NPK 12‑12‑6 – 60-Day Controlled-Release Fertilizer
Balanced 60-Day Nutrient Release for Vegetables, Ornamentals, and Greenhouse Crops
NPK 12‑12‑6 – 60-Day Controlled-Release Fertilizer
Nitrogen (N) 12% – supports balanced vegetative growth and chlorophyll development.
Phosphorus Pentoxide (P₂O₅) 12% – promotes strong root establishment and early growth.
Potassium Oxide (K₂O) 6% – improves stress tolerance and overall plant vigor.
60-Day Controlled Release: Polymer coating ensures steady nutrient supply for ~60 days, reducing losses and reapplication needs.
NPK 12-6-6 Short-Term CR Fertilizer Detailed Specifications
Terafon® NPK 12‑12‑6 60-Day CR Fertilizer is a high-performance, polymer-coated controlled-release fertilizer designed for long-term nutrient supply over 60 days. Its balanced 12‑12‑6 NPK ratio ensures steady vegetative growth, strong root development, and improved crop quality for horticultural crops, vegetables, greenhouse plants, ornamentals, and nursery seedlings.
The advanced polymer coating provides predictable nutrient release, reducing losses from leaching, volatilization, and runoff, enhancing nutrient use efficiency, and minimizing the need for repeated applications. With one-time application per crop cycle, this fertilizer helps growers save labor and operational costs while maintaining consistent growth and yield quality.
