The Super Citrus Tablet is the
result of a request to us from Naples Fertilizer & Garden Center of
Naples, FL. They wanted a tablet of the same specification as their
citrus granular fertilizer, which was formulated several years ago to
meet the need of Florida citrus.
The advantage of the tablets over broadcasting granular fertilizer is that they feed up to 12 months. For
example, soil testing done by Dr. Arvel Hunter of Agro Services of
Orange City, Florida, documents that 70% of broadcasted fertilizer is
lost in sandy soils after 10" of water (rain + irrigation). The average
annual rain plus irrigation in Florida is over 65", therefore, it takes
several broadcast feedings to achieve the results of one Lutz Tablet
feeding.
How Lutz Citrus Tablets Work On Citrus Trees
- Install Lutz Citrus tablets in the root zone area.
- Each tablets contains elements required in citrus
trees, plus elemental sulfur which create an environment in the feeding
area to assist in the uptake of these elements. Special binders safely
release the elements over time.
- When placed in the ground, the tablets dissolve slowly
for up to twelve months. Lutz tablets work underground at the feeder
roots to release the elements where the trees get their nourishment.
They can't wash away like surface applications.
