- Intervention effect Adding any tested adjuvant to KNO3 increased cotton leaf blade K at four hours from 13.0 to 14.9 g/kg.
- Intervention effect At 24 hours, KNO3 alone raised cotton leaf blade K over water and unsprayed checks.
- Intervention effect Cotton petiole K averaged 47 g/kg and was unaffected by treatments.
- Intervention effect Foliar K increased cotton leaf blade K in both years.
- Intervention effect Foliar K did not affect cotton lint yield in either year.
