In-Furrow

Fluid Starter in beaker

For growers that have planters that utilize an in-furrow, or "pop-up" placement of fluid starter fertilizer, Liqui-Grow manufactures a line of "low-salt" products. These products can be placed directly on the seed at 3 to 5 gallons per acre. These clear, "true solutions" are manufactured from super-phosphoric acid, potassium hydroxide, and urea or anhydrous ammonia.

Products available include:

6-24-6–.25(Zn)
9-18-9
8-19-3

2x2 applied to young crops

2 x 2 Placement

For growers that use planters equipped to apply fluid starter 2x2 or on the surface and 2 inches to the side of the seed row, Liqui-Grow manufactures a line of high-quality, clear-green products. These analyses are made from high-polyphosphate 10-34-0, soluble potassium chloride, supplemental Nitrogen (UAN solution), sulfur, and zinc.

Some of the analyses available are:

Poly-Plex 7-18-6-2(S)–.50(Zn)
Poly-K+ 4-10-10-1(S)–.25(Zn)
7-21-7
4-10-10

Nutrients

Nitrogen

Urea - Ammonium Nitrate solution (UAN), 32% N, is the principle source of all supplemental nitrogen, whether it is added to suspension in the fall, applied in early spring, used as a carrier for herbicides as a weed and feed before or after planting or as a post emergence application.

In addition to straight UAN solution, sulfur and potash can be added to UAN to make various grades such as 20-0-4-2(S) in order to provide the grower with various amounts of additional sulfur and potassium. These products can be applied 2x2 at planting, as a side-dress application, or through fertigation. Side-dress application of analyses such as 20-0-4-2(S) makes sense when plant uptake of nutrients has been reduced due to excessive moisture or compaction.

Field treated with pre-plant Phosphorus and Potassium.

Pre-plant Phosphorous and Potassium

The Liqui-Grow product line utilizes fluid suspension fertilizer grades to meet required maintenance or build-up applications of phosphorous and potassium. These products are typically applied pre-plant (Fall or Spring) for corn and soybean crops and placed in concentrated bands through "strip-application.” The following fluid analyses are some of the base analyses that can be used to formulate a program or recommendation:

10-32-0/2 SLX
2-6-35 SLX
3-10-30 SLX
