Description
Carbo Cal is a calcium and organic acid rich compound designed for both
foliar and drip application. Despite calcium being a traditionally
immobile ion, Carbo Cal is formulated with over 50 chelated organic
acids, all available for rapid uptake and movement within the plant,
improving structural strength, stability and quality. Carbo Cal
provides superior calcium sap levels for fruit quality and disease
resistance and contains no Nitrogen or Chloride. Carbo Cal includes
a number of growth hormones, which aid flowering and increase general
vigour of plants, without creating the vegetative flush created
by Nitrogen. Carbo Cal is an effective source of calcium for plants.
Product Features
- Carbo Cal provides readily absorbed root zone
calcium when ground applied in dripper, trickle or irrigation injection.
- Foliar applications are both safe and effective
in supplementing plant requirements for calcium at peak usage times.
Function
Calcium is critical for. cell wall structure
and strength; lending increased specific gravity; disease resistance
and insect resistance. Post harvest damage can be minimised with sufficient
use of calcium during the growing cycle. Shelf life will be increased
with the correct use of Calcium as part of a balanced crop nutrition
program.
