How much NEXGROW do I need?
Uses the documented dose for the crop and stage you pick, on the same basis as printed (per application, or per year where the rate says so).
A guide only. Soil condition changes the right rate — paddy doses depend on your soil's CEC, which a soil test measures.
Durian
What NEXGROW does for durian
- Assists the formation and growth of a strong root system, so trees absorb water and nutrients well, especially in drought or nutrient-deficient soils. Durian roots are sensitive to soil compaction.
- Supports energy transfer within the plant and enhances photosynthetic rate.
- Supports the initiation and development of flowers, which affects the number of fruits set, and the development of the husk and flesh.
- Can enhance tolerance to drought, salinity and nutrient deficiencies.
- Can reduce the need for synthetic phosphorus fertilisers.

Rates for paddy depend on soil CEC, and every crop responds to pH and organic matter. A soil test tells you which rate to use.
