ORTHAGROW CAL 21% SC 4G is a patented calcium formulation, enriched with zinc (Zn) and boron (B). This unique composition has a very high concentration of active calcium per litre, allowing plants to take up and assimilate calcium faster and so helping to increase yield.
Advantages
- Patented 4G absorption: ensures fast, efficient assimilation.
- Maximum suspension: optimal yield and maximum efficacy per litre.
- Superior quality: guarantees optimal stability and a long shelf life.
- High calcium content: a fortified calcium suspension with an extremely high calcium concentration.
- Nutrient mobility: stimulates the transport of nutrients from the leaves to the developing fruit.
- Fruit development: plays an essential role during the fruit development stage of every crop.
- Cell strengthening: improves both cell division and cell elongation.
- Stronger skin: increases the thickness of the fruit skin.
- Quality & storage: improves overall quality and extends the shelf life of harvested fruit.
