NuGroOrganic liquid fertiliser for all edible crops
NuGro is the leading organic fertiliser in many areas of Australia, America and the UK. NuGro is now available to growers in Europe
NuGro is quick, easy and inexpensive to apply with conventional spraying equipment
NuGro foliar fertiliser spreads well and sticks to foliage, resisting wash-off to provide maximum uptake and efficacy
NuGro promotes healthy, hardy growth andimproves resistance to pests and diseases
NuGro helps increase crop yield and quality. Fruit BRIX levels are increased
NuGro aids recovery from weather stress and stimulates growth when root activity is poor.
An exceptionally effective and easy to apply foliar fertiliserfor organic and conventionally grown crops, NuGro is veryefficient and can significantly reduce overall fertiliser costs
NuGro Organic Foliar Fertilisers
A unique combination of nutrients, amino a
NUGRO 8-8-7 ORGANIC FERTILISER IS A FINELY-GROUND FISHMEAL SUSPENSION THATPROVIDES A UNIQUE COMBINATION OFNUTRIENTS, AMINO ACIDS AND PROTEINS. THEMICRONISED FISHMEAL IS COMBINED WITHAPPROVED ADDITIVES, WHICH ARE ALSOMICRONISED AND FILTERED TO PRODUCE A FINECOLLOIDAL SUSPENSION, CAPABLE OF BEINGSPRAYED THROUGH CONVENTIONAL SPRAYEQUIPMENT OR APPLIED THROUGH DRIPIRRIGATION SYSTEMS.
Derived from fish blood and bone, NuGro 8-8-7 provides a balancedNPK together with all the key secondary and trace elements neededfor healthy plant growth. The calcium included in NuGro is especiallyvaluable in reducing calcium deficiency in many fruits when applieddirectly to developing fruitlets and foliage.
NuGro 8-8-7 also contains two naturally occurring growth aids –Gibberellins (GA) and Triacontanal (Tria). GA aids the growth of cellsand stimulates the plant to take up and use the available nutrients toimprove the quality of the fruit.
Tria, a fatty acid and plant growth hormone, has beneficial effects onstimulating photosynthesis, improving cell division and promoting thedevelopment of carbohydrates (sugars and energy) to benefit plantgrowth and crop yields. Tria also helps with stress recovery afteradverse weather conditions.
This combination provides an incredibly powerful growth medium.Every drop of NuGro contains exactly the same mix of all the majorand minor nutrients, plus organic molecules essential for healthygrowth, meaning each plant receives exactly the same mixture ofnutrients. Uniform application of nutrients, organic components andtrace elements on this scale is virtually impossible to achieve with bulksolid fertilisers.
Other formulations
NuGro 7-2-2, 6-2-4 and 4-2-6 are organic fertilisers formulatedentirely from plant extracts and offer similar organic benefits to thosedescribed above. NuGro 6-2-4 also provides calcium benefits todeveloping fruitlets.

NuGro application rates for foliar application
NUGRO IS DELIVERED IN A CONCENTRATEDFORM THAT IS DILUTED WITH WATER AT THE TIME OF APPLICATION. NUGRO ACTS AS ASURFACTANT, BREAKING DOWN THE SURFACETENSION OF WATER ON FOLIAGE FOR FULLCOVERAGE ACROSS THE TOTAL LEAF SURFACEPROVIDING EXCELLENT UPTAKE. NUGRO IS ALSOAN ORGANIC ‘GLUE’ THAT HELPS IT STICK TO THELEAF SURFACE THUS REDUCING WASH-OFFFROM RAIN OR IRRIGATION.
APPLICATION GUIDANCE
Shake well before use
Always add NuGro to the spray tank as the last ingredient
During periods of hot weather, apply NuGro in the morning or evening
Always store NuGro in its original packaging, out of reach of children
Keep away from food, drink and animals
Avoid contact with skin and eyes
Wash hands after applications
Do not store below 5°C
Do not exceed the appropriate doses
NuGro
Dilution rate is not critical as NuGro is very “crop-safe”. Dilute in sufficient water to ensure even coverage to the crop.Recommended water volume is 150 litres to 1500 litres per Ha.

NuGro for soil application throughtrickle irrigation (all crops)NuGro can be applied to the soil through irrigation systemsto give the benefit of organic nutrients through the roots.Regular application of NuGro will help increase biologicalactivity in the soil to improve soil structure and providebetter aeration and drainage. A healthy and plentiful supply
EARTHWORMSThere is good evidence to show that high earthworm populations increase the moisture holding capacity of soil by as much as 17% in the top30cm of soil. Increased earthworm activity helps the soil to hold more moisture during dry spells and to drain more effectively during wetperiods. Worms thrive on the organic content of NuGro fish blood and bone and its regular application has been shown to encourage thedevelopment of high earthworm populations.
