K-Star is a chloride free, clear to slightly yellow liquid solution containing 23% K20 and 8% plants available sulfur. Each gallon of K-Star contains approximately 2.6 pounds of potassium (K20)  and approximately 1.0 pounds of sulfur (S). University test have show that K-Star is seed safe when used at recommended rates. In fact, it was on of the safest materials tested in germination trials.

 

K-Star can be blended in any ratio with 10-34-0 or 11-37-0 to provide potassium and sulfur, critical nutrients, especially in minimum or no-tillage conditions. Blends with UAN solution should be jar tested before making large quantities. UAN blends should contain enough water to equal the lesser amount of one of these products to reduce crystal formation. K-Star can be acidified to a pH of 6.0 to form a stable acidic fertilizer for high pH soils.

​

Unless otherwise noted, all suggested uses are for K-Star only. For additional products or increased rates of application, test plots should be conducted before planting large acreage.

​

The purpose of this guide is to provide information about this product and to make suggestions   regarding its use. This guide does not make recommendations about the amount of potassium and sulfur needed for optimum crop production. The rate of each application of K-Star should be made based on a soil test and/or plant tissue analysis for potassium and sulfur, and on the recommendations of a Certified Crop Advisor, Pest Control Advisor or authorized K-Star distributor.

K-Star was the most seed-safe potassium-based fertilizer in germination trials conducted at South Dakota State University.

​

This research study demonstrated that K-Star had the least negative
effect on germination when compared with:

  - 10-34-0
  - 7-21-7
  - 3-18-18
 
- 9-18-9

  - 7-24-6-4S
  - Potassium Sulfate
 
- Potassium Chloride
