Phosphate and Plant Development

Phosphorus (phosphate) is an essential plant macronutrient involved in energy transfer, root development, and reproductive growth including flowering and fruiting. Fish Bone Powder 4-20-0 provides phosphate at high concentration from a marine-derived fish bone source processed via enzymatic hydrolyzation, resulting in a fine, free-flowing powder that can be blended into growing media or applied to soil. When phosphorus is adequate, plants tend to develop strong root systems, set buds readily, and produce flowers, fruits, and vegetables effectively.
