Muriate of Potash 0-0-60 MOP Fertilizer (1 Lb.)

Description

Muriate of potash, also known as potassium chloride contains 60% potash. Potash is essential for plant growth and quality. It plays a vital role in the production of proteins and sugars. It also protects against draught by maintaining plants water content which in turn is a benefit for photosynthesis as leaves maintain their shape and vigor. Potassium stimulates the growth of strong stems and gives the plant disease resistance by promoting thickness of the outer cell walls. Adequate potassium can reduce moisture loss from growing plants, thereby giving some drought resistance. Potassium improves colour, flavour and storing quality of fruit and vegetables. MOP is the most concentrated form of potassium and typically the most cost effective.
