Organics Alive Dry Soluble Powders are 100% soluble. They are not micronized nor liquid suspension. They will dissolve in water and become a solution. This allows our fertilizers to be used in all irrigation systems, automatic dosers, foggers, atomizers, jet fans, and flat tape. Our fertilizers do not collect biofilms nor do they accumulate salt or mineral composites in fertigation systems. 

• 1 tsp/5ml per gallon of water.
• Larger fruit plants: 2 tsp/10ml per gallon.
• 5-10 lbs per acre (depending on crop and soil analysis).
• Foliar Spray Applications: 1 tsp. per gallon

Regular fertilizers break down into nutrient ions (NO3-, PO4-2 or K+) and are absorbed by the plant roots through active transport, meaning the plant needs to expend some energy and/or exchange other nutrients to allow absorption. 

OA fertilizers do not undergo this break down process because they are built on carbon and are neutral. This neutrality allows them to pass through the epidermis of the plant through topical foliar applications. The carbon acts as a facilitator for passive absorption which allows the plant to take in nutrients and save energy for its growth.   

Conventional 

Conventional fertilizers are comprised of salt: a compound made of one positive (cation) and one negative (anion) component. All conventional synthetic and organic fertilizers have a large salt composition. These ions separate in water (soil moisture), creating higher concentrations of  ions that can burn plant roots and leaves. Higher concentrations of salt will deplete soil oxygen and water, depriving soil microorganisms and the soil structure of the qualities needed to create a healthy environment for your plants to thrive.

OA fertilizers do not break into anions and cations because they are built on carbon. 

Therefore, OA fertilizers are neutral and do not contain excessive salts like conventional fertilizers. 

Regular fertilizers break down into nutrient ions (NO3-, PO4-2 or K+) and are absorbed by the plant roots through active transport, meaning the plant needs to expend energy and/or exchange other nutrients to allow absorption inside the plant. OA fertilizers do not undergo this break down process because they are built on carbon and are neutral. The carbon acts as a facilitator for passive absorption which allows the plant to save energy for its growth.
