Description Yates Nutricote Standard Black is a blend of Nutricote types with differing release periods allowing nutrients to be available over 270 days or a 9 month period. Nutrient release matches plant needs over longer term. Balanced NPK suitable for semi advanced to super advanced plants. Yates Nutricote Black 270 Day is a controlled release fertiliser designed specifically for use on foliage plants. It combines the highest quality NPK, with trace elements, and is suitable for most natives and exotics. The advanced prill coating provides superior control of nutrient release over 270 days at 25°C. Yates Nutricote Black 270 Day matches nutrient release with plant growth and growing conditions. During warmer periods nutrient release increases to support accelerated plant growth. In winter when temperatures fall, and the slower plant growth requires lower nutrient levels, the prill release rate also slows down. This facilitates a more cost effective nutritional programme and also minimises nutrient loss through leaching.   Features. Superior control of nutrient release designed to match plant nutritional requirements Consistent granule size for ease of application Balanced NPK ratio for foliage plants Low water soluble phosphorus, suitable for natives and exotics Ideal feeding for foliage plants and advanced – super advanced plants Ratio of Use. 6g of fertiliser to 1 litre of potting mix   Directions. Top Dressing Evenly apply to the base of the plant, keeping fertiliser away from the main trunk or stem. Water in well after application with a rose type spray to minimize water blast of prills from pot. Incorporation Mix well into the soil profile ensuring even application.   Analysis NPK: 16.0 : 4.4 : 8.3 = Nitrogen (N) as Nitrate 6.8 Nitrogen (N) as Ammonium 9.2 Total Nitrogen (N) 16.0 Phosphorus (P) as water soluble 2.2 Total Phosphorus (P) 4.4 Total Potassium (K) as sulfate 8.3
