ALGATON is a N-P-K biostimulant made out of natural extracts of marine algae, enriched with Molybdenum. This product has a high stimulating power, because it contains algae extract that provides a high ratio of natural phytohormones (cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins, …), amino acids and carbohydrates (alginic acid, mannitol, laminarine, …) which, once applied, permeates the cellular tissues and has an influence in the plant’s physiological processes, stimulating its growth and blooming. ALGATON is recommended as a stimulant of the plant’s metabolic activity, because the elements it contains promote the process related with blooming, fruit formation and fruit ripening, and also helps to get over adverse conditions or stress situations. It also promotes the fruits homogeneity and their transport resistance. It is recommended to use ALGATON since sprouting, in pre-blooming, blooming and in the stages of higher development of the crop.

Collate can be used to increase lateral branching in many popular ornamental varieties, including azaleas, chrysanthemums, geraniums, lantana, petunias and verbena.

FOSFITAL CALCIUM is a biostimulant made out of Calcium phosphite and enriched with Nitrogen and Boron which presents a double function over crops: on one hand it acts as a source of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Calcium and Boron. On the other hand, because of its contents in phosphorus in phosphite ion form, it stimulates the self-defense mechanisms of the plants roots, neck, stems and fruits against pathogenic fungi. It is recommended to use FOSFITAL CALCIUM when there is an increased consumption of these elements, like during formation of the root system, blooming, fruit formation, fattening and ripening. It prevents damping and rot diseases in horticultural crops.

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.

FOSFITAL EXTRA is a biostimulant made out of Calcium phosphite which presents a double function over crops: on one hand it acts as a source of phosphorus and potassium. On the other hand, because of its contents in phosphorus in phosphite ion form, it stimulates the selfdefense mechanisms of the plants roots, neck, stems and fruits against pathogenic fungi. It is recommended to use FOSFITAL EXTRA when there is an increased consumption of these elements, like during formation of the root system, blooming, fruit formation, fattening and ripening.

Kudos 27.5 has proven its value in apples and sweet cherries by reducing vegetative shoot growth and lessening the need for summer and dormant season pruning. Kudos also improves fruit color in red and bi-color apple varieties by allowing better light penetration into the tree canopy. Tests show that Kudos reduces the incidence and severity of fire blight in apples. And, Kudos also shortens internode length in grass grown for seed and peanut plants, increasing yield potential and improving the harvestability of these two crops.

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.

VEGEAMINO is a bioactivator made out of free amino acids obtained by hydrolysis of vegetal proteins which activates the phisiology and hormonal processes. The elements it contains are destined to stimulate the plant’s chlorophyllic function and accelerate the vegetative development of the crops. VEGEAMINO improves and activates the assimilation of trace minerals, empowering their effect if used together. It also reinforces the action of fungicides and insecticides, so that it is recommended to mix them. VEGEAMINO is specially recommended before and after sprouting, because it promotes and speeds up the crop development, reinforcing the plants vigor and improving their resistance to certain diseases. It is also recommended to promote the crop development during its first stages (young plants or recently transplanted), during critical stages of growth and to face stress situations.

Quanta is a unique potassium phosphite, systemic fungicide/root enhancer used to prevent and treat disease in various turf and ornamental applications.
