Flourish Nitrogen™ 250ML

Quick Overview <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Overview</strong> Nitrogen is one of the main three macro nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium: NPK) required by plants and can often become the limiting factor to growth in a flourishing system. Flourish Nitrogen™ is a concentrated (15,000 mg/L) blend of nitrogen sources. It provides nitrogen in both the nitrate form and the plant–preferred ammonium form. However, no free ammonia is released because the ammonium in Flourish Nitrogen™ is complexed and unavailable until utilized by the plants. Ammonium becomes available after conversion of urea (carbamide). Flourish Nitrogen™ also provides nitrate for those plants that can readily utilize nitrate as well. For maximum benefit, use with Flourish Phosphorus™ and Flourish Potassium™. Flourish Nitrogen™ is safe for invertebrates such as shrimp. <strong>Directions</strong> <strong>Beginner</strong> Use 2.5 mL (half a cap) for each 160 L (40 US gallons) twice a week or as needed in response to signs of nitrogen deficiency (e.g. stunted growth, chlorosis). For smaller doses, please note that each cap thread is approximately 1 mL. <strong>Expert</strong> The beginner dose raises nitrogen by the same degree that 1 mg/L nitrate would. This dose is sufficient to provide approximately 4 g of growth (dry) or about 20 g (hydrated) over a 1 month period (assuming all other necessary nutrients are provided). For increased growth use proportionately more. To target a specific nitrogen increase, dose according to the following formula: 0.25vn=m, where v= volume of tank in gallons, n=desired nitrogen increase (if using a “nitrate equivalent” value for “n” then use a factor of 0.05 instead of 0.25 in the formula) and m=volume of product to use in mL. For example to raise 20 gallons by 0.20 mg/L nitrogen you would use: 0.25*20*0.20=1 mL. Because one-half of the nitrogen in Flourish Nitrogen™ is from nitrate you can get a reasonable estimate of nitrogen levels by doubling a nitrate reading. <strong>Dosage Calculator</strong> <a href="https://www.seachem.com/flourish-nitrogen.php">https://www.seachem.com/flourish-nitrogen.php</a></p> <div class="panel-heading"> <h4 class="panel-title" style="text-align: justify;"><a class="accordion-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" href="https://www.seachem.com/flourish-nitrogen.php#collapse8Six">Ingredients</a></h4> </div> <div class="accordion-body collapse in" id="collapse8Six"> <div class="panel-body m-md"> <div class="row"> <div class="mb-xl"> <div class="col-md-4"> <table class="table table-striped font-size-sm"> <thead> <tr> <th style="text-align: justify;">Amounts per 1 g</th> <th style="text-align: justify;"> </th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td style="text-align: justify;">Total Nitrogen (N)</td> <td style="text-align: justify;">1.5%</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: justify;">Soluble Potash (K<sub>2</sub>O)</td> <td style="text-align: justify;">2%</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <div class="col-md-8"> <p class="font-size-sm line-height-md">Derived from: potassium nitrate, urea</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>
