IRO-MAX
Benefits of Use:
- Iron is required by plants for the formation of chlorophyll.
- Iron is a component of enzymes that activate other biochemical processes within plants such as respiration, symbiotic nitrogen fixation, and energy transfer.
- IRO-MAX® relieves chlorotic symptoms of iron-deficient plants.
Deficiency Symptoms—When to Apply:
- Plants develop severe chlorosis, or a yellowing or “bleaching” of leaf tissue with veins remaining green
- Severe iron deficiencies result in stunted growth
- In grain crops, leaves will show chlorotic or yellow striping
- High pH, excess bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium, and/or phosphate
- High levels of nitrate, over-irrigation or poor drainage, poor aeration, plant viruses, root pruning, or nematode damage
- Deficiencies of potassium and calcium
