BlueGold® Selenium (NOP Compliant Micronutrient)

NOP COMPLIANT MICRONUTRIENT SELENIUM –
DERIVED FROM: SODIUM SELENITE

WHAT CAN PROPER SELENIUM LEVELS DO FOR YOU?

Selenium (Se) is a micronutrient under much scrutiny and indecisiveness for its benefits and risks. It is an essential nutrient; however, its range of PPM from benefit to risk is even smaller than with Copper. Selenium can promote plant growth at low concentrations and act as an antioxidant and defensive molecule against plant pathogens. At too high concentrations, plants will show toxic symptoms like stunting of growth, chlorosis, withering, drying of leaves, and low protein synthesis.

ABOUT BLUEGOLD® SELENIUM

Micronutrient BlueGold® Selenium undergoes our Eden Synergy micronization process to maximize immediate bioavailability and is combined with our flagship BlueGold® technology. Derived from Sodium Selenite. BlueGold® Selenium is for use with Selenium-deficient plants. (Selenium is not authorized for Agricultural use in some States. Please check with your State and Certifier before purchase and use.)

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION

For best results, this product must be used in conjunction with a proper Soil and Sap Test Analysis and applied according to test results for the crop type, crop height, and PPM change required. Properly balancing nutrients by simultaneously lowering all excess and raising all deficient nutrient PPMs is critical to long-lasting beneficial results in any crop.

Depending on the Selenium PPM change needed, possible rates are as follows: If by foliar, 1 to 9 fl. oz. per acre with a minimum of 21 gallons of water. A non-guaranteed general use recommendation of this product in foliar applications per acre basis is 1oz per one foot of crop height for a desired plant sap movement of 1 PPM. If by fertigation injection, 1 to 9 fl. oz. per acre. If by aerial, 1 to 21 fl. oz. per 5 gallons of water used per acre. If by pivot or wheel line, apply at 100% ground speed, then resume normal ground speed watering. It can be applied in all weather conditions, including rain and extreme heat. The best spray time is early morning when dew is present. Rates subject to excesses, i.e., salts, chlorides, metals, sulfur, etc.

CAUTION

BlueGold® Selenium is a NOP Complaint Input for Certified Organic Operations (please contact your certifier before purchase and use) with Restrictions: Micronutrients should only be used in cases where soil or plant deficiency is documented by testing. We recommend Apical Crop Science Soil and Sap testing. Rates depend on the PPM change needed. Use only according to the manufacturer’s directions. Do not use more than 13 fl. oz.. per year. Consider smaller rates and multiple applications, not to exceed the yearly maximum of Selenium (Se) allowable per acre per year in your State. While some States allow its usage for deficiencies and in hydroponics, most states have very specific laws regarding Selenium. Selenium is not authorized for Agricultural use in some States. Please check with your State and Certifier before purchase and use. 

Do not use with synthetically enhanced or grow media with excesses of Na Sodium, Chlorides, Aluminum, Sulfur, Magnesium, Potassium, NO3/NH4, Iron, and Boron with BlueGold®. We strongly recommend avoiding ocean-based products high in Na Sodium, Chlorides, and other salts with our Solutions and Sulfur-based products, salt, and heavy metal humus, manures (primarily commercial), and composts (especially mushroom, dead animal, etc.), etc. These inputs are upside down with excesses. The BlueGold® Grow System is based on balanced Nutritionals. By itself, BlueGold®, at recommended rates using Apical Testing, will not harm ANY crop, plant, biology, system, human, animal, environment, pollinator, or beneficial (including birds, butterflies, earthworms, etc.). Do NOT combine with pesticides/chemicals/plant cleaners/etc. Very recent or current use of chemicals like fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, algaecides, bactericides, miticides, pesticides, biocides, fumigants, plant growth regulators, pH Up/Down chemicals, dyes, etc., – all can cause an unfavorable interaction due to the Wetting Agent properties of BlueGold® Solutions, which can magnify the strength of said chemical. Strengthened doses of those chemicals can result in direct stress, burning, or death of plants. BlueGold® Solutions by themselves, at recommended rates, without chemical interactions, will never cause these issues in any plant or soil (when used as directed). Users must respect BlueGold® labels and manufacturer warnings to not combine with chemical/synthetic/excess element inputs by +/- 90%. It is the user’s choice against our directions/recommendations. If you encounter problems in the plants from the previously mentioned by your choice, STOP. If you quickly move the pH to 6.4 with the help of pH adjusters, without adjusting inputs, you’re drastically making inputs more available, which results in stressed, burned, or dead plants from too big of a hit from the nutrients that are now available at a much higher % than previously. This is especially true when all the chemical/synthetic/excesses stored up flood the plants at even higher EC/PPM values. Likewise, if you do not adjust inputs while using BlueGold®, as soil/sap pH is driven to 6.4, the same can happen over an extended period depending on soil and watering conditions. Store in a cool place.

As the manufacturer, we offer a 100% Guarantee when used as directed, within the Eden Guaranteed Grow Program. A limited guarantee restricted to exclusive use with BlueGold® products and systems subject to the Apical soil, sap, water testing conditions, and Postal damages. No warranty or fitment of purpose promised.
