BlueGold® Selenium (NOP)

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. At low concentrations, Selenium can promote plant growth, act as an antioxidant and defensive molecule against pathogens in plants. 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

Our BlueGold® Selenium undergoes our trade secret Eden Synergy micronization process which maximizes immediate bioavailability and combines our Selenium with our flagship BlueGold® technology. See our Selenium Poultry Premix here used to help with lameness in Poultry.

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 prior to purchase and use. 

Do not use with synthetically enhanced or high Na/Cl grow media with BlueGold®. By itself, BlueGold® 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, without chemical interactions, will never cause these issues in any plant or soil (when used as directed). Users must respect BlueGold® labels and reduce NPK/synthetic inputs by +/- 90%. If by user choice, against our directions/recommendations, to use chemical inputs by combining with BlueGold®, they must be reduced by 90% or more and then dialed up as you see fit. If you encounter problems in the plants from the chemicals by your choice, then 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. Especially when all the excess stored up chemicals inputs, flood into 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. We do not advocate mixing BlueGold® with any chemicals. This all only applies to chemical-based products and does not apply to organic-based products except for humic and fulvic acids (please start at a 50% reduced rate). If you feel you need more, then start at a reduced rate of 90% and test on a few plants first.

As the manufacturer we offer 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 soil, sap, water testing conditions, and Postal damages. No warranty or fitment of purpose promised.
