The newest ICL innovation: Osmocote 5

Each small granule of Osmocote 5 contains the newest technologies for the benefit of healthier, stronger plants. Osmocote 5 features NutriMatch-Release technology for an NPK release pattern that matches the plant needs closer than ever before. It makes the uptake of the applied plant nutrition even more efficient and effective than ever before.

Osmocote 5 offers the ingenious OTEA-system, which optimizes the availability of essential trace elements in the growing medium and their uptake by plants. This guarantees the best possible plant color, health and growth.

Like every Osmocote innovation, Osmocote 5 underwent rigorous testing in various locations across the globe prior to its introduction. Gerard Klein Onstenk, Global Category Manager Ornamental Horticulture at ICL says: “We started testing three years ago, and then did multiple field trials in Europe and even Australia. These field trials were carried out in different ways, climatic conditions, using different crops, potting mixtures, longevities, application methods, and rates. Tests done at independent Europeans research stations validate our claims and the results seen in the trials at our own field-trial stations.”
