Growth 20b B1

GROWTH B&B is a liquid fertilizer made from blood and bone. It is designed as a total replacement, one step fertilizer containing: 1.

A balanced supply of the major nutrients N, P, K (10 – 4 – 7) all readily plant available. This formulation is derived from the process of converting blood and bone into a liquid suspension. Blood and bone has always been known for its effectiveness as a ground applied solid fertiliser. In its liquid form blood & Bone makes these major nutrients available through both the leaves and roots. Not only is it more convenient as a liquid but by foliar application or fertigation the amount applied can he fine tuned to the various needs of different crops.

2.

Organic matter from blood and bone including amino acids, albumin, globulin, cholesterol and calcium.

3.

A carefully balanced formulation of all the essential trace elements and minerals.

4.

Two natural growth promotants, Tricontanol and Gibberellic Acid.

TRIACONTANOL - TRIA

GA is widely distributed in all plants and is shown as C19H2206. It is often used by horticulturists, on its own, to assist with the development and improvement of certain aspects of growing. For example stimulation of flowering, berry set and quality improvements. As a contribution to the efficacy of GROWTH B&B, its broad action is to aid in the growth of cell size and stimulate the plant to take up and use the nutrients provided.

Of particular interest to growers will be the positive effect on crop quality, yields and the Brix/Acid ratio. Several physiological effects have been observed, including rapidly increased levels of reducing sugars, free amino acids and soluble protein. There is a consistent increase in the Nitrogen content of plant samples and in the redistribution of Nitrogen within plants. Also evident are increases in carbohydrate synthesis resulting from stimulation of photosynthesis, and changes in the activity of several enzymes have been recorded. These factors will make a significant contribution to flavour, appearance and keeping qualities for all crops treated with GROWTH B&B.

ORGANIC BASED FERTILISER

TRIA is a carbon straight-chain fatty alcohol and occurs in certain waxes and in the foliage of some plants. It is shown as CH3(CH2)28CH20. Its effect on stimulating plant growth and crop yields by increasing the growth in the number of cells, has been studied extensively in the United States, China, Japan and India. TRIA has been shown to have beneficial effects toward improving the quality of fruit and crops as well as enhancing plant health, vigour and root development. TRIA is also particularly helpful to plants that are under stress from transplanting or adverse climatic conditions.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS The application rates detailed below may be varied according to soil fertility levels, fertiliser history, location, climate and the requirements of any farm or crop. Growth B&B mixes well with most spray chemicals, but ALWAYS TEST FOR COMPATABILITY FIRST. For further advice contact Agriforce Direct Marketing Pty Ltd on FREECALL 1800 440438 APPLICATION COTTON

Premix a solution of 1: 200 and spray to runoff. Repeat every 7 - 10 days. Combine with insecticide and fungicide sprays. Growth B&B will mix well with most chemical sprays and act as an effective sticker / spreader. Applied as split dressings within a regular spray programme or 1:200 as often as convenient. 10 Litres each, at start and end of tillering (with herbicide) and 10 Litres at ear emergence. With regular spray programme, up to 9 times.

Apply spring or autumn, or half rates as a booster. Dilution. Aerial spray 1:1. 10 - 20 Groundspray - mix with a convenient amount of water to 10 - 15 ensure an even spread. The presence of rain or dew is beneficial. Growth B&B acts as a sticker / spreader and is effective with herbcide sprays. ALWAYS TEST FOR COMPATABILITY. Moisten soil then apply a 1:250 dilution to the immediate SOWING SEED seedbed area. Foliar spray 10 days after emergence, then repeat as above.

Overnight soak or drench with 1:250 dilution. Charge diluter or feed tank with a 1:10 dilution and adjust the feed rate to achieve desired CF (conductivity factor) N.B. 5mls of concentrate in 1 litre of water will yield about CF 20. (i.e. 1:200 dilution equals CF 20). Alternatively add Growth B&B into feed tank as a booster at the rate of 1 litre into 100 litres of liquid feed concentrate. Mix at the rate of 50ml per 10 litres of water and spray to run off.

A balanced NPK of 10-4-7 plus minerals and trace elements results in healthy, strong growth, improved yields and quality. Made from organic blood and bone. Contains two naturally occurring growth promotants that stimulate plants to take up and use all the available nutrients again in a balanced form. As a liquid it more effectively addresses mineral and trace element deficiencies or imbalances and acts as a carrier for the addition of extra elements when needed. Early application aids in more rapid establishment of healthy plants resulting in improved yield and quality. Ideal in overcoming waterlogging stress. Being an organic liquid suspension GROWTH B&B will not leach or wash away under heavy rain or irrigation avoiding waste and environmental damage. Further economy of application by applying GROWTH B&B with existing spraying programme. Very safe to use. GROWTH B&B will not burn or damage tender plants or seedlings when used according to directions. Achieves rapid stress recovery after transplanting or adverse climatic conditions. Shipped in highly concentrated form adding water as the carrier at the point of application, results in substantial freight and application cost savings. Higher yields and improved quality results in greater returns for the grower. Can be applied by both ground rig or by air. Convenient to use liquid. Packaged in 5L, 20L and 200L containers.
