvest. “Tops, not roots,” as the famous fairy tale says.

Article on the topic: ROKON for citrus fruits - reviews, description

Wood ash is especially valuable for potatoes. It should be applied from 5 to 10 kg per hundred square meters. It contains a lot of phosphorus, calcium and potassium, as well as special valuable microelements, the absorption of which is simply necessary for the full development of tubers. The rate of application of mineral and organic fertilizers during planting potatoes is different for different areas - here a lot depends on the fertility of the soil. Calculate everything based on the following data (all this is for one hundred square meters): Fertile soils - 2-2.5 kg of compost and manure, 2-2.5 kg of superphosphate and up to 1.5 kg of potash fertilizers. For soil of average fertility - up to 3 kg of manure/compost, up to 3 kg of nitrogen fertilizers, 2.5 kg of potassium and 3-4 kg of phosphorus. On problematic, depleted soil - 1 kg of humus with 1 kg of ammonium nitrate + 3 kg of superphosphate. So, the most important thing is not to overdo it with fertilizers - if you use them in excess when planting, the harvest will be weak, the potatoes will be tasteless and poorly cooked, and only the tops will be powerful. Be especially careful with potassium - yes, potatoes especially love it, but there is usually plenty of this substance in the soil. Therefore, it must be applied strictly according to the norm - this is the only way it will contribute to better absorption of phosphorus and nitrogen. But if you don’t use the latter, this will not have the best effect on the potato harvest.

Types of fertilizers used for potatoes

Like other crops, potatoes can be fed with fertilizers of organic and synthetic origin. In turn, synthetic types of fertilizers for potatoes include simple and complex mineral and complex fertilizers. There are also modern organomineral mixtures consisting of both organic and mineral components.

Organic

To grow potatoes you will need 3 main elements and microelements. They can be found in the manure of any domestic farm animals and poultry, but it is still better to use mullein, horse manure or chicken manure. Manure contains N, P and K in varying proportions, as well as calcium and magnesium. It is used only in diluted form: before application, it is diluted with water in a ratio of 1 to 15 and left to infuse in a warm place for 2-3 days. The consumption rate is 1 liter for each bush.

Manure for potato plants can be taken fresh, but it is better to use rotted manure: fresh manure affects the growth of tops rather than tubers. In addition to humus, compost can be used as organic fertilizer for potatoes - not fresh, but already rotted plant residues, tops of garden crops and tree leaves.

As an organic fertilizer containing calcium, you can use eggshells, which consist almost entirely of calcium carbonate. It needs to be dried and crushed to a powdery state, and then embedded in the soil in potato beds.

Mineral

Organic matter can be replaced by applying fertilizers of mineral origin. As a home remedy that is always at hand, you can use ordinary ash obtained from burning plant residues and tree branches, preferably deciduous trees. It contains F, Ca, Mn, Si, K, Cl, Na, S, B, etc., almost all elements except nitrogen. Therefore, the addition of ash as a fertilizer for potatoes along with manure completely replaces any fertilizer of mineral origin.

Mineral fertilizers usually contain 1 or 2-3 nutrients in pure form and in much higher concentrations than in organic matter. It is convenient to apply them at certain stages of development of potato plants in order to provide them with exactly the elements that are needed at this time of the growing season.

At the beginning of its development, potatoes grow tops, which require nitrogen for normal growth, so ammonium nitrate is added in the first spring feeding in the amount of 20-30 g per square meter. m or 5 g per well. In it this element is in the most accessible form. Nitrate for potatoes is an indispensable spring fertilizer that is available to all vegetable growers: you just need to purchase it at a vegetable growing store. Using urea for potatoes gives the same effect, but it only needs to be applied in the fall, during the autumn digging of the beds.

As a concentrated mixture for potato plants containing phosphorus, superphosphate, simple or double, is mainly used. It can be used both at the planting stage, adding 3-4 g to the holes, and for subsequent feeding after flowering, when tubers begin to form.

The importance of potassium fertilizers for potatoes has also been established: they accelerate growth processes and enhance the accumulation of starch in tubers. A deficiency of this element is manifested by weak growth, decreased yield, resistance to infections and frost resistance, and darkening of the pulp of tubers during processing.

The effectiveness of nutrient mixtures containing the element potassium is determined by how much of it is in the soil in exchangeable form, as well as its type: on light soils and peatlands, the need for this element increases. It is permissible to use for potatoes: potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, potassium magnesium.

Chlorine-containing fertilizers: potassium salts and potassium chloride are incorporated into the soil only in the fall, because potatoes do not like chlorine: after winter there is no chlorine left in the soil.

Complex

Complex fertilizers are powders or granules that contain all 3 elements at once + may also contain microelements. This is very convenient, since in one application the bush immediately receives all the compounds it needs. For example, in the spring, when planting potatoes, you can add 1 tsp into the holes. nitroammophoska, which contains all 3 elements in a fairly concentrated form. This compound stimulates root development well and greatly increases the yield volume.

Instead of nitroammophoska, you can use azofoska, which, in addition to 3 elements, also contains sulfur. In general, both of these substances are very similar, both in composition and in the effect they have on garden plants.

Among mineral fertilizers containing N, K and P, nitrophoska can also be applied to potatoes. There are 3 types of this fertilizer: sulfate, phosphorite and sulfate. It is better to apply phosphorite nitrophoska on heavy loams, sulphate - on sandy loams, and it is also useful for foliar feeding. In addition to nutritional properties, it also has fungicidal properties, as it contains sulfur.

