20 Mule Team Borax-Solubor DF 5# *RESTRICTED*
(Sodium Tetraborate, 20.5% B) Soluble borate for fluid fertilizers and nutrient sprays. Boron is essential for all stages of tree growth and fruit set. Alfalfa, clover, brassicas, carrots, celery, corn, lettuce, onions, beets, tomatoes, and tree fruits are particularly sensitive to boron deficiency. May be used in certified organic settings only to correct a documented boron deficiency. Dry flowable powder, mixes easily in any spray solution. Soil test results will indicate if Boron in your soil is below the optimum level. Suppose it is 0.5 PPM below the optimum level. The formula for determining pounds of Solubor® per acre is (thankfully) simple: multiply the deficiency figure (in this case, 0.5) by 10; the answer is 5# Solubor® needed per acre. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Baystate Organic Certification Note: Requires documented deficiency in Boron. Not to be used as an herbicide or dessicant.
