Chelated Micronutrient Fertilizer

Ferticell® Universal™ 0-0-1 is a highly concentrated solution containing an algae extract. Unlike kelp or seaweed products, Ferticell® Universal™ 0-0-1 utilizes unicellular algae (from a consistent parent culture) that is grown in fresh water. This is to reduce the risk of salt burn when used for foliar applications, and to reduce the salt added to soil in a fertility program. It is also a source of carbon, phytohormones and high levels of nutrient rich energy. Additionally, algae produces 50 X biomass of terrestrial plants. It was developed in Russia to clean polluted soil, transform a sandy to a healthy soil and can also be used to clean chemically polluted soil and water making their trees grow faster and stronger. It is THE Active Plasma Plant Nutrient: Active Plasma is a technology that makes use of microscopic single cell organisms as the delivery system for nutrients. It is a balanced nutrient supply held in a biological suspension (plasma). Plant growth substances found in higher plants and algae having similar functions as those found in specific soil fungi and bacteria used in Universal™. Various unicellular organisms are isolated and then grown in tanks. They are filtered daily with a percentage macerated to provide a feeding media for the remaining cells in the process. Ferticell® Universal™ 0-0-1 utilizes technologies to deliver nutrients and other important benefits directly to a plant’s cells. The algae cells are the delivery system of whatever input is applied using Universal™ or has it as part of the formula, e.g., Nutriplus™ 2.5-0-0. The process begins by using application methods that deliver our products directly to the leaf (foliar, fertigation and etc.). When applied as a foliar the product “sticks” to the plant leaf, the plasma contains a surfactant so it adheres (will not wash off, even in a light rain), then is quickly absorbed by the leaf through the stoma (in minutes) *. Once in the plant, the nutrient enriched algae cells are moved intercellularly (Inter-Cellular Exchange-I.C.E. Technology) until it reaches a plant cell that is deficient. The algae cell then attaches itself to the plant cell, and the nutrients are transferred from the alga cell to the plant cell in a balanced form. This process utilizes cytoplasmic streaming (based on the osmotic pressure differentials) and completes the transfer. This is also used by other Ferticell® nutrients when applied to the plants root. It can be in soil when directly applied or from spray falling to the soil during other applications. Algae cells that are not utilized by roots will remain in the soil as a food source for soil microbes, maintaining and increasing the biome. Universal™ also contains low concentrations of plant growth substances that through biosynthesis facilitates and influences growth. These are not nutrients, but small amounts of chemicals, phytohormones (Greek meaning to Set in Motion). These phytohormones in Universal™ differ from synthetic hormones since the ratios are more balanced for a consistent response. These phytohormones facilitate gene expression, transcription levels, cellular division for differentiation of cells/tissues to promote growth, and development. The most important phytohormones are categorized in five classes. Abscisic Acid (called ABA), one of the most important that typically stimulates cell elongation to influence growth and interrelations between their parts for improved development. Auxins (IAA) promote root stimulation to produce other growth substances in conjunction with Cytokinins. First of the five to be discovered. Cytokinins are a group of chemicals that also influence cell division, shoot formation, delay deterioration from age, and bring about auxin transport. Ethylene gas is formed during the breakdown of methionine found in all cells. Gibberellins (called GA's) promote flowering and cellular division. Will also reverse the restriction of shoot growth and dormancy induced by ABA. These organic substances are naturally occurring to directly influence the orderly process development of a plant. It requires a sequence of activations to produce the required proteins at the appropriate time. They function as chemical messengers to influence physiological processes regulating both internal and external responses. They counteract abiotic stress to maintain growth and survival. Applied during high stress yields continued growth with differentiation (peak phytochemical production in plants) for: Deliver High Energy Carbon in live / dormant algae cells. In one study, it demonstrated 4 x more cytokinin. Rhizophagy is enhanced when phytochemicals are directly used. Root exploitation / pseudo hormonal effect Supports Minimal Leaching Direct Benefits of Utilizing Universal™ 0-0-1 in all your applications: Provides faster assimilation when used with other nutrients applied as foliar and soil applications. It can be used with insecticides, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, etc. for faster assimilation as well, which leads to quicker kills IN the plant. Increases root development by promoting more lateral and deeper roots. Also contains Auxins and Cytokinin’s, which are in balance, so they do not harm plants. Increases resistance to disease, fungus, insects, and other pests. Developing more homogeneous fruits Should be applied during growth flush - for frame building and root flush (rinsing a plant's root zone with water to remove excess nutrients and salts) when a period of intense root growth takes place. Also used for Pre-Bloom, bloom stick, and bud stick for increased flowering and decreased flower loss.
