Amino Chelate K delivers potassium chelated with plant-available amino acids for fast, efficient uptake through both leaves and roots. Its balanced composition—8% K2O, 42% free amino acids, and 9% organic nitrogen—supports high-demand stages such as flowering, fruit fill, and pre-harvest, while its neutral pH makes it suitable for sensitive growth windows.
✅ Key Features & Benefits
Chelated Potassium for Enhanced Uptake
This formulation supplies 8% potassium (K2O) protected by amino acid chelation. The chelate reduces fixation in the soil and promotes rapid foliar and root absorption, improving delivery to active sinks. With 42% free amino acids acting as natural carriers, potassium mobility within the plant is enhanced, directing it to fruits and growing tips where demand is highest.
Synergistic Nutrition and Biostimulation
Potassium drives sugar transport, fruit sizing, color development, and storability. The amino acid chelate improves the probability that potassium reaches the fruit effectively, supporting higher brix and more uniform sizing. By regulating stomatal function and osmotic balance, potassium helps plants manage water status; the amino chelate further supports tolerance to abiotic stress such as drought and heat. The 9% organic nitrogen complements potassium’s role in enzyme activation and photosynthesis for balanced growth and improved nutrient use efficiency.
Key Benefits
It corrects potassium deficiency quickly and efficiently, increases brix levels, fruit weight, and uniformity, and supports resilience against drought, cold, and common stress-related disorders. Its neutral pH makes it suitable for use during sensitive stages, including flowering and pre-harvest.

🌱 Application Guidelines
Foliar Application (Recommended)
Use 2–4 grams per liter of water. Apply 300–500 L per hectare per spray. Time applications during fruit enlargement, pre-harvest, or at the first signs of potassium deficiency such as marginal leaf scorch. Repeat every 10–14 days as needed.
Fertigation
Apply 3–6 kg per hectare per application. Fully dissolve the product in water before introducing it into the irrigation system to ensure uniform distribution.
Compatibility
The product is compatible with most pesticides and fertilizers. Avoid mixing with concentrated calcium or magnesium fertilizers without performing a jar test. Due to its neutral to slightly alkaline pH, it generally mixes well with many calcium products, but verify compatibility before tank mixing.
❓ FAQ
Q1: Why use amino acid–chelated potassium instead of SOP or MOP?
A: SOP and MOP can be subject to leaching or soil fixation and are less efficient in foliar feeding. Amino acid chelation improves uptake efficiency, especially via leaves, while providing biostimulant effects from free amino acids.
Q2: When is the best time to use Amino Chelate K?
A: Apply from flowering to fruit set to support retention and early fruit development, during fruit bulking to enhance sugar accumulation and size, pre-harvest to support quality and storability, and during periods of drought or high temperature stress.
Q3: Can it be mixed with calcium-containing products?
A: It is generally compatible due to its neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Always conduct a jar test to prevent precipitation.
Q4: Is this product suitable for organic farming?
A: If the amino acids are plant-derived via enzymatic hydrolysis, it may be acceptable for organic use. Confirm with your certification body.
Q5: What crops benefit most from Amino Chelate K?
A: Fruit crops such as tomatoes, grapes, citrus, and bananas; tubers like potatoes; flowering ornamentals; and any crop sensitive to potassium deficiency or requiring high sugar content and improved quality.
