STEP Hi-Mag Micronutrients | 50lb (40/PL)

Frequently Asked Questions

What does STEP Hi-Mag actually add to my program?

It's specially formulated to improve the overall performance of your major nutrient program by providing important secondary and micronutrients. It supports initial and continued growth of container-grown and landscape ornamentals rather than replacing a primary fertilizer.

Why does this formulation emphasize magnesium?

The formulation provides a higher level of magnesium, in addition to a combination of readily available and slowly available forms of micronutrients. That elevated magnesium is what gives the Hi-Mag line its name.

What's the difference between the readily available and slowly available forms?

Readily available forms correct deficiencies quickly, while the slowly available forms sustain micronutrient supply over a longer window. Combining both gives ornamentals near-term correction and longer-term coverage in one package.

Who manufactures STEP Hi-Mag?

It's manufactured by ICL Growing Solutions, part of the same ICL family behind Peters Professional, Osmocote, and Agriform. STEP Hi-Mag micronutrients are also supplied as a blended ingredient within several Osmocote Blend fertilizers.

What size and packaging is this listing?

It ships as a 50lb bag, 40 per pallet, sized for the micronutrient package's role as a program supplement. That volume suits commercial nursery or landscape operations feeding ornamentals at scale.

How and when should STEP Hi-Mag be applied?

Blend it into your regular fertigation program as a supplement to your primary nutrient feed, rather than applying it as a standalone product. It's typically incorporated on a continuous basis alongside major nutrients throughout the growing cycle to sustain the elevated magnesium and micronutrient levels ornamentals need.
