GACIL® Calcium Nitrate Fertilizer Nitrogen and Calcium Water Soluble Fertilizer

Description Calcium Nitrate Fertilizer Calcium Nitrate is a highly effective, 100% water-soluble fertilizer that provides plants with two essential secondary nutrients: Nitrogen and Calcium. It is widely used in agriculture and gardening to promote healthy growth and prevent physiological disorders. Dosage Standard Dosage Recommendations Foliar Spray: Use 6-7 grams per liter of water. This method is ideal for correcting immediate deficiencies and providing a quick boost during fruit development. Fertigation (Drip Irrigation): While specific requirements depend on soil tests, it is generally applied at intervals of 15-20 days. Basal Dose: For soil application during field preparation or transplanting, a common rate is 25-50 kg per acre, though this should be adjusted based on the specific crop's nutrient demand. Application Guidelines Timing: For best results, apply during the vegetative growth stage to build plant structure and again during the fruit development stage to improve quality and shelf life. Compatibility Note: Do not mix Calcium Nitrate with fertilizers containing Sulfates or Phosphates in a concentrated solution, as this can cause the nutrients to precipitate and clog irrigation lines. Best Practices: Always apply early in the morning or late in the evening for foliar sprays to avoid leaf burn and ensure maximum absorption. Benefits Immediate Nitrogen Availability for GrowthUnlike some nitrogen sources that must break down in the soil, the nitrate nitrogen in GACIL® Calcium Nitrate is immediately available. This image visualizes the "nitrogen surge." We see a close-up of young, rapid vegetative growth: bright green, turgid cucumber leaves emerging, with stylized nitrogen molecules (blue) flowing directly into the fast-developing plant tissue, fueling a healthy, green canopy.Enhanced Physiological StrengthCalcium is crucial for cell wall structure. This image shows healthy tomato and cucumber seedlings (representing a crop-agnostic "physiology") grown with GACIL® fertilizer. Notice the sturdy stems and vibrant, turgid leaves, indicating strong cell wall integrity and robust overall health, preventing common physiological disorders.Resistance to Disease (Strong Cell Walls)By providing readily available calcium, GACIL® Calcium Nitrate strengthens plant cell walls, making them a formidable barrier. In this macro shot of a healthy tomato leaf, we visualize a stylized pathogen struggling to penetrate the fortified cuticle, which is thick and resilient. This direct benefit reduces the plant's susceptibility to common diseases and opportunistic fungi.Correcting Calcium Deficiency (Prevents Disorders)A critical application of GACIL® Calcium Nitrate is preventing physiological disorders like Blossom End Rot. This split view provides an illustrative 'Before & After.' The left panel shows a tomato with clear deficiency symptoms (dark, sunken lesions). The right panel shows a healthy, vibrant, and firm tomato grown on a plant receiving adequate calcium from the fertilizer, illustrating the direct correction and prevention of the disorder. Things to Consider 01Nutrient compositionCheck the specific nutrients included in the Calcium Nitrate and verify it aligns with your plants' needs. Some popular micronutrients in these blends include Nitrogen and Calcium.02Application ratesAlways follow the instructions on the product label for proper dilution and application frequency to avoid overfertilization.03Plant compatibilityCertain plants might be sensitive to specific nutrients. Research the appropriate blends for your plant types.04Soil testingWhile helpful, NPK fertilizers might not address underlying soil deficiencies. Consider soil testing to determine specific nutrient needs for targeted solutions.
