Max ProductsTrue solutions with polyaldocarbosate (PAC) carbohydrate technology
Some of the most effective foliar products on the market
Enhanced safety, performance and compatibility
Extremely safe to plant tissues
Highly tank compatible with nearly all agchems and foliar nutrients
Fully metabolized by plants as the nutrient ion is released from the carbohydrate super-complexing agent
Contain NO nitrogen, chlorides, sodium or sulfur (unless intentionally added to formulation) and contains only the super-complexed nutrient and the carbohydrate super-complexing agent: carbon, oxygen and hydrogen, the building blocks of all carbohydrates.
Used to increase nutrient levels in crops.
TruPhos Magnesium: 0-29-5, 4% Magnesium
TruPhos Meri-Stim: 0-23-3, 2.5% Calcium, 1% Zinc
TruPhos ProductsOrthophosphoric acid true solutions with major and/or micronutrients
Phosphorus in true solution with Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium and/or Zinc
Phosphorus is often the most limiting essential nutrient, and is very effective in foliar application if supplied in the orthophosphate form
Phosphorus must be in the form of orthophosphoric acid to be metabolized by higher plants
NutriAg’s superior chemistry enables us to combine orthophosphate with K, Ca, Mg and Zn in a true solution to maintain superior nutrient bioavailability
For foliar or soil application
Lite OrganicsOMRI approved organic true solutions and soluble powders
Some of the most effective organic foliar products on the market
Complexed with the same carbohydrates used in the PAC carbohydrate technology
Enhanced safety, performance and compatibility
Highly tank compatible with nearly all agchems and foliar nutrients
Used to increase nutrient levels in crops.

MAX Products: Super-complexing essential nutrients with small carbohydrates facilitates both foliar uptake and nutrient mobility
Foliar feeding takes advantage of the natural ability of the leaf to absorb substances. Many types of foliar-applied nutrients are very large and are ionically charged, entering only through the stomata on the underside of the leaf. Polyaldocarbosate (PAC) super-complexed nutrients are small with no ionic charge and can enter the leaves through both the open stomata and the ectodesmata (very small pores on the upper surface as well as the underside of the leaf)
Certain hexose sugars are the primary carbohydrate carriers in higher plants. These sugars have many responsibilities within the plant such as transferring phosphorous molecules during signal transduction that is induced by environmental stresses. In addition to that important role, these sugars also carry nutrient ions through phloem. After traveling through the phloem cells, the hexose carrier ions attach to receptors on the outer plant cell wall. These plant cell receptors are specifically designed to sense hexose carbohydrates. The receptors trigger the opening of channels allowing both the hexose and the associated ion to enter the cell. The hexose is then completely metabolized by the plant, and the ion is released and utilized for other cellular functions (e.g. cell wall for calcium).

Leaf cuticles of plants growing in high temperatures (23ºC to 30ºC) contain elevated levels of water and may produce relatively impermeable waxes.
When foliar feeds are applied at higher temperatures, uptake is increased.
The pH of the spray solution can influence uptake and penetration of the plant nutrients.
The wetting of the leaf surface or cuticle is important to foliar penetration.
The chemical nature and structure of the epicuticular waxes is more important to penetration than the amount of wax.
Surfactants or wetting agents reduce the surface tension of the solution, overcoming cuticular barriers to improve penetration.
Wetting agents improve leaf coverage and stomatal and cuticular penetration.
Higher light intensity stimulates cuticular development.
Greater foliar penetration is associated with higher light intensities.
Higher spray water volumes generally result in more uniform spray coverage and more effective foliar feeding.
Uniform application of foliar feeds is essential.
Foliar applications should wet the entire leaf canopy.
Ensure thorough coverage of new growth.
Age of the plant and stage of development influence nutrient absorption and effectiveness of the spray solution.
Aging leaves develop thick cuticles that can hamper absorption.
Factors Influencing the Penetration and Absorption of Foliar Feeds
Ectodesmata are pores with a diameter of less than 1 nm that are readily permeable to solutes such as urea (0.88 nm) and polyaldocarbosates (0.77 nm), but not larger molecules such as synthetic chelates.
