Slow-release fertilizer, also called “slowly available,” are a part of many turfgrass fertilization programs. They provide greater longevities of available N than quick-release sources, and are safer to use on turfgrass because of their lower burn potential. This group includes both coated and uncoated sources.
Goes the Distance. Leaves No Trace.
BioTHON™ Biodegradable Slow-Release Fertilizer (BSRF) ombines extended nutrient release technology with proven environmental sustainability. The patented* plant-derived, biodegradable coating naturally decomposes into COโ, water, and organic matter without leaving residue build up behind. BioTHON™ has been tested and proven to pass OECD 301F and ISO 14851, which are internationally recognized standardized tests of biodegradability. As the plant-based coating degrades, it protects the soil structure while delivering consistent, efficient nutrient release that minimizes leaching, denitrification, runoff, and volatilization. BioTHON™ provides an ESG aligned solution for turf managers, golf courses, and professional lawn care operators who are committed to providing consistent extended plant nutrition with long-term environmental sustainability.
BSRF: Biodegradable Slow-Release Fertilizer
Longevities: Up to 60 day release
Dependable & Steady Extended Nitrogen Release
XCU® Slow-Release Fertilizer pprovides gradual, steady nutritional uptake for up to 10 weeks of plant response. XCU® fertilizer has a high nitrogen (N) content (43%) with the addition of sulfur (4%), which provides added nutrition to the plant and can amend the soil. The value is more area can be covered per application using less fertilizer, which is more efficient and economical. Also, with less N lock-off more of the applied N is taken up and utilized by turfgrass or plants in the expected time frame. ๏ปฟ

45 day release
Consistent, Long Lasting Release of Nitrogen.
NUTRALENE® slow-release fertilizer is a methylene urea (MU) source with a guaranteed analysis of 40-0-0. The consistent, long-lasting release of nutrition for up to 16 weeks provides a cost-effective, low-maintenance solution to effectively increase root growth, which helps to improve turfgrass health.
MU: Methylene Urea
Longevities: 16 weeks of Available Nitrogen
Reliable & Long Lasting Nitrogen Release
NITROFORM® slow-release urea-formaldehyde (UF) fertilizer delivers a steady, balanced and dependable source of nitrogen (N) for up to 22 weeks or more. For more than 50 years, turf and ornamental professionals have relied on NITROFORM fertilizer, due to its exclusive release properties that make it one of the safest and longest-lasting slow-release sources of N available.
UF: Urea-Formaldehyde
Longevities: 22 weeks of Available Nitrogen
Quick Green-Up with a Steady Supply of Nitrogen.
NITAMIN® targeted foliar nitrogen (N) is a patented, liquid nutrient source. It is designed to make some of the N immediately available for quick green-up, while reserving the rest for a steady supply of N to the turfgrass. NITAMIN® foliar fertilizer has a high N content—yet a lower salt index than a straight urea solution—which adds a critical margin of performance, efficiency and safety.
