Q&A

Osmocote Exact Standard is a third-generation controlled-release fertilizer that provides consistent nutrition throughout the growing season. It ensures that plants receive the right amount of nutrients at the right time, promoting steady growth and vibrant health.

Osmocote Exact Standard features a patterned nutrient release that matches the plants’ needs. This technology ensures optimal safety, efficiency, and reliability, making it suitable for a wide range of ornamental horticulture crops. Due to the patterned release, each bag gives identical results making it possible to accurately predict the nutrient release and adapt the use of Osmocote Exact Standard to your growing conditions.

 

Osmocote Exact Standard granules should be mixed evenly into the growing medium. The application rate varies depending on the pot size and specific crop needs. For example, for a 3-liter pot, apply 5 grams per liter of Osmocote Exact Standard for crops with a normal to high nutrient requirement. Adjust the rate based on specific growing conditions and crop requirements.

Osmocote Exact Standard is ideal for a variety of ornamental plants, including evergreens, deciduous shrubs, and pot plants. Its consistent nutrient release makes it perfect for plants with steady nutrient demands throughout their growing cycle.

Osmocote Exact Standard is available in different longevities to match various growing cycles: 3-4 months, 5-6 months, 8-9 months, and 12-14 months. The longevity is determined by the average soil temperature, with higher temperatures shortening the release period.
