Calcium plays a major role in the development of plant and fruit cell walls, especially during the cell division stage.
Calcium plays a key role in protecting the cell from toxins and in slowing the ageing process. Adequate fruit calcium assists longer storage life and helps stored fruit resist a range of breakdown conditions and rots. The Shuttle® system delivers calcium in a highly plant available complexed form. Nutri-Key Calcium Shuttle™ offers calcium in a balanced formulation which covers the full spectrum of “background nutrition”.

Home Garden Application: Dilute 30 mL per 9 L watering can and apply the diluted mix at a rate of 1 litre per square metre. Do not apply more than 6 times per year without demonstrated trace element requirement.
Stir well before use. Where higher water rates are required for good foliar coverage, do not exceed maximum product rate per hectare. Sensitive foliage or plants should be test sprayed prior to full scale application. Frequencies are a guideline only and can be adjusted according to farm practices and/or in conjunction with crop monitoring. Ensure suitable spray conditions (e.g. temperature, humidity, wind- speed), prior to foliar application. Compatibility and/or performance cannot be guaranteed when combined with other products. Jar test for compatibility and spray test on small area before wide-spread use
Store in a cool dry area out of direct sunlight. This product has been tested to store safely down to 5°C. Crystallisation or sedimentation may occur below 5°C. Do not pre-mix or store in diluted form. Seal lid/cap immediately after use
This product does not promote vegetative growth and should not be used on crops during any period in their growth cycle when vegetative growth is desired. Avoid spraying close to harvest if produce is susceptible to staining. Not compatible with soluble phosphate or sulfate based inputs. Note: Product in 1000 L tanks may weigh over 1 tonne. Forklift with 2 tonne lifting capacity is recommended.
