Chelated Formulation and Micronutrient Synergy
In traditional inorganic salt sprays, metallic trace elements often precipitate into insoluble hydroxides on leaf surfaces or inside alkaline spray water.
Micronix utilizes synthetic organic chelating agents (EDTA) that hold metal cations in a protective ring, ensuring complete water solubility and rapid stomatal absorption.
- Zinc (Zn): Drives plant auxin (IAA) synthesis, enzyme activation, and internodal stem elongation.
- Iron (Fe) & Manganese (Mn): Essential catalysts for chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthetic electron transport.
- Boron (B): Critical for pollen viability, flower fertilization, cell wall elasticity, and sugar translocation.
- Copper (Cu) & Molybdenum (Mo): Support nitrogen metabolism, nitrate reduction, and disease resistance enzyme systems.
- 100% water solubility: Dissolves cleanly without leaving insoluble sediment that clogs fine spray nozzles.
Foliar Spray Application and Best Practices
Micronix is formulated for foliar spray during active vegetative growth, pre-flowering, and early fruit formation.
Spraying during early morning or late afternoon hours ensures steady cuticle penetration without rapid droplet evaporation.
- Dilution rate: Dissolve 1.5 to 2.5 grams per liter of clean water (0.15% to 0.25% concentration) and spray uniformly.
- Target crops: Highly effective for cotton, paddy, chillies, tomatoes, citrus, grapes, bananas, and oilseeds.
- Tank compatibility: Compatible with most neutral agrochemicals and water-soluble fertilizers; verify via jar test before mixing.
- Storage: Keep container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Common questions
What is the advantage of chelated micronutrients in Micronix?
Chelation prevents trace minerals from reacting with spray water salts, keeping nutrients 100% soluble and bioavailable for rapid leaf uptake.
When is the best time to spray Micronix on crops?
The best stages are during active vegetative branching, pre-flowering, and early fruit enlargement when micronutrient demand peaks.
Can Micronix be mixed with regular insecticides and fungicides?
Yes, it is generally compatible with most standard crop protection sprays, though a preliminary jar test is always recommended.
