YaraTera Calcinit 25kg: Water-Soluble Calcium Nitrate Fertiliser YaraTera Calcinit is a fully water-soluble calcium nitrate fertiliser that supplies plants with readily available nitrogen and calcium in one product. Its analysis is 15.5% nitrogen (mostly nitrate-N, with a small ammonium fraction) and 19% calcium, and it dissolves quickly and completely with no residue. Made by Yara, the world's largest producer of calcium nitrate, it's a trusted choice for fertigation, foliar feeding and hydroponics across vegetables, fruit and ornamentals. Both nutrients do important work. The nitrate nitrogen is immediately available to the plant, isn't lost to the air (non-volatile) and isn't locked up by the soil, which gives fast, predictable growth. The calcium strengthens cell walls, which improves fruit firmness, quality and shelf life, and helps prevent common calcium-deficiency disorders like blossom end rot in tomatoes and capsicums, tip burn in lettuce and bitter pit in apples. Calcinit is also clean and easy to use. It's free of chlorine and sodium and virtually free of heavy metals, and unlike some nitrogen sources it doesn't acidify the soil. How to Use Calcinit dissolves readily in clean water for application through drip systems, sprinklers, centre pivots, spray units, or as a foliar spray or hydroponic feed. General guide rates: Fertigation: commonly around 0.2 to 0.4 g per litre of water, adjusted to crop and stage Hydroponics / nutrient solution: calcium is typically dosed in the 40 to 400 ppm range depending on the crop Foliar: apply as a dilute solution to correct calcium deficiency quickly Always follow the rate suited to your crop, system and growth stage. Important compatibility note: Calcinit can be mixed with most water-soluble fertilisers, but do not combine it in a concentrated stock solution with phosphates or sulphates, as this causes a precipitate. In two-tank fertigation systems, keep calcium nitrate in one tank (Tank A) and phosphate/sulphate fertilisers in the other (Tank B). Key Features & Benefits Fully water-soluble calcium nitrate: 15.5% N and 19% Ca Immediately available nitrate nitrogen for fast, predictable growth Calcium strengthens cell walls, improving fruit quality and shelf life Helps prevent blossom end rot, tip burn and bitter pit Dissolves cleanly with no residue, ideal for all fertigation systems Chlorine-free, sodium-free and virtually free of heavy metals Doesn't acidify the soil Available in 1kg, 2kg, 4kg and 25kg Frequently Asked Questions What is the analysis of YaraTera Calcinit?It contains 15.5% nitrogen (mostly nitrate-N with a small ammonium fraction) and 19% calcium. It's a fully water-soluble calcium nitrate. What is Calcinit used for?It supplies nitrogen and calcium through fertigation, foliar spraying and hydroponics. It's especially used to prevent and correct calcium-deficiency disorders like blossom end rot, and to improve fruit firmness, quality and shelf life. What is the dosage per litre for Calcinit?A common fertigation guide is around 0.2 to 0.4 g per litre of water, while hydroponic nutrient solutions target calcium in the 40 to 400 ppm range. Always adjust to your crop, water and growth stage. Can I mix Calcinit with other fertilisers?It's compatible with most water-soluble fertilisers, but not in a concentrated stock solution with phosphates or sulphates, which causes a precipitate. In two-tank systems, keep calcium nitrate separate from phosphate and sulphate feeds. Does Calcinit help with blossom end rot?Yes. Blossom end rot is caused by calcium deficiency, and Calcinit delivers readily available calcium to the plant, which helps prevent it in crops like tomatoes and capsicums. Does it acidify the soil?No. Unlike some nitrogen fertilisers, calcium nitrate is neutral to slightly alkaline and doesn't acidify the soil. What sizes does it come in?It's available in 1kg, 2kg, 4kg and 25kg, with the 25kg bag suited to commercial growers and larger operations.
