Suståne 16-4-8 was developed as a combination fertilizer with a time released 4-1-2 nutrient package blended with a 50% Suståne humus rich, premium natural base. Suståne 16-4-8 is perfect for outdoor and greenhouse cannabis crops that require an extended release of essential nutrients.
Suståne 16-4-8 Nursery Fertilizer is available in both 180-day and 120-day release profiles to meet the needs of your production cycle. Suståne 16-4-8 Nursery Fertilizer is derived from aerobically composted turkey litter, polymer coated urea, polymer coated MAP, and polymer coated potassium nitrate.
Suståne products are derived from biologically stable humus-rich compost and contain both water soluble nitrogen (WSN) and slow release nitrogen (SRN), beneficial microbiology, and all 17 elements essential for plant photosynthesis. With a near-neutral pH, a low salt index and low ammonium nitrogen percentage, Suståne will not cause seedling stress or plant fertilizer “burn”. Suståne products increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC) by supplying humates and stable organic matter. Suståne’s organic and blended natural fertilizers provide all soil types with additional buffering capacity, allowing for more consistent and productive growth.
- Suståne Natural Base + Controlled Release Fertilizers (CRF) are the new generation in environmentally friendly plant nutrition with minimal impact on the non-target environment

Low Rate: Recommended for salt sensitive species; when concurrent with liquid feed; with production systems utilizing low leaching fractions (less than 10%); and when applied to heavy potting substrates (total porosity less than 65%).
Medium Rate: Recommended for use on medium feeding species; on most nursery stock and foliage plants; and when liquid feed is not performed.
High Rate: Recommended for use on heavy feeding species; with production systems utilizing high leaching fractions (greater than 20%); and when applied to light, porous substrates (total porosity greater than 80%).
