Used throughout vegetative growth and flowering, it supplies nitrogen, potassium, calcium and essential trace elements needed for balanced plant nutrition.\n\nFloraMicro’s chelated micronutrient package includes boron, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and zinc. Chelation helps keep these trace elements soluble and available to plants across a practical working pH range.\n\nUsed with FloraGro® and FloraBloom®, FloraMicro supports a complete, adjustable feeding program for hydroponics, coco coir, soil and soilless growing media.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBenefits of FloraMicro\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFoundational 5-0-1 component of the FloraSeries system\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupplies nitrogen, potassium and calcium\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides seven important chelated trace elements\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupports balanced nutrition throughout vegetative growth and flowering\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHelps maintain micronutrient availability in the root zone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjustable ratios accommodate changing plant-growth stages\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with hydroponics, coco coir, soil and soilless media\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChelated Micronutrient Package\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFloraMicro supplies boron, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and zinc in chelated forms.
