Chelated Zinc EDTA Fertilizer 14% | Essential Micronutrient | Greenway Biotech®

Chelated Zinc EDTA Fertilizer (14% Zinc)

Unlock optimal plant growth with our premium Chelated Zinc EDTA Fertilizer. This professional-grade formula delivers 14% chelated zinc for maximum bioavailability, preventing stunted growth and enhancing enzyme function. Essential for protein synthesis, hormone regulation, and stress resistance in all crops.

🌱 Prevents Stunted Growth

14% chelated zinc corrects deficiencies that cause shortened internodes and small, distorted leaves.

⚡ Activates Critical Enzymes

Essential for 300+ enzyme systems involved in protein synthesis and growth regulation.

💧 Superior Bioavailability

EDTA chelation ensures zinc remains available in soils up to pH 7.0, preventing tie-up.

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS
  • 14% Chelated Zinc: High concentration for efficient correction with lower application rates
  • EDTA Chelation Technology: Protects zinc from soil reactions, maintaining availability in pH 4.0-7.0
  • Essential for Protein Synthesis: Critical component in protein formation and growth hormones
  • Enhances Stress Tolerance: Improves drought, cold, and disease resistance
  • Prevents Leaf Bronzing: Corrects characteristic bronze spotting and interveinal chlorosis
  • Improves Fruit Set: Essential for pollen function and seed development
  • Multiple Application Methods: Works in soil, foliar, hydroponic, and fertigation systems
  • Professional Quality: Used by commercial growers for precision micronutrient management
DERIVED FROM

Zinc Ethylenediaminetetraacetate (Zn-EDTA)

Premium chelated form provides superior stability and plant availability compared to zinc sulfate.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the signs of zinc deficiency in plants?

Zinc deficiency presents distinct symptoms that appear on new growth first (zinc is immobile in plants):

  • Interveinal chlorosis: Yellowing between leaf veins on young leaves
  • Small, narrow leaves: Known as "little leaf" in trees
  • Shortened internodes: Creates rosette appearance with clustered leaves
  • Bronze or brown spots: Necrotic spots on leaves, especially in beans
  • Delayed maturity: Slow growth and poor fruit/seed development
  • White bud in corn: Young leaves emerge white or pale yellow

Most susceptible crops: Corn, rice, citrus, pecans, beans, and grapes. Deficiency is common in high pH soils (above 7.0), sandy soils, high phosphorus soils, and cool, wet conditions.

How does chelated zinc EDTA compare to zinc sulfate?

Chelated zinc EDTA offers significant advantages over zinc sulfate:

  • pH stability: Remains available up to pH 7.0 (zinc sulfate precipitates above pH 5.5)
  • 5-10x more efficient: Lower application rates needed for same effect
  • No soil tie-up: Protected from phosphate and carbonate reactions
  • Compatible mixing: Can be tank-mixed with most fertilizers and pesticides
  • Longer residual: Stays available for extended periods
  • Less phytotoxic: Gentler on plant tissues in foliar applications

While zinc sulfate is cheaper per pound, the superior efficiency of chelated zinc often makes it more economical per acre treated.

When and how should I apply zinc fertilizer?

Timing considerations:

  • Preventive: Apply pre-plant or at planting for susceptible crops
  • Corrective: Apply immediately when deficiency symptoms appear
  • Annual crops: Single application at planting usually sufficient
  • Perennials: Apply in early spring before bud break

Application methods (ranked by effectiveness):

  1. Banded soil application: Most efficient, place 2-3" beside and below seed
  2. Foliar spray: Fast correction, apply to young leaves
  3. Broadcast soil: Less efficient, requires higher rates
  4. Seed treatment: Preventive for cereals

Best practices:

  • Test soil - critical level is 0.5-1.0 ppm DTPA-extractable Zn
  • Avoid over-liming which induces deficiency
  • Don't overapply - zinc can be toxic at high levels
  • Monitor tissue levels: 20-60 ppm is optimal for most crops
