Yates Iron Chelate
New fast acting liquid that corrects iron deficiency.
What is Iron Deficiency
Iron deficiency is a plant disorder which can sometimes be confused with manganese deficiency. Iron is needed to produce chlorophyll in plants, hence its deficiency causes discolouration of leaves.
Symptoms
Leaves turning yellow or brown in the margins between the veins which may remain green, while young leaves may appear to be bleached.
How to Protect your plants
Iron deficiency can be caused by a lack of nutrients in your soil caused by excessive watering or long periods of rain fall. Most commonly it is caused by high soil pH causing iron to become unavailable to the plant. Test soil pH if the problem is persistent and apply sulphur to lower the soil pH.
Brown Patch
Brown Patch is caused by a fungus and usually occurs in late spring, summer and autumn when the weather is warm and humid.
Sunburn
Sunburn may affect plants that are exposed to very hot weather.
