What Is Di Grow Green

Di Grow Green is a liquid foliar fertilizer formulated with macro and micronutrients, amino acids, and plant growth promoters. The 1 litre pack is designed for smallholder and commercial farmers in Kenya who need a concentrated, water-soluble nutrient supplement for crops during critical growth stages.

It is not a pesticide, herbicide, or seed treatment. It supplements soil-applied fertilizers by delivering nutrients directly to leaves where uptake can be faster during periods of high demand or root stress.

Label-Declared Composition

Typical guaranteed analysis (verify on your specific bottle label):

  • Nitrogen (N): 15%
  • Phosphorus (P₂O₅): 15%
  • Potassium (K₂O): 15%
  • Magnesium (MgO): 2%
  • Boron (B): 0.1%
  • Copper (Cu): 0.01%
  • Iron (Fe): 0.1%
  • Manganese (Mn): 0.05%
  • Molybdenum (Mo): 0.001%
  • Zinc (Zn): 0.05%
  • Amino acids and seaweed extract: present as co-formulants

Exact percentages vary by batch. Always read the label on the container you purchase.

Crops Commonly Treated in Kenya

Farmers and agronomists report use on:

  • Maize — especially at knee-high and tasseling stages
  • Beans and peas — flowering and pod-filling
  • Tomatoes, capsicum, kale (sukuma wiki), cabbage — after transplanting and during head formation
  • Onions — bulb initiation
  • Coffee and tea — after pruning and during flush
  • Avocado, mango, citrus — fruit set and sizing
  • French beans, snow peas — export crop quality

Compatibility with other foliar products should be jar-tested before tank-mixing.

Dilution and Application Rates

Standard label recommendation:

Crop StageDilution RateWater Volume per Acre
Vegetative / early growth50–100 ml per 20 L knapsack200–400 L
Flowering / fruiting100–150 ml per 20 L knapsack200–400 L

One 1 litre bottle treats approximately 7–20 acres depending on rate. Use clean water. Apply early morning or late afternoon to reduce evaporation and leaf scorch risk. Avoid spraying during hot midday hours or when rain is expected within 4 hours.

Timing and Frequency

  • First application: 2–3 weeks after transplanting or emergence
  • Repeat every 14–21 days during active growth
  • Maximum 4–6 applications per season per crop
  • Stop 14 days before harvest for food crops

Do not exceed label rates. Higher concentrations can cause leaf burn, especially on tender vegetables.

Mixing and Handling

  1. Fill spray tank half-full with water
  2. Add Di Grow Green, agitate
  3. If tank-mixing, add pesticides after Di Grow Green is fully dispersed; jar-test first
  4. Top up to final volume
  5. Use within 6 hours of mixing
  6. Triple-rinse empty containers; dispose per NEMA guidelines

Wear gloves, mask, and eye protection during mixing and spraying. Observe re-entry intervals if tank-mixed with pesticides.

Expected Outcomes and Limitations

When used as part of a complete nutrient program (soil test-based basal fertilizer + foliar top-ups), farmers report:

  • Improved leaf colour and vigour within 5–7 days
  • Better flower retention and fruit set under moisture stress
  • Reduced micronutrient deficiency symptoms (e.g., zinc in maize, boron in beans)

Di Grow Green does not replace basal fertilizers. It cannot correct severe soil pH problems, nematode damage, or disease. It is a supplement, not a rescue cure.

Storage and Shelf Life

  • Store in original container, tightly closed, under shade (5–30°C)
  • Keep away from food, feed, and children
  • Shelf life: typically 2 years from manufacture date — check batch label
  • Do not freeze; if frozen, thaw completely and shake well before use

Where to Buy in Kenya

Di Grow Green 1 Litre is stocked by agro-dealers in major towns and through Dynapharm's distribution network. Verify product authenticity by checking batch number and hologram on the label. Counterfeit foliar fertilizers are common; purchase from known outlets.

Record-Keeping for Traceability

For export crops (French beans, avocado, herbs), maintain spray records:

  • Date, time, field/block
  • Crop and growth stage
  • Rate used (ml/20 L)
  • Weather conditions
  • Operator name
  • Pre-harvest interval observed

These records support GlobalG.A.P. and KS 1758 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I mix Di Grow Green with foliar fungicides? Jar-test first. Many growers tank-mix with compatible fungicides, but high pH or certain surfactants can cause precipitation.

Is it organic certified? No. It contains synthetic mineral salts. It is not approved for certified organic production under East African Organic Product Standard.

What if it rains 2 hours after spraying? Re-application may be needed if heavy rain occurred before leaf absorption (typically 3–4 hours). Light drizzle usually not a problem.

Can I use it on seedlings in nursery? Yes, at half rate (25–50 ml/20 L) after true leaves appear. Test on a few trays first.
