DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW, the easy-to-apply organic trace element mix

Trace elements are essential for proper plant growth and development. Although they are required only in very small quantities, they play a crucial role. DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW in MINIGRAN® Technology was specifically developed for (container-grown) plants that are sensitive to deficiency symptoms. This trace element mix is also recommended for crops where soil analyses indicate insufficient trace element levels. DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW is successfully used in container cultivation, tree nurseries and ornamental horticulture.

With MINIGRAN® Technology

Thanks to the MINIGRAN® mini-granules, DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW can be spread evenly, ensuring a homogeneous distribution, even at low application rates. Each MINIGRAN® granule contains exactly the same proportion of trace elements.

Mix of trace elements

Enriched with organic matter

The vegetal raw materials in DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW provide a high organic matter content. This acts as a temporary buffer for the trace elements, making them less susceptible to leaching. Nutrients are released gradually, according to the plant's needs.

Every element has its function

The spreadable organic trace element mix DCM MICRO-MIX YELLOW contains: boron (B) + copper (Cu) + iron (Fe) + manganese (Mn) + molybdenum (Mo) + zinc (Zn). Each element has its own important role in plant development.

This balanced trace element mix provides a solution for deficiency symptoms that often occur in combination and contains carefully selected proportions that minimise the risk of antagonisms between elements.
