Essential is pasteurized and homogenized to bea homogeneous solution. Each ingredient has been selected toprovide all the various stages of organic decomposition (fromfast decomposers to more complex forms of carbon requiringcomplex decomposition). Essential contains 21 L-amino acidsthat promotes nutrient absorption, and stimulates the plantsessential metabolic activities. It also becomes an available foodsource for soil microorganisms. High concentrates of active, sol-

uble humic acid, humus and cellulosefiber will help to replenish soils that havebeen depleted of organic matter.Essential will improve poor or subsoilconditions and compaction. Essentialwill improve plant physiology with sugars, 21amino acids and nutrients that are not available in N-P-K fertilizers.

FOOD SOURCE FOR MICROBIAL ACTIVITY:Beneficial microorganisms need organic matter as a foodsource to survive and increase their population. Essential has ahigh carbon content that slowly decomposes, restoring organicmatter back into the soil. This is especially important in over-worked urban settings such as golf courses, estates, corporatesites, and other manicured landscape settings.

ENHANCES PLANT PHYSIOLOGY:Turf, trees, ornamentals, and nursery and greenhouse stockneed more than just N-P-K fertilizers to remain in superiorhealth. Essential contains vitamins, enzymes, carbohydrates,sugars, amino acids and root stimulators (from kelp). Thesenutrients are absorbed and utilized by the plant to enhancegrowth, vitality and stress resistance. Essential contains naturalplant growth regulators that encourage cell division, root devel-opment and seed germination.

REJUVENATES SOIL STRUCTURE:Essential contains high percentages of active, soluble humates,plant extracts, cellulose fiber and a natural wetting agent whichare critical to maintain healthy soil. By adding organic matterback into soils that have been depleted, even the most difficultsoil conditions can be improved. These ingredients also reducecompaction and improve cation exchange capacities.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS:Essential is 100% soluble for spray applications foliar feeding, soilinjection, or use in irrigation systems. Essential may be mixed withother technical materials and sprayed in one application, savinglabor. Essential can be used on all types of turf grass, shrubs, trees,evergreens and flowering plants, as well as organically grown foodcrops.

SUGGESTED USES:USGA Spec Tees & Greens: Essential should be part of the reg-ular maintenance program to increase the organic matter con-tent in soils and feed beneficial soil microorganisms. Essentialshould be used on newly built tees and greens to increase thecation exchange capacity. Regular use of Essential will improvethe ability of sandy soils to hold nutrients. Essential will improveseed germination and stimulate root growth.

PHC® for Trees 11-22-22 SRNPHC for Trees 11-22-22 SRN is a water-suspendible product that pro-vides both chemical and biological fertility. Its chemically-based ele-ments address trees’ immediate nutritional needs, while its beneficialmicrobes will help to sustain fertility over the long term. A new surfac-tant technology (RZ3) helps the product to readily penetrate soil.PHC for Trees 11-22-22 SRN :•Is a low to moderate nitrogen fertilizer ideal for fall applicationsor other situations where low nitrogen levels are preferred•Provides both macro- and micronutrients to replenish seasonal(short-term) fertility requirements, and promote growth, healthand vigor•Provides select microbes that fix atmospheric nitrogen, solubilizephosphorus and release bound mineral elements in soluble formthrough decomposition of organic materials for long-term fertilitybenefits•Can be applied by soil injection or by drench•Is compatible with PHC Tree Injectable for Trees and othermycorrhizal fungal inoculant products• Its slow-release nitrogen has been very finely ground to improveparticle suspension in most jet or paddle agitation systems.DIRECTIONS FOR USESOIL INJECTION: Mix recommended amount of PHC for Trees withwater, and inject soil to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. Start injectionsimmediately past the root flare, being careful to avoid damage tolarge woody roots. Where possible, injections should cover the entirearea beneath the canopy and just beyond the drip line.Using the recommended rate below will apply 0.6-Lbs of nitrogen and1.3-Lbs of both phosphorus (P2O5) and potassium (K2O) per 1000square feet.Standard Injection Rate:• Mix 8-Lbs (1 bag) PHC for Trees per 100 gallons of water• SOIL INJECT:• 100 gallons per 1250 sq ft (2 quarts per injection on 2.5 footcenters) or
