Uniform Granular High-tower Technology NPK compound fertilizer 14-14-18 is the perfect fertilizer for vegetables and crops. It contains all the necessary nutrients needed for healthy plant growth:14% nitrogen, 14% phosphorus, and 18% potassium.
1.Nitrogen
It is the basis for proteins in plants and animals, and is present in the chloroplasts, which are the molecules within plants that perform photosynthesis, making food for the plants.
2.Phosphorus
Phosphorus is often referred to as "The Energizer" for its role in converting the sun's energy into food, fuel and fiber.
3.Potassium
Potassium is one of the three primary crop nutrients required for plant growth. Potassium serves as the "Regulator" of many essential processes within the plant.
One of the great features of this fertilizer is that it is made using high-tower technology. This technology ensures that the fertilizer has a uniform granular texture, which makes it easy to handle and apply. The uniformity of the granules also ensures that the nutrients are distributed evenly throughout the soil, providing maximum benefits to the plants.
Using this fertilizer on your crops and vegetables will result in healthier plants with better yields. The nutrients in this fertilizer are released slowly over time, providing a constant supply of nutrients to the plants throughout the growing season. This means that your plants will receive the nutrients they need, when they need them, resulting in faster growth and higher yields.

The difference between potassium sulfate (K2SO4) and potassium chloride (KCl):
Potassium sulfate (K2SO4) and potassium chloride (KCl) are two common potassium fertilizers that have some differences in their chemical composition and mode of action.
Chemical composition: Potassium sulfate: Potassium sulfate contains potassium (K) and sulfur (S), of which the content of potassium is usually higher, is one of the main components of potassium sulfate fertilizer. Potassium chloride: Potassium chloride contains potassium (K) and chloride (Cl), of which the content of potassium is also higher, is one of the main components of potassium chloride fertilizer.
Mode of action: Potassium sulfate: Potassium sulfate provides two essential elements of potassium and sulfur for plants to absorb and use. Potassium is a key element needed for plant growth and development, promoting root development, improving disease resistance and increasing yield. Sulfur also plays an important role in protein synthesis, plant growth and nutrient absorption. Potassium chloride: Potassium chloride also provides potassium for plants to absorb and use. Chloride plays an important role in photosynthesis and ion balance in plants, but not all plants have the same requirements for chloride. Some plants are allergic or intolerant to chloride, so potassium chloride may not be the preferred potassium fertilizer in these cases.
Soil and crop suitability:
Potassium sulfate: Potassium sulfate is suitable for most soil types, especially alkaline soil, because potassium sulfate can also help improve the acidity of the soil. It is suitable for many crops, including grains, vegetables, fruit trees, etc.
Potassium chloride: Potassium chloride dissolves easily in soil and is suitable for a variety of soil types. It is also suitable for many crops, including corn, potatoes, vegetables, etc. However, for some chlorine-sensitive crops (such as strawberries, peanuts, etc.), the use of potassium chloride may need to be cautious.
To sum up, there are some differences between potassium sulfate and potassium chloride in chemical composition, mode of action and applicability. When choosing which fertilizer to use, you need to consider the chloride requirements of the plant, the soil type and other factors.
When using nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, the following points need to be noted:
Understand fertilizer composition and content. Different plants have different requirements for nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, so the appropriate fertilizer should be selected according to the needs of the plant.
Choose the right time and way to apply fertilizer. Fertilization time is generally in the critical period of plant growth, such as flowering, fruit, growth period and so on. The fertilization method can be hole application, strip application, irrigation and fertilization, etc., the specific way should be selected according to the needs of plants and soil conditions.
Apply fertilizer properly. According to the needs of plants and soil conditions to determine the amount and frequency of fertilization, to avoid excessive fertilization, so as not to cause excess or deficiency of plant nutrition.
Mixed fertilization. Pay attention to the selection and collocation of fertilizers, but also pay attention to the use of other fertilizers or organic fertilizers, in order to give full play to the fertilizer effect and improve the growth rate and yield of plants.
Follow scientific fertilization principles. That is, "appropriate, timely, appropriate method", on the basis of following the scientific principle of fertilization, the reasonable use of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer can better promote the growth of plants and increase the yield.
Nitro-compound fertilizer is a high-concentration N, P and K compound fertilizer produced by adding phosphorus, potassium and other compound fertilizer materials with ammonium nitrate as nitrogen source. Its products contain both nitrate and ammonium nitrogen. The main products are ammonium nitrate phosphorus, ammonium nitrate phosphorus potassium.
