K GRO is a rapid, readily available potassium source designed to enhance plant potassium uptake.
Product Overview
Combining potassium and Yield Burst components, K GRO activates and enhances the plant’s natural defense mechanisms against abiotic stress. It delivers flexible foliar, in-furrow, or soil applications to support critical potassium uptake stages.
READILY AVAILABLE POTASSIUM
Provides potassium in a form that is rapidly absorbed into plant tissues
YIELD BURST TECHNOLOGY
Delivers performance fueled by crop enhancement components that activate the plant’s defense against abiotic stress to help optimize yield potential
ESSENTIAL PLANT FUNCTION SUPPORT
Activates key growth enzymes, impacting protein, starch, and ATP synthesis while adjusting pH and regulating water pressure in plant cells

Frequently asked questions
What is K GRO?
K GRO is a blend of potassium and enhancement components designed for use on all crops. It provides rapid, readily available potassium to support plant growth and stress protection. It is intended as a supplement for a standard fertility program and can be applied via foliar, in-furrow, or soil methods. K GRO is fueled by Yield Burst technology.
What is the guaranteed analysis of K GRO?
K GRO contains 20% soluble potash (K₂O), derived from potassium acetate.
Why is potassium important for plants?
Potassium is an activator of numerous plant growth enzymes, directly impacting protein, starch, and ATP synthesis. It helps adjust pH within plant cells, regulates water pressure in plant cells, and enhances carbon dioxide fixation during photosynthesis. Potassium deficiency symptoms appear as firing of the leaf margins (edges).
What are the features and benefits of K GRO?
- Rapid, Readily Available Potassium: K GRO is absorbed more rapidly into plant tissues than other potassium sources. It offers application flexibility at planting, side-dress, or foliar stages. Despite soil factors limiting potassium availability, K GRO ensures availability to the plant.
- Synergistic Dual Mode of Action for Stress Protection: Potassium and Yield Burst components work together to activate and enhance the plant’s natural defense mechanisms against abiotic stresses such as heat, frost, moisture issues, and hail. K GRO prepares crops to withstand these common stressors, leading to increased productivity.
What are the recommended use rates for K GRO?
- Soil Applied / 2×2 / Y-Drop: 1–12 quarts per acre
- In-Furrow: 1–2 quarts per acre
- Foliar: 1–4 quarts per acre; apply prior to nutrient deficiency symptoms
What crops can K GRO be applied to?
K GRO can be used on all crops that require potassium nutrition.
