Biota Copper
Biota Copper is a concentrated single copper fertiliser, based on lignosulphonic acid and part of our liquid organic single fertilizer line. Due to the unique production process, the nutrients are 100% present in solution and can therefore be taken up directly by the plant. The product is fully made from plant-based materials and certified for use in organic agri- and horticulture. The ingredients are partly sourced from agricultural waste. Due to the natural origin the nutrient content may vary.
Copper is an essential element in photosynthesis. In the absence of copper, young leaves will curl, hang limp and get a faint blue glow. This is easily prevented by applying a proper fertilization scheme, but can also be corrected by adding extra copper. The correct application of Biota Copper ensures an increased resistance of the plant. This is due to optimum formation of lignin, which ensures a watertight cell wall.
