PlantForce | Technical Data sheet
The properties of PlantForce rely on harpin signaling proteins, which trigger plant adaptation and enhance self-defense mechanisms. These proteins promote natural growth and, during drought or high evaporation, help plants manage water better through regulated stomatal activity and improved cellular water retention, boosting resilience against heat and drought.
Harpin proteins, combined with micronized calcite, optimize calcium mobilization, strengthening cell structure, boosting enzymatic activity, and improving signal transmission. This enhances overall plant health, stress resilience, and growth processes by efficiently mobilizing calcium.
Adding fulvic acid to harpin and micronized calcium further enhances calcium mobilization for robust cell structure and metabolite formation, complemented by silicon. This combination improves fruit quality attributes like colour intensity, high Brix levels, and storability, while regulating ethylene production for better shelf life and sugar content. Harpin activation increases mineral content, prevents ice crystal formation in plant cells (during mild to moderate frost), and enhances frost resistance and recovery, strengthening plant resilience from stress management to recovery phases.
Benefits
- Added calcium and stimulation of calcium uptake
- Increases abiotic stress tolerance
- Improves the colour and shelf life of the fruit and prevents structural damage during mild to moderate frost
General Advice
For optimum results, it is recommended to use the product during key stages of the growth phase and periods of abiotic stress. Dissolve in 200/800 liters of (chlorine-free) water (pH between 5 and 10) per hectare. Use water with a minimum temperature of 10 degrees. Wait 15 to 30 minutes and stir frequently. Spray prepared product over the entire crop within 4 to 6 hours. Allow at least 2 hours drying time.
General application
This product can be used in combination with all GrowSolutions fertilisers, GrowSolutions microbial products and GrowSolutions biostimulants. Do not mix the product with pesticides or chlorinated products.
