Product catalog summary
Description: Top Substra 12-12-17(+2) is a partly coated NPK complex fertilizer designed for substrate mixes, particularly suitable for potting soils and peat-based products. It features a fine granule size with 90% of granules between 1.0 and 2.5 mm. The fertilizer provides a long-term nutrient release over 3-4 months, enhancing plant uptake post-potting.
Nutrient Release Mechanism: The nutrients are released in two phases: an initial starter effect under moisture influence to meet immediate demand, followed by a gradual release through diffusion influenced by moisture and temperature.
Composition: The fertilizer contains 12% total nitrogen (5% nitrate nitrogen, 7% ammonium nitrogen), 12% P2O5, 7% K2O, 2% MgO, 8% S, and trace elements including boron, iron, and zinc. It is low in chloride.
Application Recommendations: Suitable for nursery and ornamental applications with 1-3 soil applications per year. The recommended application rate is 4-10 g/l, following regional guidelines.
Form of Delivery: Available in 25 kg bags.
Transport & Storage Recommendations: Transport as loose goods in big bags or on pallets, protecting from moisture, sunlight, and temperature fluctuations. Store in a frost-free, dry, and shaded environment, avoiding large temperature changes. The product should be used quickly once opened and stored at temperatures between 5°C and 40°C. Properly stored, it can last up to three years in its original packaging.

COMPO EXPERT Top Substra 12-12-17(+2) Partly Coated Fertilizers u Fine granule size (90 % within 1,0 and 2,5 mm) m Long-term effect of all nutrients over 3-4 months ■ Efficacy and better plant uptake after potting Description Top Substra is a partly coated NPK complex fertilizer with emphasis on phosphorus and potassium designed for substrate mixes. It is suitable for the application in potting soils and peat-based products. The nutrients are released in two steps: 1) Starter effect after application under moisture influence. As a result, the relatively high immediate demand is met. 2) In a second step, the coated granules release the nutrients via diffusion influenced by moisture and temperature. Mixing into substrate is recommended directly before use (maximum storage time: 10 days). Top Substra 12-12-17(+2) Page 1 ■ Date 04.05.2020
