Many microelements in the composition are in chelated form, which makes them easy to absorb by plants. Fertilizers are used both for root nutrition and for leaf feeding; the solution is absorbed into the tissue and saturates the plants with microelements.

Instructions for use
Granular fertilizer "Bona Forte" is applied to the soil in dry form, scattered over the surface, and embedded in the soil. Or when digging it is mixed with soil.
If this is not a preliminary application when preparing the site, but feeding the plants, then after planting the substance, the beds are watered so that the granules dissolve.
Liquid fertilizer is diluted with water and watered at the roots of the plants or sprayed on the leaves. Dosage of the drug: dilute 10 ml in 1.5 liters of water, consumption - until the soil is wetted. For spraying on a leaf, the dosage is different: 5 ml per 1.5 l, you need to spray until the leaves are completely wet on both sides. When spraying indoor flowering plants, do not get on the flowers.