Nitro-compound fertilizer is an important agricultural fertilizer, which is mainly suitable for cash crops such as tobacco, corn, melons and fruits, vegetables and fruit trees, as well as alkaline soil and karst landform areas, and its application effect is better than urea in alkaline soil and karst landform areas.
Different plants have different preferences for nitrate and ammonium nitrogen. Calcium-loving plants that are suitable for growing on calcareous soil with high pH value preferentially use nitrate nitrogen, such as corn and most vegetables, cotton, tobacco, fruit trees, etc., are also cash crops that prefer nitrate nitrogen. Calciphobe plants suitable for acidic soil and plants suitable for low REDOX potential soil are fond of ammonium nitrogen. Under the condition of controlling the ratio of different nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen, the vegetable cultivation experiment was carried out. The relative yield of all nitrate nitrogen was 100%. When the ratio of ammonium nitrogen exceeded 30%, the vegetable would be reduced, and the yield of all ammonium nitrogen was less than 20% of all nitrate nitrogen. In the book Vegetable Cultivation in China, it is clearly pointed out that "vegetables are nitrin-tolerant crops, and when the amount of ammonium nitrogen exceeds 50%, the yield of onion decreases significantly, while spinach is more sensitive to ammonium nitrogen and has the highest yield under the condition of 100% nitrate nitrogen."
Chloride-containing compound fertilizers are generally used in crops and soils with strong chloride resistance. Specifically, chloride-containing compound fertilizers are suitable for the following crops:
Chloride resistant crops, such as rice, cotton, kenaf, spinach, sugar beet, sorghum, millet, etc.
Crops with moderate chloride tolerance, such as wheat, rape, corn, soybeans, broad beans, peas, sugarcane, peanuts, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, etc.
For crops with weak chloride resistance, such as potatoes, watermelon, citrus, tea, chili, kakeh, grapes, etc., in areas where the soil chloride content is less than 50 mg/kg, such crops can be properly used with potassium chloride or chloride-containing low-chloride fertilizers.
In addition, the use of chloride-containing compound fertilizer is also affected by soil conditions. In rainy or irrigated areas, it can be applied in the base fertilizer, because the chloride in the soil is easily lost with water. In arid areas or soil salinization is more common, chloride-containing fertilizer should be applied less or no.
It should be noted that some crops are sensitive to chloride-containing fertilizers, such as tobacco, sweet potatoes, tea, etc., and the application of chloride-containing fertilizers will affect product quality. Therefore, when using chloride-containing compound fertilizer, it should be selected and applied appropriately according to the chloride resistance of crops and soil conditions.
The characteristics of pure sulfur compound fertilizer are: high efficiency, complete water solubility, pure potassium sulfate, promoting root and strengthening fruit.
1 High efficiency: due to pure sulfur with nitrate nitrogen, nitrogen nutrition can be immediately digested and absorbed by crops after use, and fertility is fast and prominent, and fertilizer utilization is high.
2 Completely water soluble: pure sulfur with fast dissolution, no sediment, nutrient release more uniform characteristics, can effectively improve fertilizer utilization.
3 Pure potassium sulfate: used in beans, Onions, ginger garlic, red extract, tomatoes and other crops that love sulfur elements, can significantly improve protein, vitamin C and other content.
4 Promote root and strong fruit: pure sulfur base can harmonize soil layer nutrient supply, improve crop living environment, promote root growth and development, and improve plant drought immunity.
How to Choose the Right Fertilizer?
The NPK numbers on fertilizer are a way to provide the nutrients that may be missing in your garden soil, which is why the soil test is important as a first step. Your soil may have plenty of one and not enough of the others. If you get your soil tested by an extension service, you'll know which numbers to look for when you buy fertilizer.
Many soils have sufficient phosphorus and potassium for plants, but not enough nitrogen. And plants do not use as much phosphorus as nitrogen and potassium. That means that choosing the right fertilizer may mean picking a fertilizer with a higher first number or three different numbers like 16-8-2.
Knowing the NPK values of a fertilizer will help you select one that's appropriate for the type of plant you're growing. For example, if you're growing leafy vegetables, you may want to apply a fertilizer that has a higher nitrogen number to encourage leafy growth. If you're growing flowers, you may want to apply a fertilizer that has a higher phosphorus number to encourage more blooms.
