A naturally occurring OsmoProtectant - Wettable Powder
Enhances plant growth during environmental stresses, such as heat, cold, drought, excess moisture and salinity.
For use on vegetables, herbs, grapes, fruit and nut trees, ornamentals, turf, small fruit, hemp, hops, roots and bulbs, potatoes and tropical fruits.
​
Glycine Betaine (96%)
An osmolyte compound; cell osmotic pressure regulator
100% plant origin, extract from sugar beet vinasses (molasses)
​
In plants, glycine betaine acts as a protectant by adjusting the osmotic balance inside the plant cells and tissue. This anti-stress agent helps the plants overcome environmental stress situations, like drought, high and low temperatures and soil salinity.
Ultra soluble - miscible in water with a high regulating power
Persistent translocation within 24 hours, peaks at 3-6 days and then active for 3 - 4 weeks
Systemic cuticle or root penetration and circulation throughout plant
Secure without risk of alteration of enymatic and metabolic reactions
Works by enhancing plant growth during environmental stresses, such as heat, cold, drought, excess moisture and salinity.
Adjusts the osmotic balance inside the plant cells and tissues exposed to hyperosmotic stress and injury.
Mode of Action
Increases the water retention capacity of the plant in situations of abiotic stress.
​
Stabilizes membranes and cellular proteins for integrity of vegetative cells and tissues.
​
Increases the turgidity of the stomata
​
Optimizes CO2 (photosynthesis) and H2O (perspiration) exchanges
​
Promotes the circulation of sap flow and preservation of cellular metabolism
Application:
Apply as a foliar spray to point of wetness.
Use of a non-ionic adjuvant can be used to optimize coverage and penetration into the plant.
Compatible with pesticides and foliar fertilizers in a tank mix (except ones with Copper-Cu), always verify compatibility.
Apply when relative humidity is high enough to allow tissue to remain wet long enough to ensure better uptake by the plant.
Always consider using as a PREVENTATIVE (pre-stress) with your regular fungicidal program including;
