Liquid Boron contains low amounts around 2% to 4%
Symptoms of deficient Boron
1. Abnormal growing parts
2. Leaves are retarded with thicker and wrinkled.
3. Are a darker color.
4. Plant is brittle because of poor cell wall formation.
5. With grasses you will see spiral or twisted leaves.
6. Broad leaf plants will have their tips malformed, and they need more Boron than what grasses require.
How Boron will interacts with other elements in the soil and plants.
1. For proper plant growth Calcium and Boron must be in balance. When they are
not in balance the plant will not process properly.
2. Phosphorus will not process correctly into cells with low quantity of Boron.
Plants that are low in Boron will not adsorb Phosphorus properly at the roots.
3. Too high levels of Nitrogen and Potassium will decrease the Calcium/Boron
ration in plants.
4. Conflicting with the above mentioned- watermelon requires high Calcium and
regular amount of Boron.
Crops that need high Boron levels are:
