I think it relates to the mix of nitrogen, phosphorus, & potassium I don't get the 16 as a measure but this is what they represent.
16-16-16 is the relative percentage % of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P), and Potassium(K) (in the form of Potash).
Miracle Gro is 15-30-15 meaning that mixture is 15% N, 30% K2O5, & 15% P2O.
Plants use these nutrients to develop different parts; N builds strong leaves, Phosphate builds strong roots, and Potash promotes root development and disease resistance.
A useful memory device is: "Up, Down, All-Around".
The #'s represent how much of the N-P-K is put out in a 1000 sq ft.
THIS ANSWER IS PARTIALLY INCORECT. Generally correct, but the middle number is P2O5% (not P or P2O) and the last number is K2O% (not K or K2O5). You can convert P2O5 to P by multiplying by 43.7% (there is that much phosphorus (P) in P2O5; the rest is oxygen (O)). You can convert K2O to K by multiplying by 83.3%.
The weight of a bag of fertilizer can vary depending on the brand and type of fertilizer. Typically, bags of fertilizer range from 10 pounds to 50 pounds. Specialty fertilizers may come in smaller or larger bags.
To find out how many bags of fertilizer Danny needs, first calculate the area of the garden by multiplying its length and width: 8m × 10m = 80 square meters. Since one bag of fertilizer covers 16 square meters, divide the total area by the coverage per bag: 80 sq m ÷ 16 sq m/bag = 5 bags. Therefore, Danny will need 5 bags of fertilizer to cover the entire garden.
There are two ways to get Fertilizer: 1. When you go to a friend's farm you will be able to fertilize their crops, you get 5 bags. For each bag you use, you will get 1xp and 4 farm coins. 2. If you have a dairy farm it will give you randomly 5 additional bags of fertilizer to give to your friends, so your friends will be able to use 10 fertilizer bags instead of 5.
yes
You would need to buy 4 bags.
Phillip's lawn covers 14400 ft2 Since each bag of fertilizer covers 3000 ft2, we would need 5 bags of fertilizer to cover his lawn. (14400/3000=4.8)
Fertilizer is typically transported by truck, rail, or ship. It is often packaged in bags or containers for transport or can be transported in bulk. Delivery method depends on the quantity and distance the fertilizer needs to travel.
Bags of fertilizers is used to fertilize your friends' farms. If you visit a friend, you can fertilize their plowed land, planted land or even ready to harvest plants and you will gain 1 experience for each fertilizer you use and so does your friend.
2 bags covers 5,000 square feet so you'll need 3 bags with enough fertilizer left over to cover 1,500 square feet.
The ratio of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium is what the numbers '15-15-15' indicate on fertilizer bags. That's why such fertilizers often are called 'NPK' fertilizers. That's also why the numbers are called 'NPK' numbers. The letters are the representations of the elements listed above.
Multiwall paper bags, which use three or more plies of paper, are used heavily in industrial applications for the transport and sale of products such as seed and fertilizer.
16-32-16 refers to 16% nitrogen 32% phosphate and 16% potash. It is used for plant growth.
