0-0-14 + 2% Manganese Acetate Liquid Fertilizer
As demonstrated by Mulder's chart, when potassium is applied, the plant's requirement for manganese also increases. To ensure the plant's requirement for manganese is met while reaping the benefits of external potassium application, we at CultivAce created K Ace+Mn. This convenient blend allows the grower to apply both nutrients in a single shot, saving time while preventing nutrient deficiency and yield loss.
Factors Affecting Manganese Availability:
High pH levels
High organic matter content
Heavy iron applications
High calcium applications
Significant zinc applications
Functions of Manganese as a Nutrient:
Assimilation of CO2 in Photosynthesis: Manganese aids in converting CO2 into carbohydrates, the primary energy source for plants.
Assimilation of Nitrate Nitrogen: Essential for nitrate nitrogen assimilation, supporting amino acid and protein synthesis.
Essential for Seed Formation: Critical for pollen viability, fertilization, and proper embryo development.
Electron Transport During Photosynthesis: Involved in electron transport, essential for producing energy-rich molecules like ATP and NADPH.
Incorporating manganese ensures plants have access to the necessary manganese for optimal growth, reproduction, and seed development.
Benefits of Manganese as a Nutrient
Assimilates CO2 in photosynthesis for enhanced energy production.
Facilitates nitrate nitrogen assimilation for optimal nitrogen metabolism.
Essential for seed formation and reproductive capacity.
Supports electron transport during photosynthesis for robust plant growth.

The Benefits of Potassium Acetate
Potassium is vital for various physiological processes, including increased sugar and carbohydrate production, efficient transport and storage, and optimal water transpiration. It is especially effective when applied at key growth stages, such as before flowering and during the development of fruits, nuts, pods, and vegetables.
Factors Affecting Potassium Availability:
High calcium applications
High nitrogen applications
Low soil moisture
Compacted soil
Low soil temperature
Dry soil environments
Functions of Potassium as a Nutrient:
Cell Wall Development: Crucial for robust cell wall development, enhancing plant structure and resilience.
Controls Opening and Closing of Leaf Stomata: Regulates stomatal function for efficient water regulation and gas exchange.
Water Transpiration: Influences the release of water vapor, aiding in cooling mechanisms and nutrient uptake.
Sugar & Carbohydrate Production, Transport, and Storage: Involved in synthesizing and transporting energy-rich compounds like glucose and starch.
Incorporating K-Ace into your fertilization program ensures the correction of potassium deficiency, promoting plant vigor, improving water regulation, and enhancing crop productivity.
Why Choose K Ace+Mn?
Combining the benefits of both potassium and manganese, K Ace+Mn ensures your plants receive the essential nutrients they need in a single application. This blend saves time and ensures balanced nutrient uptake, preventing deficiencies and optimizing plant health and yield potential—Trust CultivAce for high-quality solutions tailored to meet your crop's nutrient requirements.
