1 of 15 products in this brand
NACHURS® K-thio liquid fertilizer is manufactured by utilizing quality raw materials including potassium hydroxide and elemental sulfur. Because of the raw materials used, NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer maximizes plant nutrient solubility and minimizes corrosion while providing good cold weather storage and plant safety when utilized as recommended. NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer can be applied as a side-dressed or fertigation application at recommended rates. Please consult your NACHURS representative or agronomist for specific placement and application guidelines. NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer can be deep-placed, side-dressed with 28% or 32% (may need additional water) nitrogen through a pivot, or by itself to provide potassium at the critical growth stage when soil uptake is limited.

Application Instructions
  • Deep-Placed: Deep place 1-3 gal/a NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer at planting time 3-4” to side and 3” deep with nitrogen (may need additional water) or other NACHURS N-P-K analysis.
  • Side-Dress: Side-dress 1-5 gal/a NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer 6-8” to side with nitrogen* or other NACHURS N-P-K analysis.
  • Irrigation: In irrigation, use 1-3 gallons of NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer with 28% nitrogen. Mix 1 gallon of NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer with 9 or 10 gallons of 28% nitrogen with no additional water needed. If more concentrated mixes are required, water should be added. This applies to deep-placed, sidedressed, and irrigation practices.
Mixing Instructions

NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer can mix with many crop production products.
• In a small container prior to full scale mixing, proportionally mix all the components to confirm compatibility.
• Thorough mixing of all blends is important.
• Temperature and storage time can influence the degree of success.
• Mix only the amount that will be immediately used.
• Long-term storage is not suggested.

NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer should NOT be applied in-furrow. NACHURS K-Thio® liquid fertilizer can be blended with other NACHURS N-P-K products for foliar application, but should NOT be applied by itself. Please consult with your authorized NACHURS distributor or agronomist for specific recommendations.

Nachurs® General Recommendations Premium Liquid Starter & Foliar Fertilizers

ALL FIELD CROPS OR DIRECT SEEDED CROPS: NACHURS® liquid fertilizer placed on or near the seed at planting time can stimulate early root growth and strengthen young plants. See the reverse side for recommended rates of NACHURS fertilizer. Consult with your authorized NACHURS distributor or agronomist for specific fertility recommendations.

EARLY APPLICATIONS FOR SEEDED CROPS: Applications of NACHURS liquid fertilizers early in the plant’s life can encourage development, increased growth, vigor, and yield potential. NACHURS liquid fertilizer may effectively be applied at the first to second true leaf stage directly to the small plant.

NACHURS LIQUID FERTILIZER FOR FOLIAR APPLICATIONS: • NACHURS liquid fertilizer is a highly soluble, low salt index formulation developed to supplement standard soil fertility practice. • NACHURS liquid fertilizer provides an additional source of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium during the growing season. • NACHURS liquid fertilizer is designed to be used in conjunction with soil and tissue tests and professional recommendations to manage the nutrient levels and nutrient balance within the crop. • NACHURS liquid fertilizer is in the form readily absorbed by plant tissue. In this form, nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium can be applied to the growing plant. • NACHURS liquid fertilizer can be applied with most herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides.

FOLIAR APPLICATION: Foliar feeding is one of the most efficient methods of supplying nutrients during critical growing stages. NACHURS foliar fertilizers provide available N-P-K and chelated micronutrients to make a good crop even better or it can supply a deficient, stressed crop the proper nutrients for a quick recovery. These products can also be customized and combined to ensure crop success.

NACHURS foliars are manufactured with the highest quality raw materials on the market today and includes only available, chelated micronutrients to maximize foliar absorption. NACHURS foliars can also be safely mixed with most insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides to help maximize yield potential (please follow proper mixing instructions).

For more specific foliar guidelines, consult with your authorized NACHURS distributor or agronomist for fertility recommendations.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

NACHURS liquid fertilizers can mix with many crop production products. Some non-100% EDTA chelates may not be compatible.
• In a small container prior to full scale mixing, proportionally mix all the components to confirm compatibility.
• Thorough mixing of all blends is important.
• Temperature and storage time can influence the degree of success.
• Mix only the amount that will be immediately used.
• Long-term storage is not suggested.

NACHURS programs offer the following foliar products: micronutrients, N-P-K fertilizers, and slow release nitrogen products. 

MIXING PROCEDURE:

  • Add 1/3 water to spray tank
  • Start sprayer agitation and maintain
  • Add pesticides as per label instructions
  •  Add 1/3 water
  •  Add NACHURS liquid fertilizer
  • Add NACHURS chelated micronutrients
  • Add remaining water volume and agitate before spraying

THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS MUST BE OBSERVED IN ORDER TO APPLY NACHURS LIQUID FERTILIZER FOR FOLIAR APPLICATIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PLANTS.

  • DO use NACHURS fertilizers under conditions of optimum plant growth including highest humidity, moderate temperature and adequate soil moisture
  • DO add, as a minimum, equal amounts of water. Do use sufficient water to provide thorough coverage.
  • DO consult with your local NACHURS distributor to determine pesticides which are compatible with NACHURS fertilizer.
  • DO add wettable or soluble powders, emulsifiables or flowables to water in the mix and wet, dissolve or disperse before adding NACHURS fertilizer.
  • DO consult your local NACHURS distributor for rate and application instructions.
  • DO use a small jar or container prior to full scale mixing to proportionally mix all the components to confirm compatibility.
  • DO NOT use when the crop is under stress from pests, heat or inadequate soil moisture.
  • DO NOT mix N-P-K with UAN 32% or 28%. • DO NOT apply by aircraft if surface wind is greater than five miles per hour to assure adequate crop coverage and droplet disposition.
  • DO NOT spray to run off. Do not spray to visible droplet coalescence. Do not allow concentrated spray mist to run off fruit or leaves.
  • DO NOT apply during the heat of the day. • DO NOT mix with calcium containing products unless the calcium is fully EDTA chelated.
  • DO NOT mix fertilizers with hard water. Mixing with hard water may cause clogging of lines due to the combining of calcium, magnesium and iron in the water with phosphate in the fertilizer.
