Monty's Plant Food is a liquid fertilizer that is recommended as a supplement to your current fertilizer program. It is best applied to the seed or plant directly. Monty's is not recommended to replace the nutrients typically added to the soil. We suggest taking a soil sample and having a qualified independent lab analyze the samples to determine the nutrient levels in your soils and then follow recommended applications to ensure proper nutritional levels.

Monty's products are designed specifically for fertility enhancement purposes. When mixing with other farm chemicals it is suggested to tank mix Monty's only after diluting the pesticide according to label directions. When tank mixing any Monty's products with other farm chemicals, always read and follow the label directions of the pesticide you are considering.

Monty's fertility products are compatible with many farm chemicals and may improve the efficacy of some pesticide applications but Monty's does not guarantee it to do so. Monty's suggests administering a jar test and a strip test before applying Monty's as a tank mix. Knowing the chemical’s mode of action (blocks photosynthesis) or metal content (copper based) will help determine the compatibility with Monty's. Please call 1-800-978-6342 with any questions.

Monty's fertility products are recommended at a rate of 16-24 oz. per acre in a minimum of 15 gallons of water. For specific application directions or information regarding irrigated crops, see your local dealer or call 800-978-6342
