Product Catalog

Plant Food

Each Dynamite® Plant Food “prill” is wrapped in a special resin coating that ensures continuous and precise release of the nutrients inside. There is an agent that allows water to penetrate and then release the nutrients into the surrounding soil.

The prills will not crack or break, which helps to prevent excessive nutrient release and minimizes nutrient runoff.

This special coating also ensures that the nutrients release evenly over the entire feeding period. Dynamite® prills contain major nutrients; nitrogen (N) , phosphorous (P) and potassium (K), plus micro-nutrients like iron, magnesium, manganese,

copper, zinc, boron and molybdenum (as noted in each respective product analysis).
