Ammonium Nitrate - Top Dressing Fertilizer

Precautions

• To Take While Using Ammonium Nitrate
• This is a potent and dangerous substance used in explosives. Cover yourself well and stay away from ignition sources during use as it may cause an explosion if incorrectly handled.
• When applying ammonium nitrate to plants, always apply in a circular pattern away from any exposed roots.
• Always use gloves to avoid chemical burns.
• Store any unused ammonium nitrate in a cool, dry place.

Caution

• If handled normally, ammonium nitrate won’t cause harm. However, inhalation in large amounts will result in chemical poisoning.
• Due to ammonium toxicity, the reaction when swallowed in high concentrations includes dizziness, headache, stomach ache, vomiting, bloody diarrhoea, convulsion and heart failure.
• Ammonium nitrate may cause fire or an explosion. It may ignite highly combustible materials such as fuel oil, wood, and paper.

The proper application provides your plants with the nitrogen required to create lush foliage. Ammonium nitrate within the compost will be absorbed by your plants within four weeks, so it’s good to reapply in one-month intervals throughout the growing season.
