Additional Information
Provide plants with balanced, sustained nutrition using PolyCote Plus GP Fertiliser, a polymer-coated controlled-release compound fertiliser developed for general-purpose horticultural and nursery applications.
Formulated with essential nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and trace elements, PolyCote Plus GP provides a gradual nutrient supply to support healthy plant growth, strong stems and consistent plant development.
The fertiliser features a tough, flexible biodegradable polymer coating that regulates nutrient release over an approximate six-month period. This coating technology is designed to perform under varying temperatures and osmotic pressure conditions, helping provide dependable nutrient delivery throughout the growing cycle.
Unlike conventional fertilisers that release nutrients rapidly after application, PolyCote Plus GP gradually releases nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and essential trace elements in proportions closely aligned with their ratios within the granule. This supports more uniform nutrient availability and consistent plant growth.
The general-purpose formulation is suitable for a broad range of horticultural applications, including commercial nursery production, container-grown plants, ornamental plants and landscape plant establishment.
Its polymer coating technology provides an alternative to traditional wax-coated controlled-release fertilisers, with a durable and flexible coating designed for consistent nutrient delivery.
With a six-month controlled-release period, PolyCote Plus GP is particularly useful for medium-term nursery production cycles and growing programs where sustained nutrient availability and reduced fertiliser application frequency are desirable.
Supplied in a 20kg bag, PolyCote Plus GP Fertiliser is well suited to commercial nurseries, horticulturists, landscapers and professional growers seeking reliable controlled-release plant nutrition.

Controlled-Release Technology
PolyCote Plus GP uses a biodegradable polymer coating designed to regulate the gradual release of nutrients into the growing medium.
The tough, flexible coating is designed to maintain controlled nutrient delivery under varying temperature conditions and osmotic pressures, helping provide a consistent supply of essential nutrients throughout the release period.
The coating allows nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and trace elements to be released in proportions closely aligned with their ratios within the fertiliser granule, supporting balanced nutrient availability.
Release Period: Approximately 6 months.
Important: The stated release period is determined under laboratory conditions at 25°C. Actual nutrient release and longevity may vary depending on average soil or growing-medium temperatures and environmental conditions.

Application Information
Apply PolyCote Plus GP Fertiliser according to the manufacturer's recommended application rates for the relevant plant species, container size and growing conditions.
For best results, select an appropriate application rate based on plant nutrient requirements, growing-medium characteristics and the intended production cycle.
Important: PolyCote Plus GP contains a higher phosphorus concentration than the PolyCote Plus Native formulation. For phosphorus-sensitive plants, consider the PolyCote Plus Native range.
Nutrient release is temperature-dependent. The nominal six-month release period is based on laboratory testing at 25°C and may vary under actual growing conditions.
Support healthy, consistent plant growth with PolyCote Plus GP Fertiliser – a general-purpose, six-month controlled-release fertiliser designed to provide dependable nutrition for commercial nurseries, landscaping and professional horticultural applications.
