Features & Benefits

General Information

SUNNY* 50 SC is a plant growth regulator which acts by influencing gibberellin production.

The major effect of SUNNY* 50 SC when applied at flowering on avocados is the enhancement and improvement of fruit shape. An improved fruit size distribution and yield improvement are often associated with the use of SUNNY* 50 SC.

SUNNY* 50 SC applied after mid-summer pruning when vegetative re-growth is between 10 - 15 cm long provides suppression of vegetative growth.
