Application methods
- for seed, foliar and root treatment, soil fertilizing;
- for watering furrows, tree holes, for soaking seedlings, stalks, roots, bulbs;
- for spraying by all kinds of sprayers, sprinkling machines and in drip irrigation (the filter size bigger than 50 mc) with water of any hardness;
- with any weed and pest killers, macro and micro fertilizers.
Application rates
BIO-GEL organic fertilizer has no restrictions on its application, it is compatible with any preparations and application technologies. The only thing to keep in mind is::
- 1. Seed treatment: the rate is 2 l per ton of seeds (about 10 l water), it should be added after all protectants have been introduced;
- 2. Spraying plants: BIO-GEL should be added to tank mixture, the rate being 1.5 l/ha, after all other components have been introduced and stirred. To save money we recommend reducing the dose of herbicide by 20-30%, fungicide – by 20-30%, and completely abandoning potassium and sodium humates.
- 3. Fertigation (using fertilizers in drip irrigation): the rate is 2 l/ha 2-3 times during the vegetation period.
The quality of water, including its high mineralization, does not matter.
Note: BIO-GEL acts as a biological stimulant and an adjuvant (reactant intensifier), so a significant increase in recommended doses can lead to increased nitrogen removal from soils due to over-rapid growth of plants. In this case nitrogen fertilizers should be applied, for example, 0.5 kg carbamide per hectare.
Recommended rates depending on the crop and application method
| CROP | TIMING OF APPLICATION | RECOMMENDATIONS | RATES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cereals, legumes, sunflower, millet, buckwheat, maize, rape, industrial crops, etc | seed treatment | spraying | 1,0-2,0 l/t per 10 l water |
| Potatoes | bulb treatment | soaking for 2-4 hour | 50-100 ml per 10 l water |
| Vegetables | pre-sowing seed treatment ---- seedlings |
spraying ---- soaking for 4-8 hour |
2,0 l/t per 10 l water ---- 50 ml per 10 l water |
| Fruit trees, berry bushes, grapes | saplings, stalks | soaking for 12-24 hour | 50-100 ml per 10 l water |
| Cereals, legumes, sunflower, millet, buckwheat, maize, rape, industrial crops, etc | foliar application | treatment in the phase of 3-4 leaves, early tillering, booting and milky-wax ripeness | 1,0-2,0 l/ha |
| Vegetables | foliar application | treatment after transplanting, during flowering and fruit formation | 1,5-2,5 l/ha |
| Fruit trees, berry bushes, grapes | foliar application | treatment before and after flowering | 2,0-3,0 l/ha |
| Vegetables, maize | fertigation | during the whole vegetation period | 200-300 ml per 1 km / drops |
Effect
- better germination, higher germinating capacity, uniformity of germination;
- natural improvement of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous nutrition;
- enhancing plant immunity to fungal and bacterial diseases;
- natural adaptogen (antidepressant), protection against chemical stress, drought, late frosts, temperature difference;
- 8-30% higher yields (organic fertilizer);
- Improved soil structure, restored soil fertility.
