Phytomax 6% Iron Chelate (Gluconate)
Iron (Fe) is one of the key elements in plant chlorophyll structure. Its deficiency is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies in agricultural and orchard soils, leading to reduced chlorophyll content, manifested as leaf chlorosis (yellowing) and, eventually, leaf and whole-plant necrosis. Iron availability significantly decreases in alkaline soils, where it tends to precipitate and become unavailable to plants. Chelation of iron resolves this issue, making iron readily accessible to the plant.

Guaranteed Analysis:
| Component | Content |
| Chelated Iron (Fe) | 6% |
| Total Iron | 5.78% |
| Water-Soluble Iron | 5.85% |
Ingredients:
Iron Sulfate, Gluconic Acid, Ammonia
Application Instructions:
The application rate depends on soil type, climatic conditions, and plant species and growth stage. The following are general guidelines. It is recommended to test the fertilizer on a small scale before large-scale application.
| Crop Type | Fertigation | Foliar Spray | Timing |
| Field Crops | 3–4 L/ha | 1–2 L per 1000 L water | During growth, repeat every 15 days depending on deficiency severity |
| Fruit Trees | 3–5 L/ha | 2 L per 1000 L water | From the beginning of growth and leaf formation, repeat every 15 days depending on deficiency severity |
