EF Calcium Trigger

Increases the plant availability of calcium

Calcium Trigger targets the calcium reserve already in your soil that is unavailable to plants and releases it in a plant-available form (needed by all plants and beneficial soil microbes).

When combined with Humus Builder foliar sprays, calcium, sulphur, iron, nitrogen and phosphate are provided for plant growth.

Benefits

  • An economic way to increase plant available calcium without the cost of lime.
  • Applied with Humus Builder provides nitrogen and phosphate for plants.
  • Stimulates root growth, allowing them to grow deeper into the soil to access more minerals.
  • Great way to quickly and cheaply increase calcium levels on lease blocks.
  • Good way to boost calcium levels for higher brix crop growth.
