Drexel X 28-0-0 Liquid Fertilizer
Drexel X 28-0-0 Liquid Fertilizer is a nitrogen-forward, slow-release solution designed to power vigorous growth across a diverse range of crops. With an NPK ratio of 28-0-0, it delivers nitrogen in a form that’s ready to move with your irrigation or soil-applied program, helping crops achieve steady green-up and strong yields from transplant to harvest.
Each gallon contains 2.96 pounds of total nitrogen, including 2.14 pounds of high-quality, controlled-release nitrogen. That means you get an initial supply to kick-start growth, followed by a measured, ongoing release that maintains crop vigor and reduces the risk of nitrogen flushes or leaching. This thoughtful release profile is especially valuable in variable weather and longer growth cycles.
What sets this fertilizer apart
-
Full nitrogen, no phosphorus or potassium — 28-0-0 provides a dedicated nitrogen source for crops that require precise N management without upsetting existing phosphorus/potassium plans.
-
Slow-release nitrogen — 2.14 lb of controlled-release N per gallon translates to smoother growth curves, better canopy development, and more uniform yields over time.
-
Liquid formulation for flexible application — ideal for fertigation through drip or sprinkler systems, as well as soil-applied methods, making seasonal adjustments easier.
-
Versatile across crops - suitable for leafy greens, row crops, vegetables, fruit trees, ornamentals, and nursery stock, adapting to diverse production needs.
-
Efficient packaging - packaged in a 2.5-gallon container, delivering about 7.4 pounds of total nitrogen per container (2.96 lb N/gal × 2.5 gal) and about 5.35 pounds of controlled-release N per container.
Practical uses and scenarios
Use Drexel X 28-0-0 during key growth stages when crops demand robust nitrogen without overloading the system with quick-release N. It shines in fertigation programs that rely on consistent nutrient delivery, such as:
- Establishing leafy crops and turf where steady green growth is essential.
- Supporting fruiting crops where balanced nitrogen timing improves setting and vigor.
- Supplementing nitrogen in nurseries and field nurseries to accelerate nursery stock development.
How to apply
Integrate this liquid fertilizer into your existing irrigation plan or apply through soil-applied methods as part of a balanced nutrient strategy. Start with label-recommended dilutions and adjust based on crop type, growth stage, soil conditions, and observed vigor. Always follow label directions for dilution, timing, and compatibility with crops to maximize results.
Storage and handling
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep the container closed when not in use, and follow standard safety practices for handling concentrated nitrogen solutions as indicated on the product label.
Who benefits most
Commercial growers, greenhouse operators, and serious home gardeners managing larger plots or multiple crop types will appreciate the predictable nitrogen release, reduced nutrient fluctuations, and the flexibility of a liquid, all-nitrogen formulation that can be tailored to irrigation schedules and crop demand.
