Osmocote Exact Lo-Start

Osmocote Exact combines safety, consistency, longevity and patterned release. This 3rd generation of controlled release fertilizers allows real control over the nutrient supply to the plant as the release of nutrients is matched by the plant’s needs due to patterned release. 

Osmocote Exact Lo-Start, the 3rd generation of controlled release fertilizers, combines safety, consistency and patterned release. Different plants have different nutritional requirements and therefore need coated fertilizers that do not only guarantee longevity but also release pattern. Osmocote Exact closely follows plant growth, making the product not only very efficient but also very safe to use.

• Consistency: very consistent product, every bag of product gives identical results, excellent quality control exceeding all industry standards.
• Patterned release: available in various release patterns exactly tailored to crop requirements, to provide optimal plant growth. Very efficient and therefore environmentally friendly.

Osmocote Exact products are the safest Osmocote products ever. They allow real control over the nutrient supply to the plant as the release of nutrients is matched by the plants needs due to patterned release. Its regular release pattern is ideal for fast-growing conifers and evergreens.
For CNS autumn pottings we advise to apply 2-3 g/l in autumn followed by 2-3 g/l of Osmocote Exact Standard 8-9M in spring.
