Instructions for use of Ferovit contain a description of the drug and the required dosage. The product is used as a growth stimulator and root fertilizer. Thanks to the presence of chelated iron complexes, Ferovit accelerates plant growth, which has a positive effect on both yield and immunity to diseases and pests.
What is the drug Ferovit used for?
Ferovit is a growth stimulant and fertilizer that is applied to the soil by the root method. According to the instructions, this drug is used for almost all plants:
- vegetable and flower crops;
- fruits and berries, including strawberries and strawberries;
- indoor and garden flowers;
- ornamental shrubs and trees;
- conifers.
Ferovit treatment is carried out for several purposes:
- Stimulating growth and development. The components of the product improve photosynthesis and cellular respiration, thereby stabilizing metabolism.
- Increasing the acclimatization of plants, which is especially important when transplanting seedlings from a greenhouse to open ground.
- Prevention of falling flowers and ovaries.
- Friendly flowering and increased yield.
- Increasing seed germination and survival rate.
- Strengthening resistance to adverse weather (anti-stress).
- Prevention of chlorosis (yellowing of leaves), as well as fungal diseases (powdery mildew, leaf rust) and pests (spider mites and others).
- Recovery from illnesses and insect infestations.
The use of Ferovit according to the instructions allows you to protect crops from major diseases and pests and increase their immunity to temperature changes, drought and other negative influences. Thanks to this, you can save not only on other fertilizers, but also on fungicides and insecticides.
Ferovit is a universal growth stimulator for any crops
Composition of Ferovit
The instructions for use indicate that Ferovit contains two active ingredients:
- Iron in organic complexes in a minimum amount of 75 g/l.
- Nitrogen minimum 40 g/l.
A distinctive feature is that iron ions are not present in the form of a mineral salt, but rather in an organic (chelate) complex. These chemical compounds are better absorbed by plant tissues. They gradually saturate the soil and pass into the root tissue, therefore they have a prolonged (long-lasting) effect. That is why for most crops, applying Ferovit three times per season (according to the instructions) is sufficient.

- Then bring to the desired volume and shake again.
- Place in a convenient container (watering can) for watering at the root.
How to use Ferovit
The use of Ferovit is allowed in accordance with the dosages specified in the instructions.

Consumption is the same as for regular watering.
Instructions for use of Ferovit for indoor plants
The use of Ferovit for indoor flowers, as well as for seedlings of any crops, follows the following instructions:
- Measure 1.5 ml of product per 1.5 liters of water.
- Water in the usual volume (for example, 150-200 ml per plant).
- Repeat watering weekly for a month.
Instructions for use of Ferovit for shrubs and trees
For watering shrubs and trees, the dosage is the same, but the consumption increases: approximately 1 bucket (10 l) or more per plant. Therefore, immediately measure 8 ml per 10 liters and water once every 2-3 weeks. Ferovit is used similarly for watering conifers.
Instructions for use of Ferovit for vegetable crops
Ferovit is successfully used in growing vegetables. Application algorithm:
- Standard consumption: 1.5 ml per 1.5 liters of water.
