3032 Iron Zinc Chelated Solution, 32-Ounce,Brown/A

Quickly treats cholorsis. While you should still use a soil acidifier as a long term treatment, this is good if your plants are already showing cholorsis stress. I love that it can also be a foliage treatment. I usually notice improvement the next day.

First, this product (3032) is 32 fluid ounces, not 16 ounces as is currently in the description. I suspected that was the case, as there's also a 3016 advertised as 16 ounces (and more expensive at present). I am pleased that it turned out to be true. I could not find any description of the concentrations of this product, but I did find an MSDS, which claimed 2% "iron solution" and 2% "zinc solution". This actually results in a product that is 0.2% zinc, and 0.2% iron, according to the product label. Being a chelate, it can be used as a foliar spray that gets absorbed through the leaves, and these concentrations are reasonable enough for that. If you were planning to use this to treat soil, it won't go very far. That said, the low concentrations are probably good on the zinc side, it's easy to over-do zinc and kill off plants. A bit more digging around, and this product does have a metal analysis registered with California, and nothing seems particularly dangerous (a bit over 1ppm of lead, but that is pretty low and this product is used heavily diluted with water..) I used this as a foliar spray on a small patch of lawn that's got a really absurdly low zinc and phosphorus levels (among other problems, and yes I had a professional agricultural laboratory analyze a sample of the soil). The area has been showing stunted growth of new seedlings (1 year old seedlings still under 1" tall, a sign of low Zn), and general thinning (sign of low P). Since applying phosphorus will worsen the zinc problem, I really wanted to give a bit of zinc boost here shortly after the P application. It's now a few weeks after both applications and the grass is looking better in general. Some of the edges of the stunted area are showing proper growth, although there's still a lot of stunted grass in the mid section. We'll see how this improves over time.

This worked great for my jasmine vine, the leaves were turning yellow so I watered it a little less and used this zinc formula. My vines came back to life all green and the flowers were prolific! It really helped my jasmine.

I've got a little hobby greenhouse so I'm able to grow lemons up here in the Pacific Northwest. A couple years ago my tree began to look poorly, yellow, and was dropping leaves and such, so I read up on citrus and discovered that my little tree was lacking essential nutrients. I bought this Liquinox Iron Zinc Solution, applied it as recommended, and voila, my little tree has never been happier. Now I've got lemons. I think I'll make lemonade.

Our soil here is iron-deficient which causes yellowing of green leaves. Uncle George, an old school farmer, swore by this stuff. He would drip it into the irrigation water in his garden. So, after 2 applications of Liquinox , all my plants have greened up: juniper, hawthorn, hibiscus, and even the disagreeable cycads. Easy to apply: dilute in water, apply, water in. Thanks Uncle George.

I need more time to see if and how it works. right now there is a green scum on top of the water that I used to mix the product and i don't know if this is normal. that is probably a question I should be asking of you

Helped my fruit trees when they had brown leaves.

This liquid formula provides fast "greening" action to plants. Although I also like to work iron granules into the soil for a gradual release, this liquid solution helps almost overnight for noticeably greener landscaping. HOWEVER, we live in a dry desert area with very alkaline soil, a poor soil quality (if there is any soil to begin with), and we were buying this gardening product so often that we did a lot of research. We learned that when plants are not responding but continue to be yellow and have very little growth despite iron granules and spraying of iron/zinc liquid that we need something called EDDHA Iron. We bought that product on Amazon and finally some of our dying bottle brush and privet plants not only have survived but have a lot of growth. And it is green growth.
