During the preparation of seedlings and planting plants, additional agrochemical preparations are used to improve seedlings and improve their survival. To date, the most popular are the means that do not violate the ecology and, being natural, retain all useful microflora. With one of such natural means for organic farming called "Energener" you will get acquainted with this article.
Preparation of Energene: composition and properties
Energy is a natural stimulator of plant growth and development. In its composition, active substances are salts of two acids: humic and fulvic, and also contain sulfur, salts of silicic acid, micro- and macro elements.
They produce Energener in two forms:
- 8% solution of 10 ml in flasks with a dropper;
- in capsules of 0.6 g, 20 pieces per pack. They contain easily water-soluble granules, which leave very little residue.
The drug is economical and compatible for use with other pesticides and fertilizers. Contraindications for use are not established.
Properties of the preparation Energene:
- increase the germination rate of seeds and increase their germination to 100%;
- stimulation of plant growth and development;
- increase in survival of planting material;
- protection of plants from unfavorable natural conditions: frost, drought;
- increased resistance to disease;
- reduction of nitrate content;
- increase in the fruits content of vitamins and nutrients and accelerate their maturation for 7-10 days.
Application of Energy
Liquid Energen is used to soak seeds, accelerate the growth of seedlings and as fertilizer when watering plants. The dosage used depends on the type of treatment and on the plant itself:
- Seeds of vegetable crops - the preparation is diluted as follows: 5-10 drops per 50 ml of water and in this solution soaked to 10 g. seeds of tomatoes for 4 hours, and cucumbers and cabbage - for 6-10 hours.
- Tubers of potatoes and corms of flowers - sprinkle with the solution before planting, diluting 10 ml in 0.5 l of water.
- Seedlings of vegetable crops - treated with a solution (5 ml per 3 liters of water), using 3 liters per 100 m2. To increase survival rate when transplanting in water for irrigation on 10 liters dilute 5 ml of the drug.
- Seedlings of flowers - to stimulate growth, sprinkle 10 liters of solution (1.5 ml per 10 liters of water) of planting on a plot of 100 m2. When transplanting add to water for irrigation, diluting 5 ml per 10 liters.
Energene in capsules is used more as a fertilizer, which is added to water for irrigation and spraying. For faster dissolution, the capsule should be carefully opened and the granules poured into the water. During the season, plants are usually treated 4-6 times: before and after flowering, with the formation of ovaries and their active growth.
- Watering the seedlings. Dilute 1 capsule in 1 liter of water, and the solution is used for watering 2.5 m2. The first treatment - when the first real leaf will grow, then after 10-14 days.
- Spraying vegetables and flowers. 1 capsule is diluted in 1 liter of water, which is sprayed with an area of 40 m2.
- Sprinkling apples, cherries and strawberries. Dilute 3 capsules in 10 liters of water, and this solution is sprayed with plants that occupy 100
m2 of land.
Using this drug on the backyard, you can notice that he additionally:
- improves the structure of the soil, reducing its acidity and making it more friable, water- and air-permeable;
- activates the work of soil microorganisms;
- increases soil moisture saturation;
- enhances the exchange of desired elements between plants and soil;
- changes the structure of water, making it close to thawed;
- reduces the need for fertilizers in plants;
- promotes the assimilation of nitrogen and phosphorus by plants.
The preparation Energen showed good and stable results when used in suburban areas when growing vegetables, cereals, fruit trees and flowers.
