Phos-Life™

Plant-available calcium and phosphate, together in a single, high-analysis product, is not normally a possibility. The non-ionic nature of MMS products allows this highly productive combination.

A high-analysis source of micronised guano combined in a free-flowing suspension with fulvic acid and soil-life metabolites. Calcium and phosphate are the two principle elements involved in photosynthesis and plant sugar production but it is not normally possible to combine them in a single fertiliser due to their incompatibility. Phos-Life™ represents a rare-fusion of these two elements in a plant-available form.

Packaging.

  • 1 litre, (1.56kg), 5 litres (7.65kg), 20 litres (31kg), 200 litres (318kg).
    Weight per volume: 1.49

Information:

  • A rare and unique source of organic liquid phosphate free of heavy metals.
  • Also contains high levels of calcium. Calcium and phosphate are the governors of plant health and high brix levels.
  • Soluble calcium and phosphate are normally incompatible in ionic form, but not in micronised, colloidal form.
  • The combination of plant-available calcium and phosphate generates tremendous energy in the soil.
  • Phos-Life™ also contains a rich lode of trace elements, including good levels of zinc.
  • The mineral component can become plant available within days.
  • Far more compatible with other inputs compared with MAP/DAP or calcium nitrate.
  • Particularly applicable when nitrogen or phosphates are not required in conjunction with calcium ie MAP, DAP, calcium nitrate etc.
  • Also contains biological metabolites derived from: Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, Azotobacter vinelandii, Pseudomonas flourescens, Pseudomonas putida, Rhizobium japonicum, Pseudomonas stutzei,
    Rhizobium leguminosarum, Streptomyces albidoflavus, Streptomyces cellulosae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Chaetomium globosum, and Trichoderma lignorum.
  • Easy, convenient application.
  • BFA certified organic.

Application Rates:

  • Foliar:
    Broadacre: 2 - 5 litres per hectare. Horticulture: 4 - 10 litres per hectare.
  • Fertigation or Boomspray onto the soil: 15 -40 litres per hectare.
  • Liquid injection at planting: 10 - 20 litres per hectare.
  • Dilution Rate: A minimum of 1:50.

Note:

  • Shake or stir well before use. Spray tank will require constant agitation to prevent solids from settling out.
  • MMS products involve tiny 5-micron particles which are far too small in themselves to clog filters. However, if they are inadequately diluted or agitated before application, there is a possibility of problems with spray equipment. MMS products should be slowly applied to the spray tank to avoid problems.
  • MMS products are very heavy and every care should be taken when handling these materials to avoid back injury.
  • MMS products will leave a visible residue on leaves and fruit when used as a foliar. Soil applications may be preferable if this residue is commercially inappropriate.
  • Compatible with all other MMS products and most liquid fertilisers, but always perform a 'jar test' to check for precipitation.
