Huma Gro® NICKEL carbon-complexed with Micro Carbon Technology® is a critical source of nickel, which is necessary in the production of various tree, vine, and nut crops. Nickel is an irreplaceable constituent of the urease enzyme, essential in converting urea to ammonium (NH4 +). When Nickel is insufficient and urea is the major source of nitrogen, urea can accumulate in leaves to the point of plant toxicity—manifested as necrosis of leaf tips. BENEFITS Protects plants against urea toxicity Involved in the synthesis of chemicals (phytoalexins) that plants produce to defend themselves against environmental stresses Contributes to lignin production, a component of cell walls that strengthens plants and supports against environmental stresses Show more
