The Cassava "Tuber Explosion" Formula: How to Get Massive Tubers & High Starch

Parich Fertilizer is the high-performance cassava booster that transforms roots into massive tubers and maximizes starch content using American coating technology.

Stop digging up small, skinny roots. If you want jumbo-sized tubers and high starch percentages that mills pay extra for, Parich Fertilizer is the proven solution.

Why Parich is the "Tuber Explosion" Expert

The key to big tubers. It stimulates explosive root growth, turning feeder roots into large, heavy storage roots (tubers).
Keeps the canopy green and active. A healthy plant photosynthesizes more, sending massive amounts of sugar down to the roots to become starch
Packed with Sulfur (S) and Magnesium (Mg), which are essential for starch synthesis. Expect heavier tubers with higher starch density.
Don't pay for dirt. We give you 100% concentrated nutrients in every bag, ensuring every grain of fertilizer contributes to your profit.

Cassava Fertilizer Application Schedule

  • Step 1 (Day 20-30): Apply the Starter Formula to build strong roots and stems.
  • Step 2 (Day 80-90): Apply the “Tuber Explosion” Formula. This is the critical window when the plant decides how big the tubers will get. Feed it Parich now, and watch the size double!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Which formula is required for the best cassava weight?

A:
  • Basal Stage: We recommend a formula with all 3 primary nutrients (N, P, K), focusing on Higher Nitrogen to promote good vegetative growth.
  • Tuber Bulking Stage (3 months+): Focus on formulas high in Potassium (K), as K helps transport starch from the leaves to accumulate in the tubers.

Q: How much 0-0-60 fertilizer should be applied for the largest tubers?

A: The appropriate amount depends on soil fertility. Generally, applying excessive 0-0-60 does not guarantee the largest tubers. If Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) are lacking in the early stages, overall growth will be limited. You should apply it appropriately during the later stage (3-6 months) to accelerate tuber bulking, provided that sufficient N and P were applied initially.

Q: Can I apply fertilizer during an Aphid (Mealybug) outbreak?

A: You should delay applying fertilizers high in Nitrogen (N). Nitrogen stimulates the growth of young succulent leaves, which are the preferred food for aphids. You should manage and control the aphids first, then apply P and K fertilizers to nourish the tubers instead.

Q: How many times is it best to fertilize cassava?

A: 2 times is the most popular and cost-effective method.
  • 1st Time (1-2 Months): Balanced formula or High N/P.
  • 2nd Time (3-5 Months): Formula focused on Potassium (K).

Q: Can I grow cassava using only organic fertilizer?

A: It is possible, but cassava is a crop that requires high amounts of primary nutrients (especially K) for good yields. Using only organic fertilizer would require a very large quantity. The yield might not be as high as using it in combination with chemical fertilizers.
