Stockosorb Medium 1 kg

The most important property of STOCKOSORB Hydrogel Granules is that it stores water and plant nutrients dissolved in water, and in case of drought, it releases the stored water evenly and completely back into the soil and the plant root system.Product ingredients STOCKOSORB is a cross-linked copolymer of acrylamide and acrylic acid, partially neutralized with potassium and ammonium salt. When exposed to irrigation or precipitation, STOCKOSORB swells to form a water-retaining hydrogel. The formation of water molecules causes the polymer network to expand. The molecules form a three-dimensional network. By cross-linking, STOCKOSORB becomes insoluble in water. The acrylamide improves gel stability and long-lasting effect in soil, and in combination with the potassium salt, ensures high water-holding capacity. The use of ammonium salt results in an ecotoxicologically insignificant product. Methods of application: -dry STOCKOSORB 500 medium can be spread by hand, with a fertiliser spreader or sprayer, before sowing or planting, and the soil should be ploughed to a depth of 15 cm; -dry granules can be placed in the sowing (planting) furrow together with the fertiliser; -as a pre-wetting gel: 1 kg STOCKOSORB 500 micro is dissolved in 200 l water and left to swell for 30 minutes. The gel solution is applied to the pit in the conventional planting method; APPLICATION AREAS: TREES, CHERRY, Shrubs: Evergreens:800 g / m3; Deciduous: 1.200 g / m3 Mix STOCKOSORB® into the soil under and around the root system and water thoroughly. GROWING / VEGETATION: Application rate: 100 g / m2 Introduce STOCKOSORB® into the soil to a depth of about 10-15 cm depending on the expected root length and water thoroughly! For larger areas in the garden or park, use a rotary hoe! GYEP: Application rate: 50-100g/m2 Apply STOCKOSORB with a seed drill at a depth of 10-15 cm in two directions and rotary hoe! STOCKOSORB also improves seedling survival in forest plantations! The amount of water used for planting can be significantly reduced without having a negative impact on the usual silvicultural outcome. By using STOCKOSORB, the planting season can be extended to dry months, which were previously unsuitable for planting due to an unacceptably high risk of mortality. In the case of commercially planted seedlings, insufficient water is considered one of the main factors inhibiting growth and survival. By using STOCKOSORB, planting costs are reduced by 25%. As a dry granulate: dosage rate: 3-4 grams per seedling Spray STOCKOSORB into the planting hole or depression. Plant conventionally. Water immediately after planting to soak the polymer granules with water! As a pre-wetting gel: dosage rate: 400-600 ml per plant Pour 200 l of water into a barrel, add 1 kg of STOCKOSORB, allow to swell for 30 minutes. Pour the gel solution into the pit and plant in the traditional way! Horticultural soil (bottom layers) treated with STOCKOSORB will prolong the shelf life of container plants. Most ornamental plants grown in containers are very sensitive to water shortages. This problem also exists in retail market conditions, where the frequency of watering depends on the convenience of the retailer rather than the needs of the plants. STOCKOSORB changes the water balance of the plant, thus positively influencing one of the most important factors responsible for growth. For these reasons it is also highly recommended for commercially planted plants! The benefits of STOCKOSORB are: increased water retention capacity, improved soil aeration, improved root growth, extended shelf life (allowed storage) for container grown plants, reduced water requirements promote growth and flowering. Avoiding -water stress stress- and protecting against possible damage during planting is particularly important for growers and retailers. Water thoroughly after use!
