Nutri-Plus Amino Acid Fertilizer for Plants

Ferticell™ Nutri-Plus is a product containing active unicellular freshwater algae cells and high levels of amino acids. The algae cells are especially important in plant nutrition for increased yields, precocity, and quality in all crops. Amino acids act as natural stimulators for biological activity. They greatly influence rapid fixation of carbonic anhydride for photosynthesis, while producing a regulatory and balanced endo-cellular activity. The balance of amino acids results in an increased efficiency of protein formation, fertility of pollen, and resistance to cold weather stress.

Unlike our organic liquid nitrogen fertilizer, Explorer™ 16-0-0, Ferticell™ Nutri-Plus consists of unicellular algae cells and amino acids which are completely neutral and biologically active, making assimilation of nutrients rapid and complete. The amino acids are incorporated into the metabolic cycle of the crop, saving the plant energy for increased production.

The high Glycine content of the product (which constitutes the first link in the synthesis of chlorophyll), plus Proline, Alanine, and Arginine are an important source of Nitrogen. These amino acids provide a “value added” protein Nitrogen which is essential for balancing the four forms of Nitrogen in crop inputs, contributing to the savings of nitrogenous fertilizing requirements. The high levels of a balanced amino acid profile are extremely important in this product as these are the precursors for the formation of several other amino acids internally in the plant.

All amino acids do not have the same characteristics inside the plant, and are required in different quantities. The proportion varies by species and the physiological state of the plant. The most suitable time for applying Ferticell™ Nutri-Plus is when crops show specific needs such as growth, firming, and increased size of the fruit, or when frost, drought, disease or pests are prevalent. Ferticell™ Nutri-Plus may also be used in a frost protection program for a farm.

Nutri-Plus Amino Acid Features & Benefits

  • Applications prior to, during, or directly following a stress event can boost internal mechanisms within the plant and can prevent damage or facilitate crop recovery
  • Nutri-Plus is certified for organic use with 19 out of the 20 essential amino acids
  • Nutri-Plus has shown to increase protein formation and reduce plant stress and lowers energy requirements for protein synthesis
  • Nutri-Plus has high levels of a balanced amino acid profile which are precursors for the formation of the other amino acids in the plant along with high glycine content, an amino acid which is the first link in chlorophyll synthesis
  • Stimulates protein formation in the plant
  • Promotes biological activity in the root zone
  • Works as a complexing agent for other nutrients

What does Ferticell Nutri-Plus do for plants, and when should growers apply it?

Ferticell Nutri-Plus delivers active unicellular freshwater algae cells and a balanced profile of 19 out of 20 essential amino acids to support growth, fruit sizing, and stress recovery. The best time to apply Ferticell Nutri-Plus is before, during, or directly after a stress event such as frost, drought, disease, or pest pressure, as well as during periods of active growth and fruit development. Ferticell Nutri-Plus can also be incorporated into a frost protection program.

How does the amino acid profile in Ferticell Nutri-Plus benefit crop production?

Ferticell Nutri-Plus contains high levels of Glycine, Proline, Alanine, and Arginine, which serve as precursors for the formation of additional amino acids inside the plant. The high Glycine content is especially significant because Glycine is the first link in chlorophyll synthesis, and the full amino acid profile stimulates protein formation, reduces the energy the plant must spend on protein synthesis, and promotes biological activity in the root zone.

What is the nitrogen content of Ferticell Nutri-Plus, and where does the nitrogen come from?

Ferticell Nutri-Plus carries an N-P-K of 2.5-0-0, with total nitrogen at 2.5 percent derived from soybean meal and freshwater algae. The nitrogen is broken down as 0.27% ammoniacal nitrogen, 0.05% nitrate nitrogen, and 2.18% other water-insoluble nitrogen, providing a "value added" protein nitrogen that helps balance the four forms of nitrogen in a crop nutrition program.

Is Ferticell Nutri-Plus certified organic, and is it safe to use in organic growing programs?

Ferticell Nutri-Plus is certified for organic use, making it suitable for organic growing programs. The product is classified as organic-based and is derived from natural sources including soybean meal and freshwater algae. Note that Ferticell Nutri-Plus does not carry OMRI certification.

Can Ferticell Nutri-Plus be used in hydroponic or soilless growing systems?

Ferticell Nutri-Plus is suitable for both soil and soilless growing systems. The amino acids and algae cells in Ferticell Nutri-Plus are described as completely biologically active, allowing rapid and complete nutrient assimilation across a range of growing media.

How does Ferticell Nutri-Plus differ from a standard liquid nitrogen fertilizer?

Unlike a conventional organic liquid nitrogen fertilizer such as Ferticell Explorer 16-0-0, Ferticell Nutri-Plus is built around unicellular algae cells and amino acids that are completely neutral and biologically active, enabling faster and more complete assimilation. Because the amino acids in Ferticell Nutri-Plus are incorporated directly into the plant's metabolic cycle, the plant expends less energy on protein synthesis and can redirect that energy toward increased production.
