Storage
Our products are tested between -10 °C and + 45°C and can be stored within this temperature-range. Occurring crystals due to cold storage will dissolve again at higher temperatures. We recommend a frost-free storage and a product-temperature above +5 °C at the time of use.
Miscibility
Lebosol®-Kalium 450 is compatible with all commonly used plant protection products. Since not all the influences appearing in practice are predictable, a miscibility test with small amounts of the products provided for the spraying is always useful. In case of mixture with fertilizers or plant protection products fill sprayer up to 2/3 with water and add products separately. Add Lebosol®-Kalium 450 as the last component.
Product active agent
Potassium availability is low in light soil or after intense rainfalls by eluviation. On soils with high mineral content, potassium can become fixed and therefore unavailable to the crop.
Potassium deficiency is shown by necrosis on the apex of the leaf and the leaf-edges, in particular on the oldest leaves. In cereals the resistance to lodging and against diseases decrease. The red colour of fruits gets less intense.
