FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Click on each question to see the answer.

What makes Nitroform 39-0-0 "non-burning"?

Nitroform's non-burning properties come from its unique slow-release formulation:

Key Non-Burning Features:
  • Polymer-coated urea prevents salt concentration
  • Gradual release avoids nitrogen spike
  • Formaldehyde-urea combination stabilizes release
  • Lower osmotic potential than quick-release fertilizers
  • Microbial release matches plant uptake rate

How it works:

  • The polymer coating acts as a barrier, controlling water penetration
  • Nitrogen releases slowly as coating breaks down
  • Soil microorganisms further regulate release rate
  • Plants receive steady nutrition without salt stress

This makes Nitroform safe even for:

  • Newly planted seedlings
  • Sensitive ornamentals
  • Shallow-rooted plants
  • Container plants
  • Application during hot weather
How long does Nitroform last in the soil?

Nitroform provides nitrogen for 8-12 weeks per application, depending on several factors:

Factors Affecting Release Rate:

  • Temperature: Warmer soils = faster release
  • Moisture: Adequate water needed for release
  • Microbial Activity: More active in warm, moist conditions
  • Soil pH: Optimal at pH 6.0-7.0
  • Particle Size: Mini-size particles release uniformly

Typical Release Pattern:

Week % Released Plant Stage
1-2 10-15% Initial growth
3-6 40-50% Active growth
7-10 25-30% Sustained feeding
11-12 10-15% Final release
Pro Tip: In cool climates or early spring, expect 10-12 weeks. In warm summer conditions, plan for 8-10 weeks between applications.
When should I apply Nitroform to my lawn and garden?

Optimal Application Timing:

Lawns:

  • Cool-season grasses: Early spring (April) and early fall (September)
  • Warm-season grasses: Late spring (May) and mid-summer (July)
  • Avoid: Late fall applications that promote tender growth

Vegetables:

  • At planting: Work into soil before transplanting
  • Side dress: 3-4 weeks after planting
  • Heavy feeders: Additional application mid-season

Fruit Trees:

  • Early spring: As buds begin to swell
  • Post-bloom: After fruit set
  • Summer: Optional for heavy crop loads
  • Avoid: Late summer/fall on young trees

General Guidelines:

  • Apply when soil temperature is above 55°F
  • Water thoroughly after application
  • Allow 8-12 weeks between applications
  • Reduce rates by 25% in drought conditions
Can I mix Nitroform with other fertilizers?

Yes! Nitroform's uniform, dust-free particles blend well with other fertilizers:

Compatible Fertilizers:

  • Phosphorus sources (MAP, DAP, TSP)
  • Potassium sources (MOP, SOP)
  • Micronutrient blends
  • Organic fertilizers
  • Other slow-release products

Popular Blend Ratios:

Purpose Nitroform Other Components
Balanced Lawn 50% 25% P source + 25% K source
Vegetable Garden 40% 30% P + 30% K
Tree Food 60% 20% P + 20% micros

Mixing Tips:

  • Use similar particle sizes for even distribution
  • Mix thoroughly before application
  • Store blends in dry conditions
  • Apply within 30 days of mixing
Note: Nitroform's slow-release properties complement quick-release P and K sources perfectly, providing both immediate and long-term nutrition.
