Product Specs
- 18-6-8 2-Stage: An 18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote® fertilizer with a quicker release and 2 release spikes during a 360 day period.
- 100% Controlled Release Homogenous Fertilizer: The fertilizer is completely controlled release and has a consistent composition.
- Coating Technology Provides Predictable Release: The special resin coating and release controlling agent create molecular passageways for controlled nutrient release.
- Coating Designed to Release in 360 Days: The fertilizer is designed to release nutrients steadily over a 360 day period.
- Total Package of N P K and Micros in Every Prill: The fertilizer contains a complete nutritional package of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and micronutrients in every granule.
- Water Soluble Micro Nutrients in Every Prill: The micronutrients in the fertilizer are water soluble for easy uptake by plants.
- High Percentage of Nitrate Nitrogen: The fertilizer has a high percentage of nitrate nitrogen, which is beneficial for plant growth.
- Consistent and Dependable Performance: Nutricote® has been proven to consistently and dependably release nutrients over the course of 30 years.
- Will Not Flash Release: The controlled release design of Nutricote® prevents sudden, excessive nutrient release.
- Matches Longevity to Crop Cycle: The release period of the fertilizer is aligned with the typical growth cycle of crops.
- Uniform Crop Quality in Size & Color: Nutricote® promotes uniform crop growth and appearance.
- Maximizes Nutrient Uptake: The controlled release of nutrients by Nutricote® allows plants to efficiently absorb the nutrients they need.
- No Urea/NH4 Conversion: Nutricote® does not convert urea or ammonium (NH4) to nitrate, reducing the potential for nutrient burn.

Product Features
- An 18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote® is manufactured by coating nitrate compound fertilizers with a special resin.
- The duration of releasing nutrients is controlled by the composition of the resin and the quantity of a special "chemical release agent" added to the resin.
- The composition of Nutricote's resin, and the release controlling agent added to it, produce molecular passageways in the coated resin in a maze-like structure.
- Nutricote® is the gold standard in the world of controlled release fertilizers with over thirty years of proven results.
- Nutricote® Total is a total nutritional package with micronutrients, 100% coated and over 30 years of proven results.
- An 18-6-8 360 2-Stage will start to releasing a bit quicker and experience 2 release spikes during a 360 day period.
- High percentage of nitrate nitrogen and reduces burn potential.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the composition of 18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote®?
18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote® is manufactured by coating nitrate compound fertilizers with a special resin. The duration of releasing nutrients is controlled by the composition of the resin and the quantity of a special “chemical release agent” added to the resin.
2. How does Nutricote® release nutrients?
The composition of Nutricote’s resin, and the release controlling agent added to it, produce molecular passageways in the coated resin in a maze-like structure. When Nutricote® is applied to the soil, the water in the soil enters the granule through the passageways and dissolves the nutrients. The nutrient solution will then be control-released steadily through the same passageways.
3. How is Nutricote® different from other slow release fertilizers?
Other slow release fertilizers depend on the thickness of their resin coating to control the release period. This results in a wide variation in particle size and a dependence on the physical properties of the granule for consistent release. Nutricote®, on the other hand, uses a special release agent that has resulted in a dramatic technological improvement in the consistency and precision of nutrient release.
4. What are the benefits of using 18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote®?
18-6-8 2-Stage Nutricote® is considered the gold standard in the world of controlled release fertilizers. It offers a total nutritional package with micronutrients, consistent and dependable performance, water-soluble micro nutrients in every prill, and a high percentage of nitrate nitrogen. It also maximizes nutrient uptake, reduces burn potential, and matches longevity to the crop cycle. Additionally, it ensures uniform crop quality in size and color.
