The Chemistry

Max Organic Plus Organic Fertilizer contains a minimum N-P-K formula of 4-2-2 and is manufactured by an organic process applied to uncomposted poultry litter. The nitrogen component is 89.5 percent insoluble and 10.5 percent soluble. This is a complete fertilizer with all of the other micro-nutrients needed by the plant.

The key to Max Organic Plus Organic Fertilizer's success is its ability to enrich the soil and feed the microbe population. The resultant microbe bloom will convert the nitrogen into ALL the essential amino acids and feed the plants. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, Max Organic Plus Organic Fertilizer feeds the soil. A healthy growing medium will produce healthy plants, allowing them to draw much needed nitrogen from the air and accessing a full complement of micronutrients from the soil. Additional nitrogen is available directly from the fertilizer as well as in the organic faction of the soil.

Plants able to get nitrogen in this way will not be subject to the burning that is traditionally associated with uncomposted manure or synthetic fertilizers. Max Organic Plus is guaranteed not to burn. Ammonium nitrogen (insoluble NH4) is slowly changed to ammonia nitrogen (soluble NO3) by the microbes.

The nutrition available to the plants is in elemental form. The chemicals are not complexed, but rather a carefully balanced array available for uptake through the root systems. The result is the necessary photosynthesis. Available organic sulfur maximizes chlorophyll production and plant nitrogen intake.

AG-ORG P/L Fertilizer supplies organic complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides) to the soil. These energy sources are normally supplied to plants by insects, worms, grubs and microbes. The organic fertilizer offsets the lack of these in many soils. AG-ORG P/L is 24 percent carbon by volume. Carbon eating microbes then are able to contribute to polysaccharide fixation.

The micronutrients present make their major contribution to plant growth as constituents of the enzyme and hormone systems and participate in biochemical oxidation and reduction reactions. The enzyme nitrogenase provides a site for combining nitrogen with hydrogen to form ammonium in the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen. Enzymes are not destroyed in the reaction, but are used over and over again. The presence of iron, manganese and zinc are critical for chlorophyll synthesis.

The presence of magnesium is important as a component of chlorophyll. It aids in translocation of starch and formation of fats and oils involved in adsorption, movement and utility of phosphorous.

Of all the nutrients supplied to the plants, N-P-K are required in the greatest amounts and are most often deficient. Of the three, N is stored only in organic matter where it is accumulated through fixation. P, though not K, is also stored in soil organic matter. And Sulfur is similarly stored. S, with N and P, is released for organic combination by mineralization. Each of the elements occurs in protein or protein-like compounds in plants, their residue and the organic faction of the soil.
