Production and cultivation of young vegetable and flowering plants
A guide for nurserymen and farmers who produce young plants for horticulture and floriculture, as well as those who will continue their cultivation.
Compact seedlings with intense coloration and a dense root system are often obtained through physiological and chemical forcing. While this approach may satisfy the customer's eye, it compromises the plant’s vital functions, leading to serious issues during subsequent cultivation.
By using BioAksxter® in young plant nurseries, excellent results can be achieved without forcing or altering the plant's primary code. BioAksxter® naturally rebalances and enhances all metabolic functions, offering numerous benefits:
- Improved light absorption reduces the tendency for "etiolation" in low-light periods and prevents sunburn during excessively sunny conditions.
- Increased self-defense mechanisms reduce disease development at the leaf level, root system, and collar.
- Greater resistance to temperature fluctuations ensures steady growth even at lower-than-expected temperatures, leading to cost savings on greenhouse heating.
- Enhanced vitality maximizes success rates in cutting propagation and green grafting.
- The elimination of fertilizer and pesticide residues purifies the plant and prevents low reactivity after transplantation.
Plants treated with BioAksxter® consistently stand out for their uniformity; they feel particularly elastic and resilient to the touch, have broad and firm leaves, dense white roots, and a high development of micro-roots.
During post-nursery cultivation, these plants exhibit significantly faster root establishment, reduced transplant stress, and lower vulnerability to pathogenic attacks, allowing for a noticeable decrease in disease incidence.
Even in cases of stress during transport, delays in transplanting, or temporary substrate dehydration, the plants remain vital and recover from stress in a very short time. In many situations, seedlings that appeared unrecoverable successfully rooted and produced normally.
In young plant nurseries, it is crucial to use BioAksxter® M32 regularly and consistently, applying it every 7–10 days depending on the cycle duration. For particularly short cycles of 14–15 days, at least three treatments are recommended: at emergence, mid-cycle, and 1–2 days before transplanting.
For vegetable plants intended for cultivation in soils affected by severe diseases or for customers requiring highly resistant plants, the use of BioAksxter® M31 is also recommended.
