  1. 2. Reproductive growth, root metabolism, utilization of proteins.
  2. 4. Production of protein, activity and development of enzymes and vitamins, chlorophyll formation, root growth and seed production, resistance to the cold.
  3. 7. Essential for photosynthesis, helps activate many plant enzymes needed for growth.
  4. 8. Plant metabolism, high concentrations after rain, fertilization, and irrigation.
  5. 9. Build protein, fruit quality, and aids in reduction of diseases.
  6. 11. Use and regulation of nutrients, production of sugar and carbs, seed and fruit development.
  7. 13. Synthesis and transfer of energy, rapid plant growth, seed and fruit production, quality of leaf and forage crops.

  1. 1. Use of nitrogen, toxic in high quantities, increases with soil pH, can cause a disease called “molydenosis”.
  2. 3. Plant cell wall structure, normal transport and retention of other elements, provides strength.
  3. 5. Formation of oils, sugars and starches, encourages blooming and root growth, solar energy to chemical energy.
  4. 6. Essential for the transformation of carbs, regulates the consumption of sugars, and plant growth.
  5. 10. Works with enzyme systems to break down carbs and nitrogen metabolism.
  6. 12. Formation of chlorophyll.