You can also use any complex fertilizer for potatoes with microelements:

There are other complex preparations suitable for application to potatoes.

Organomineral fertilizers (OMF)

OMU is a combination of organic and mineral components in one fertilizer. The effect of their use is expressed in improving the physical and chemical properties of the soil, increasing moisture capacity, looseness and reducing its volumetric mass. WMD do not salinize the soil, which happens when large doses of mineral fertilizers are used. The nutrients contained in their granules are evenly distributed in the soil and released in the amount required by plants.

Balanced nutrition until harvest: Red Giant fertilizer for tomatoes

Among the effective ready-made fertilizers there is a product that has a remarkable effect on tomatoes. This is the Red Giant, which improves the soil in all respects: biological, chemical, physical, and also increases productivity, prevents diseases, and nourishes the bushes in a balanced manner.

Siberian giant, fertilizer for tomatoes - a comprehensive set for cultivation on any type of soil. Included

main fertilizer
and 2 feedings.

The drug includes the traditional trio - a nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium mixture. In addition, minerals are contained in ideal proportions:

The influence of the amount of minerals on the crop

Fertilizers containing minerals are effective in growing tomatoes. They can be either single-component or complex. The drugs are produced taking into account strict adherence to proportions and are divided into the following subgroups:

nitrogen;
phosphorus;
potash;
multicomponent.

Nitrogen

Used as a plant growth accelerator. It is effective when introduced at the early stages of green development due to the fact that it helps it gain a foothold in the soil. May contain small amounts of other minerals.

Phosphorus

The main indication for introducing an element is its deficiency. It is used as a monocomponent or as part of a complex feeding. Lack of phosphorus leads to a lack of flowering, ovary, and fruit. Fertilizers with this component have the form of gray or white granules. Due to the poor solubility of the element in liquid, the fertilizing process requires preliminary preparation. It involves soaking phosphorus in water for 24 hours. The resulting extract is added separately or in combination with other minerals.

Potassium

It feeds the root system. With its help, all nutrients move from the root to the green part of the plant. The fruits have excellent taste. You can add potassium sulfate and potassium magnesium.

The element in question is not recommended for use in combination with chlorine due to the negative effect of the latter on the flora.

Microelements

They play an important biological role in the development of plantings. Unlike basic nutrition, they are administered in small doses. They provide enzymatic synthesis, which is responsible for the efficient use of solar and water energy and nutrients. The main properties of these substances are given in the table below.

Instructions for use

The red giant is used at several stages of cultivation:

for pre-sowing seed treatment;
for strengthening and growth of seedlings;
when growing adult bushes.

Organic components enhance the effect of the drug, improve air permeability and moisture permeability of the soil. The structure of the earth is restored more effectively, the soil is populated by soil workers - bacteria and fungi.

To effectively influence the roots of tomatoes during the growing season, use a mixture diluted in water or a dry substrate.

How to properly breed the Red Giant?

The following proportions are adhered to:

start 20-22 days after planting seedlings
and performed regularly every 2 weeks.

All about the dacha

Potatoes are a crop that requires large amounts of nutrients to form large tubers. He can only get them from the soil, but the reserves that are in it after the winter period are not enough to form a crop. Therefore, fertilizers for potatoes are simply necessary. They provide growing and tuber-forming plants with all the necessary elements throughout their growing season. Let's take a closer look at what fertilizers can be applied to potatoes, when and how to do it correctly.

Growth activators for seeds

Growth activators are necessary for treating tomato seeds before planting in the ground. Such preparations contain a complex of phytohormones and biostimulants. They awaken embryos, improve seed germination, and help produce healthy and strong seedlings.

Zircon

Fertilizer Zircon actively supports the growth and development of tomatoes at the cellular level. At the same time, the drug normalizes metabolic processes, protects plants from the effects of radionuclides, heavy metals and stress. The composition contains acids that help fight fungus and microbes.

Zircon is supplied in ampoules. To treat the seeds, prepare a solution containing 1 liter of water and 1 ml of fertilizer. The seeds are placed in it for 10 - 15 hours. Then the planting material is washed with water and laid out on a dry cloth. Then they start planting tomatoes.

Attention! The preparation Zircon is used for watering tomato seedlings. Treatment will help avoid blackleg and other dangerous diseases.

Gumat

Humates are complex fertilizers obtained through the decomposition of organic matter. They look like a black or brown lumpy mass. Also supplied in dissolved form.

The most common is potassium humate, which has a neutral reaction. The product is effective in treating seeds and promotes the development of seedlings. Sodium humate has similar characteristics, which increases the resistance of tomatoes to stress.

To treat tomato seeds, take 5 g of the substance per 10 liters of water. The material is placed in a solution with a temperature of 50°C. The seeds are left for a day, after which the liquid is drained and planting begins.

Epin

Epin contains laboratory-obtained phytohormones. The product has a general strengthening effect on tomatoes and stimulates the appearance of sprouts. After feeding with Epin, seedlings tolerate drought and cold better, do not suffer from diseases, and take root faster after planting in the ground.

To obtain a solution, take 100 ml of water and 2 drops of the product. Planting material is soaked for 4 - 6 hours. This treatment is suitable for seeds with an expiring shelf life. Subsequently, the seedlings are sprayed with a less concentrated solution: up to 8 drops per 1 liter of water.
