A UNIQUE FORMULA BLENDED FROM THE FOLLOWING INGREDIENTS

CALCIUM - A 12% source of soluble organic calcium that is readily available for plant uptake and as an exchange agent in soils.
HUMIC/FULVIC ACIDS - A base of bio-active organic compounds derived from naturally occurring peat humus sources.

N-hance is a specialized formula designed to accomplish several goals. First N-hance will inhibit the breakdown of soluble Urea, slowing down the nitrogen conversion to more plant available forms of nitrate and nitrite nitrogen. Using N-hance with inexpensive forms of Urea provides a stable and slow release nitrogen source, allowing for better control and cost savings. Secondly, N-hance contains 12% Calcium, an essential nutrient in building cell walls and allowing the plant to build natural disease resistance. This calcium will not only foliar feed plants but also help to work as a catalyst, drawing calcium out of the soil for plant use. N-hance is formulated in a base of Humic and Fulvic Acids, which will further enhance the product's effectiveness and provide soil conditioning properties including a better release of available nutrients.

The breakdown of Urea occurs with the help of the Urease enzyme. N-hance has the ability to interact with this enzyme and create a situation where the Urea does not volatilize as quickly, allowing soil micro-organisms to break down the nitrogen into plant-usable forms. Typically Urea loses as much as 60% of its effective nitrogen as ammonia (NH3) which escapes as a gas. N-hance will significantly reduce this conversion of Urea to ammonia gas, saving product and money.

N-hance also provides available calcium, as a foliar feed, directly to plants and promotes the uptake of calcium from the soil. Calcium is used by plants in very large amounts. Often calcium mobility is restricted by the soil. Improved levels of calcium in the cell wall will inhibit various enzymes produced by parasitic fungi as they invade the plant, causing disease problems. The use of N-hance will help suppress fungal attack.

Another significant advantage of N-hance is its ability to remove sodium (Na) from the soil. High levels of sodium salts can build up in soils from a variety of sources, creating an unfavorable environment for beneficial microbes, and providing an opening for pathogenic organisms. N-hance effectively replaces the sodium ion form the soil colloid with calcium; therefore, the sodium will begin leaching from the soil.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

TURF MAINTENANCE: Nitrogen Stabilization - Mix with urea at a rate of 4 oz per every ½ pound N. Apply the mixture consistent with normal nitrogen applications practices.

Calcium Application - Apply 4-8 oz/1000 sq ft in 2-3 gallons of water every 6-8 weeks. On calcium deficient soils apply 8 oz/1000 sq ft every 6 weeks during the growing season.

Sodium Removal - Drench the soil with a solution of 8-16 oz/1000 sq ft. Repeat every 4 weeks until problem subsides, then follow calcium rates. Through an irrigation system, apply at a rate of 10 gallons per acre inch of water. DO NOT exceed more than 120 gallons per acre per year.

GREENS & TEES: For standard calcium use on sand greens & tees, apply 6 oz/1000 sq ft every 30 days. On soil greens apply 4-6 oz/1000 sq ft every 60 days. For nitrogen stabilization, use 4 oz per every ½ pound of N.

LANDSCAPE USE: Add 4-6 oz in 2 gallons of water and use as a drench or a foliar feed every 6-8 weeks.

***Avoid mixing with phosphorous or sulfur containing materials as precipitation may occur.
