Get priceBorax is a boron compound, which is a micronutrient vital to plant nutrient and growth. When the soil is boron deficient, plant growth is stunted, and plants may yellow and reduce yield. If you suspect boron deficiency, have the soil tested. If it is deficient, fertilize with borax to correct boron levels below 0.5 ppm.
Get priceBoron deficiency can be alleviated by the appliion of soluble borates to the soil. In excess quantities, however, borates act as unselective herbicides. Gigantism of several species of plants growing in soil naturally abundant in boron has been reported. It is not yet clear what the precise role of boron in plant life is, but most
Get priceAt the cellular level, boron is integral to a plant''s reproductive cycle. Boron controls flowering, pollen production, germination, and seed and fruit development. As a micronutrient, boron also acts as a fuel pump, helping move sugars from older leaves to new growth areas and root systems. Plants get the boron they need from soil and water.
