Blossom-end rot (BER)
Blossom End Rot (BER) is a condition that primarily affects species belonging to the Solanaceae family, such as tomatoes and peppers. The symptoms follow a distinct progression: a black or brown, slightly sunken lesion appears at the blossom end of the fruit, which then extends deeper into the tissue. The affected areas undergo decomposition and become covered with saprophytic fungi, potentially leading to the complete necrosis of the fruit.
BER is typically attributed to physiological causes, particularly calcium deficiency. However, research conducted by Alessandro Mendini has demonstrated that the trigger of this issue has a different origin. It is, in fact, an entomophilous plant disease caused by the egg-laying activity of a parasitic hymenopteran insect.
Within the fruit, higher internal temperatures compared to the external environment facilitate egg hatching. If favorable microclimatic conditions persist, the larva develops into an adult, continuing the infestation cycle.
With BioAksxter®, the innovative magnetic flow fertilizer, the plant activates a defense mechanism based on the emission of frequencies that repel the parasite.
Additionally, by having the necessary energy to strengthen its primary biological functions, the plant avoids autoimmune defense drops and can effectively prevent and reduce diseases of both biotic and abiotic origin. This leads to significant improvements in both quality and yield.
