Directions for Use
MASTERCOTE 17-17-17 should be applied according to the soil or growing medium conditions and specific requirements of the crop. 17-17-17 provides
the crops with nutrients over the specified release period. The application rate suggested is intended as a guideline based on average conditions. Increase application rate by 20% if the average soil temperature is 60°F. Decrease application rate by 20% if the average soil temperature exceeds 85°F. Leach the
growing medium prior to planting. Do not mix Mastercote with the growing medium prior to steam sterilization.
