Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 is a concentrated water-soluble fertilizer specially formulated to supply balanced nutrition to crops during their peak growth stages. This NPK concentrate is fortified with Calcium, Magnesium, and Boron, making it a complete nutrient solution for improving crop health, fruit development, and overall yield quality. With a composition of 6% Total Nitrogen, 18% Water Soluble Potassium, and no phosphorus, this fertilizer is designed for crops that need a strong potassium boost along with secondary and micronutrients.
The formulation is made for rapid foliar absorption and high nutrient mobility within the plant. It enhances photosynthesis, improves sugar and starch translocation, and supports water regulation inside the plant. This makes it highly effective for crops like cotton, cereals, citrus, pomegranate, corn, grapes, strawberries, and vegetables. The product is suitable for both foliar spray and drip application, giving farmers flexible options based on their irrigation system and crop stage.
Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 also helps plants withstand environmental stress such as drought and frost. By improving fruit size, shape, color, and taste, it directly contributes to better market value of the produce. The presence of Calcium strengthens cell walls, Magnesium supports chlorophyll formation, and Boron aids in flower and fruit setting. Together, these nutrients work to improve both the quantity and quality of the harvest.

- Helps plants tolerate drought and frost stress through better water regulation
- Supports photosynthesis and sugar translocation for healthier, more vigorous plants
- Suitable for both foliar spray and drip application, offering flexible usage options
How It Works
Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 works by delivering essential nutrients directly to the plant through rapid foliar absorption. When applied as a foliar spray, the nutrients are quickly taken up through the leaf surface and move within the plant to where they are needed most. The high water-soluble potassium content plays a central role in photosynthesis, helping the plant convert sunlight into energy more efficiently.
Potassium also acts as a regulator of water movement inside the plant through a process called osmo-regulation. This helps the plant maintain proper water balance, which is especially important during dry spells or cold conditions. The enhanced translocation of sugars and starch within the plant ensures that energy produced in the leaves reaches the fruits, grains, or tubers, improving their size and quality.
The added Calcium strengthens cell walls, making fruits firmer and less prone to damage. Magnesium is a core component of chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for photosynthesis, so it directly supports the plant's food-making process. Boron helps in flower formation, pollen germination, and fruit setting, which are critical for achieving good yields. Together, these nutrients create a balanced feeding system that supports the plant through its most demanding growth phases.

Recommended Dosage & Application
The dosage of Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 depends on the method of application. The product is designed for two main application methods:
| Application Method | Dosage |
|---|---|
| Foliar Spray | 1.0 ml per litre of water |
| Drip Application | 500 ml per acre |
For foliar spray, mix 1.0 ml of the product in 1 litre of clean water and spray evenly on the crop canopy. For drip application, use 500 ml per acre through the drip irrigation system. The product is recommended during the peak potassium demand period of the crop, which is typically during fruit development, grain filling, or boll formation stages.
When to Use
Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 is best applied during the peak potassium demand period of the crop. This is the stage when the plant needs the highest amount of potassium to support fruit development, grain filling, or boll formation. For most crops, this falls during the reproductive and maturity stages.
- Apply during fruit development stage for fruits like pomegranate, grapes, citrus, and strawberries
- Use during boll formation and development for cotton
- Apply during grain filling stage for cereals and corn
- Use when plants show signs of potassium deficiency such as yellowing leaf edges or weak stems
- Apply before or during stress conditions like drought or frost to improve plant tolerance
Step by Step Usage Instructions
For Foliar Spray:
- Fill a clean sprayer tank with the required amount of clean water
- Add 1.0 ml of Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 per litre of water
- Stir the solution well until the fertilizer is fully dissolved
- Spray evenly on both sides of the leaves, preferably in the morning or evening
- Avoid spraying during peak sunlight hours or when rain is expected
For Drip Application:
- Measure 500 ml of the product per acre
- Add the measured quantity to the drip tank or fertigation unit
- Run the drip system as per your regular irrigation schedule
- Ensure the drip lines are clean and free from blockages for even distribution
Compatibility
Gharda Mishran NPK 06:00:18 is compatible with most fertilizers. However, avoid mixing with phosphate-based fertilizers, as this can cause compatibility issues. Always do a small jar test before mixing with any new product to confirm compatibility.
