In modern agriculture, along with pesticides and fertilizers, several compounds called plant growth stimulants are important for sustainable crop production. Products include compounds that are applied to crops or soils to improve growth, yield and quality as well as tolerance toward environmental stresses. Although these compounds influence plant growth and development throughout the entire crop life cycle, a summary of their main functions is supplied below.
Organic Acids | |
Alginic acid | Present in seaweed extracts; assist in maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells. |
Amino acids | Increases nutrient uptake by plants and improve overall soil structure and health. |
Humic substances | Present in seaweed extracts; assist in maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells. |
Salicylic acid | Induces flowering and defence responses to environmental stresses. |
Hormones & Bio-stimulants | |
Auxins (IAA) | Promote cell elongation in the stems, root tips and apical buds of plants. |
Cytokinins (CYT) | Promotes growth and development including as embryogenesis, maintenance of roots and shoot meristems and vascular development. |
Gibberellins (GA) | Stimulate stem elongation, seed germination and flowering. |
Abscisic acid (ABA) | Induces stomatal closure when soil water is insufficient, maintaining transpiration. |
Ethylene (ET) | Promotes seed germination, formation of root hairs, crop senescence and fruit ripening. |
Jasmonic acid (JA) | Promotes fruit ripening and tuber formation as well as defence responses to environmental stresses. |
Brassinosteroids (BR) | Optimize crop growth and yield as well as defence responses to environmental stresses. |
Polyamines (PA) | Stimulate root initiation, flower development and tuber formation. |
Other | |
Triacontanol | Optimizes photosynthesis and growth. |
Vitamins | Antioxidants protect crops against oxidative stresses. |
Chitosan | Supports crop growth and production and increases plant pigment concentrations. |
It is recommended that AnnGro be used with Cibusil for better uptake of silicon.
Ethyl Esther of fatty acids: 25g/L
Dosage: 2ml per litre of water in addition to monosilicic acid.
Benefits:
A penetrant formula that significantly enhances uptake and translocation of applied nutrients.
Intercellular release occurs supplying additional energy to plant cells.
Environmentally friendly product.
Anngro can be used with other nutrients. This will improve the uptake of all nutrients in the plant thus encouraging better health and more vigorous growth of the plant.
