Eurosolids Calcium Nitrate | 25kg

Eurosolids Calcium Nitrate

The Eurosolids Calcium Nitrate is a top-quality fertilizer that is highly soluble in water. Calcium nitrate is an inorganic compound with the formula Ca(NO₃)₂. This colourless salt absorbs moisture from the air and is commonly found as a tetrahydrate. It is mainly used as a component in fertilizers but has other applications. This fertilizer grade (15.5-0-0 + 26.3 CaO) is popular in the greenhouse, horticulture, and hydroponics trades. Calcium nitrate is also used to control certain plant diseases. For example, dilute calcium nitrate (and calcium chloride) sprays are used to control bitter pit and cork spots in apple trees.
