The plant is now actively building tissue, and any nutrient deficiency can affect the quality of the future harvest. Calcium is especially important in this period: it strengthens cell walls, ensures proper tissue development and helps form dense produce with a long shelf life.
Why is this important?
A shortage of calcium can lead to internal necrosis, deterioration of marketable quality and a shorter storage life. And stressful growing conditions and the development of bacterial diseases make the formation of a quality harvest even harder.
The optimal solution for this stage of development
- ECOLINE Calcium-Boron (Chelates) (3.0–4.0 l/ha) — supplies plants with calcium in the form of a 100% EDTA chelate and with boron, strengthens cell walls, promotes proper tissue formation and increases the density, marketable quality and shelf life of the harvest.
- ECOLINE Phosphite (K-Amino) (1.5–3.0 l/ha) — supports the plant's natural defense mechanisms, helps it tolerate stressful growing conditions, reduces the risk of bacterial diseases, and potassium promotes full formation of the heads and the accumulation of dry matter in them.
- GROS Health (1.0–2.0 l/ha) — activates physiological processes and promotes fast recovery of plants after stress factors and crop protection treatments.
