- Farmer 15-30-15 + TE is a high-phosphorus, water-soluble fertilizer with a formula of 15% nitrogen (N), 30% phosphorus (P₂O₅) and 15% potassium (K₂O). It is designed to support the plant during establishment and pre-flowering, when it needs a strong root system and higher uptake efficiency.
- The high phosphorus content activates root spread and stimulates the vital processes that prepare the plant for flowering. It also supports flowering and the start of fruit set when applied at the right time, while nitrogen and potassium keep growth balanced without excessive vegetative growth.
- It also contains micronutrients, magnesium and sulfur that improve photosynthetic efficiency and reduce deficiency symptoms, especially in calcareous soils. It dissolves quickly and is easy to use in irrigation systems and foliar sprays in open fields and greenhouses.
Key Features:
- High phosphorus (30%) activates roots and speeds up plant establishment after sowing or transplanting.
- Supports pre-flowering and early fruit set when used at the right time within a balanced fertilization program.
- Nitrogen and potassium provide nutritional balance without pushing excessive vegetative growth.
- Fortified with micronutrients, magnesium and sulfur that improve photosynthetic efficiency and reduce deficiency symptoms.
- Fully water-soluble and quickly absorbed for a fast, visible plant response.
- Suitable for all irrigation systems and foliar spraying in fields and greenhouses.

Directions for Use:
- Foliar spray: 1–2 g per liter of water (100–200 g per 100 L); spray leaves to full wetness and repeat every 10–14 days depending on plant condition.
- Fertigation (drip / sprinkler): 2–4 kg per hectare per irrigation.
- Adjust the rate according to plant age, growth stage and planting density.
Suitable Crops:
- Vegetables (tomato, cucumber, pepper, eggplant): After transplanting and before flowering to activate roots and prepare the plant for fruit set.
- Field crops (wheat, barley, maize): At early growth to strengthen roots and plant vigor.
- Fruit trees (date palm, citrus, other fruit): Before flowering to support fruit set and prepare the tree for production.
- Fodder (alfalfa, Rhodes grass): At establishment or after cutting to support regrowth and increase density.
- Greenhouses: At the start of the growing cycle and before flowering to keep nutrition balanced.
Orkida Tip:
- Use this fertilizer at the start of the season, after transplanting and before flowering for strong roots and better fruit set. Once fruit formation begins, switch to a high-potassium fertilizer to improve fruit size and quality.
Precautions:
- Do not mix with calcium nitrate or any calcium source in the same tank, to avoid precipitation.
- Avoid spraying in high heat or under direct sunlight.
- Do not exceed the recommended rates, to avoid plant stress.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight.
