NPK Ratio: 5-3-3

  • N (Nitrogen) - 5%: Nitrogen promotes vigorous growth and lush, green foliage. It is essential for the production of chlorophyll, which helps plants photosynthesize effectively.

  • P (Phosphorus) - 3%: Phosphorus is important for strong root development and flowering. It aids in energy transfer and is critical for the overall health of the plant.

  • K (Potassium) - 3%: Potassium enhances plant health by regulating water uptake and nutrient transport. It also improves disease resistance and encourages vibrant blooms.
