Plant growth stimulants are used to accelerate their development. They contain substances that accelerate the development of crops at all stages and increase productivity. Let's look at the composition and action of "Energen", how the stimulant works, when it can be used to treat seeds, seedlings, to water plants, to be applied to the soil. Compatibility, toxicity of the drug and its analogues.
Composition and formulation of the growth stimulator
"Energen" includes salts of humic and silicic acids in an amount of 850 g per kg, as well as mineral elements. Produced by the manufacturer in the form of water-soluble granules and capsules of 0.6 g. The package contains 10 capsules; in a package of a similar drug “Energen Extra” - 20 pieces.
How it works and when to use the drug
"Energen" enhances all plant processes, protects against the effects of cold, frost, drought, increases the likelihood of survival of seedlings and seedlings during planting and replanting, enhances the germination rate and speed of seed germination. The yield increases by a third, the content of nitrates, metal salts, and radionuclides decreases, and the amount of vitamins increases. Fruit ripening is accelerated by 1-1.5 weeks.
It is used by watering and spraying all vegetable, flower and garden crops, for soaking before sowing seeds.
Instructions for use of "Energen"
Seeds and vegetable seedlings are treated with a growth stimulator and already vegetative plants are watered. It is also used to water the beds after planting plants or sowing seeds.
For seeds
For seeds, prepare a solution of 5-10 drops per 50 ml of water. This amount is enough for 2-10 g of seeds. Tomatoes are soaked for 4 hours, cucumbers, cabbage - for 6 hours. The stimulator increases the strength of germination and increases germination.
To spray potato tubers, you need to dilute 10 ml of the product in 0.5 liters and spray 2-3 days before planting. Flower bulbs are sprayed with the same solution before planting.
For seedlings
Concentration and preparation of the solution: dilute 1 capsule in 1 liter of water, use the resulting solution for 2.5 square meters when watering. m. When spraying, use this amount of liquid per 40 square meters. m.
Spraying should be done in the morning or evening.Spray the liquid so that it evenly covers the leaves. The first spraying should be done when the seedlings have their first true leaf, then at intervals of 1.5-2 weeks.
For watering plants
To treat berry fields and trees, dilute 3 capsules in 10 liters and wet the leaves completely. During the season, it is necessary to carry out from 4 to 6 treatments, which occur at the main stages of development: before and after flowering, during the formation of ovaries, during fruit growth.
For soil treatment
For one hundred square meters of garden area, you need to take 2-3 capsules, mix their contents with fertilizers and apply the mixture to the ground. It can be applied in spring or autumn. Treating the soil with Energen increases its nutritional value, saturates it with oxygen, and reduces acidity.
Security measures
"Energen" is not toxic to humans, soil, plants themselves, birds, animals and insects. When working with the product, you need to wear gloves, a respirator and plastic goggles. If the powder comes into contact with the skin, an allergy may develop. Therefore, if the powder or solution accidentally gets on the skin, it must be washed off.
Compatibility
Energen can be combined with water-soluble fertilizers and various pesticides. This property allows you to treat seeds, young or vegetative plants with several preparations at once, which makes caring for plants easier and reduces processing time and costs.
Storage rules
"Energen" can be stored for 3 years, in unopened or tightly opened containers from the manufacturer.Store at a room temperature of 0 to +35 °C, in a dark, dry and ventilated warehouse for pesticides and fertilizers. Do not place food, various feeds, medications, or water near the stimulator.
The solution prepared for watering or spraying can be stored for 1 day, so it should be prepared in such a way that it can all be used up on the day it is prepared.
Analogues of the drug
In agriculture and on personal plots, other growth stimulants can be used: “Kornevin”, succinic acid, “Help Rost”, “Agromix Epin”, potassium or sodium humate, “Vertex”, “Emistim-S”, “Vympel”, “Ivin”, “Zircon Maxi”, “Epin”. They contain humic acids or other substances that can stimulate plant processes.
"Energen" is a modern growth stimulant that can be used for basic pre-sowing or pre-planting treatment of seeds and plants in the garden. It is produced in small-volume capsules and has a low consumption rate, so it is beneficial for use in private households. "Energen" increases the speed of plant processes, helps plants recover from exposure to frost, moisture deficiency, enhances the survival rate of seedlings and seedlings, helps them take root faster after planting and replanting, seed germination and germination are accelerated.
Plants treated with a stimulant at an early age produce a more abundant harvest, the fruits become better quality: they contain more vitamins, and fewer nitrates and other toxic compounds accumulate. Harvest ripening can be expected 1-1.5 weeks earlier than usual. All this makes the drug recommended for use on any garden or garden crops.
