Technical Details |
|
 |
Developed and produced for the horticultural industry to assist growers achieve high calcium levels on demand
in fruit and vegetables. |
|
|
|
Boron content increases the uptake of calcium and other nutrients
needed for sugar production and ripening by increasing the stem
conductivity. |
|
|
|
Strengthens junction between fruit and stem during fruit formation
allowing full growth potential to be achieved. |
|
|
|
Reduces fruit "splitting" and ensures fruit skin is tougher.
Improves transportability and keeping quality, increasing shelf life. |
|
|
|
Contains no chlorides or nitrates. |
|
|
|
Designed to be applied as a foliar fertiliser to further increase efficiency
of
achieving rapid and high calcium levels in fruit. |
