Nutrex-M/F
Nutrient Extender/Microbial Inoculant
General Information
For use in liquid fertilizer formulations containing nitrogen and other nutrients. Used as directed, Nutrex-M/F will improve fertilizer efficiency and encourage biological proliferation, extending the availability of nutrients to plants and minimizing loss to the atmosphere and leaching.
A proprietary suspension containing:
USDA organic compliant microbes, fulvic acid, Ascophyllum Nodosum from brown seaweed, Dicyandiamide, N-(n-butyl) and Thiophosphoric Triamide (organic nitrogen compounds).

Nutrex-M/F
Technical Information
What is it?
Nutrex-M/F is a liquid suspension comprised of ingredients derived from organic nitrogen compounds and brown seaweed, fulvic acid derived from leonardite, and several strains of microbes derived from plants SoilSeeds.
How does it work?
When added to melted urea or ammonium sulfate, Nutrex-M/F:- extends nitrogen uptake by plant roots for up to two weeks, depending on rate, similar to much more expensive liquid slow release products.
- minimizes nitrogen volitization regardless of temperature (as low as 40 degrees).
- drastically reduces the chance of tip burn.
- widens the weather window for liquid applications.
- binds nitrogen to soil, extending availability for root uptake.
- minimizes nitrogen leaching.
- introduces or re-establishes a healthy microbial population in the soil for the cycling of organic and inorganic matter into nutrients for uptake by plants while improving soil aggregation.
- is a valuable tool in thatch reduction, proven by years of use by lawn care and golf course professionals.
- excellent tank mix partner for liquid root treatments, being compatible with other fertilizers and root rot fungicides.
- can be used year round in temperatures above freezing.
- is highly concentrated and much easier to handle than liquid slow release products, requiring less storage space. 2.5 gals. of Nutrex-M/F compares to 30 gals. of liquid slow release products.
- improves nutrient availability as the fulvic acid attracts beneficial metals, i.e. iron, copper, zinc etc., for uptake by roots.
The addition of fully chelated SuperTrace 6% iron will give rapid color response and supply beneficial micro-nutrients for increased soil and plant health.
What about cost?
Nutrex-M/F saves money.
Savings of over $2.00 1000/ sq. ft. are possible with Nutrex-M/F and urea or ammonium sulfate over a mix of urea and another popular liquid slow release product.
One company reported they saved enough money in two seasons to buy a new Isuzu NPR HD ($25,000!) after switching to Nutrex-M/F. Their techs liked it better because they didn’t have to handle gallons and gallons of the other heavy, sticky product, and they got the same, or better, nitrogen release, plus the added fulvic acid and microbes gave them a true bio-fertilizer. When the techs are happy, everybody’s happy.
