Nitrogen is a vital macronutrient (NPK) essential for healthy plant growth, serving as a key component of proteins and nucleic acids. Because nitrogen is mobile within plants, deficiency symptoms such as chlorosis, slow growth, and stunted development typically appear first in older leaves. Common nitrogen forms include nitrate, ammoniacal, and urea, each preferred differently by various plant species. Supplements providing all three nitrogen forms offer superior effectiveness compared to those containing only one form.

This concentrated nitrogen source delivers 30,000 mg/L of nitrogen in a balanced blend: approximately 50% originates from organic urea, with the remainder split evenly between nitrate and ammoniacal forms. This unique formulation supports optimal nutrient uptake and promotes vigorous plant health in freshwater aquatic environments.

Directions

Administer 5 mL per 680 L (180 US gallons) twice weekly or as needed. Each dose increases total nitrogen by 0.24 mg/L, equivalent to 1 mg/L nitrate if all nitrogen were nitrate-based. Due to the mixed nitrogen forms, nitrate levels will rise by approximately 0.25 mg/L immediately after dosing.

For balanced nutrition, use alongside a complementary phosphorus supplement at the same dosage, achieving an ideal 5:1 nitrogen-to-phosphorus ratio.

A pipette is included for precise dosing; filled to the base of the bulb, it holds 1 mL for smaller measurements.
