Splendor contains forchlorfenuron, a powerful plant growth regulator, and is formulated to help increase size and yield in addition to improving quality in a variety of fruits. In sweet cherries, Splendor gives you control of fruit size increase, based on rate used and timing, and promotes better resistance to splitting from rain when applied at color break. In pears, Splendor promotes increased yield per acre and fruit size with minimal elongated calyx end formation when applied 15 to 25 days post-petal fall. Used on grapes, it can increase berry set or size, depending on application timing, and can be used to delay harvest, based on rate used and timing. When applied to blueberries during bloom, Splendor improves fruit set and berry size, and is useful to delay fruit maturity, depending on rate used and timing.

Advocate is a plant growth stimulant for use by foliar and basal methods on plants that can be propagated from cuttings. Use on annual, perennial, and woody ornamental plant cuttings.

Novagib is a well-known fact that the application of gibberellins GA4 and GA7 can increase fruit size and improve fruit finish in apples. However, research has shown that GA4 is more efficient in delivering these benefits than GA7. And, GA7 adversely affects the level of return bloom significantly more than GA4. In Novagib, Fine Americas employs a unique fermentation process to produce ultra-pure GA4 with insignificant levels of GA7. The result: a highly effective PGR that delivers all the benefits of GA4 without the drawbacks of GA7.

Florgib offers effective growth control in a wide range of ornamental plants, including chrysanthemums, gardenias, azaleas, hydrangeas and poinsettias, as well as petunias, marigolds and other flowering and foliage plant species. This popular PGR helps growers manage plant growth and development to ensure plants are more compact, stronger and better suited to cope with the rigors of transportation and transplanting, thus meeting increasingly stringent customer expectations.

Fresco is approved for reduction in lower leaf yellowing in Easter lily, LA hybrid lily and Asiatic lily. Fresco promotes bract expansion on poinsettia. By making plants more presentable, Fresco helps growers produce greater numbers of top-quality plants. Fine currently is conducting research to expand the Fresco label to cover additional ornamental plant species.

Falgro 4L is an extremely versatile plant growth regulator with uses including cluster elongation and thinning in table grapes, improved fruit set in blueberries, control of rind disorders in citrus and improved fruit firmness and quality in stone fruit. Falgro 4L comes in an easy-to-measure, easy-to-mix liquid formulation with a short 4-hour restricted entry interval (REI).

Citadel provides effective PGR activity on a broad range of containerized crops, such as poinsettia, geraniums, azaleas, hibiscus, bedding plants and other herbaceous and woody ornamentals. By inhibiting the biosynthesis of gibberellins, Citadel reduces plant height by limiting internode elongation. Citadel can be applied alone or tank-mixed with other plant growth regulators such as Dazide 85 WSG (85% daminozide) to produce higher-quality plants. On certain crops a tank mix of Citadel and Dazide 85 WSG can provide a synergistic effect that results in enhanced activity.

Falgro 2X LV contains 2.0 grams active ingredient per fluid ounce of formulated product. With twice the concentration of gibberellin A3 (GA3) as Falgro 4L, Falgro 2X LV is the first low VOC liquid GA3 formulation approved by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation. It offers many benefits in high-value fruit and vegetable crops, including cluster elongation and thinning in table grapes, improved fruit set in blueberries, control of rind disorders in citrus and improved fruit firmness and quality in stone fruit. As with all Falgro formulations, Falgro 2X LV comes with a short 4-hour restricted entry interval (REI) to allow workers quick access to treated crops.

Concise is an effective growth retardant for use on a wide variety of ornamental crops. It reduces plant height by limiting internode elongation, resulting in more desirable, compact and marketable plants. In fact, Concise has been shown to increase the quality of plants even in the absence of noticeable growth reductions. These desirable qualities include darker colors, higher chlorophyll content, greater leaf thickness, stronger stems, increased water retention and, at times, increased flower number and size.

Falgro 20SP offers all the benefits of Falgro 4L in a concentrated soluble powder formulation. Its many uses include cluster elongation and thinning in table grapes, improved fruit set in blueberries, control of rind disorders in citrus and improved fruit firmness and quality in stone fruit. Like all Falgro formulations, Falgro 20SP comes with a 4-hour restricted entry interval (REI) to allow workers access to treated crops shortly after application.

Abide is a very versatile plant growth regulator for use on a wide variety of container-grown ornamental crops. It effectively reduces internode elongation, generating more compact and sturdier plants. In addition, it promotes darker green foliage, thereby enhancing the marketability of treated plants.

Piccolo brings out the best in ornamentals by producing compact, consistent quality plants. By delivering outstanding height and radius control, Piccolo enhances the quality of bedding plants, flowering and foliage crops, bulb crops, perennials and woody ornamentals, making them easier to market and more profitable to produce. As a spray or drench, Piccolo has been proven in dozens of university trials and ranks among the most popular PGRs among quality-minded growers.

Configure effectively increases lateral branching and flowering in a number of popular ornamental species. In addition, applications of Configure may reduce the height of treated plants, resulting in more compact and marketable crops. Configure is labeled for use on containerized annual and perennial flowering and foliage crops as well as tropical plants.

Motivate promotes earlier fruit coloration and maturity in a wide variety of crops, including apples, blackberries, blueberries, cantaloupes, cherries, grapes, peppers, pineapple, sugarcane, tobacco and tomatoes. It also aids in barrenberry control in blueberries and loosens apples, blackberries, cherries and walnuts for earlier, more efficient harvest. When applied as directed to cantaloupes, Motivate promotes fruit abscission (slipping). In the Pacific Northwest, it can also be used to increase dormant fruit bud hardiness and delayed spring bloom in sweet cherries. And in wheat and barley, Motivate shortens and strengthens stalks to reduce costly lodging.

Collate can be used to increase lateral branching in many popular ornamental varieties, including azaleas, chrysanthemums, geraniums, lantana, petunias and verbena. It is also ideal for controlling plant height and stem topple in daffodils and hyacinth, as well as delaying flowering in a wide range of ornamental crops. Ethephon, the active ingredient in Collate, has been a staple of ornamental production for years.
