Applications
Vegetables
Algifol™ applied to seedlings prior to planting out will help to reduce transplanting
shock getting the plant off to a healthy start. Algifol™ can be applied by diluting 1 litre
in up to 1000 litres of water or as much is necessary to treat sufficient plants for 1 hectare.
The root system is greatly improved which helps the uptake of essential nutrients and soil moisture.
This gives a better survival rate in dry or unfavourable conditions and added frost protection in
early planted crops.
To keep plants healthy through the growing season 1 litre of Algifol™ per hectare applied 2
to 3 times with other pesticides or fungicides is proven to improve the synergistic effects and help
build up immunity against pest and disease attacks. As with other crops Algifol™ also boosts
yields whilst maintaining a top quality product with the added bonus of improved taste and a longer
self life, which is more important with fresh vegetables.
Algifol™ is very safe to use right up to harvesting making it very useful in short growing
cycles as there is no harvest interval required.
Algifol™ is used around the world on various different vegetables with exceptional and
consistent results every year, in our opinion thousands of growers can’t be wrong.
Fruit
Algifol™ can be used as a root drench on new plants to help reduce transplant shock and
encouraging early root growth for better nutrient uptake producing healthy plants for the whole
growing season.
Algifol™ Applied at 1 litre per hectare throughout the growing season at up to 4 times is
recommended depending on the length of the season. On fruit trees 0.5 litre can be applied up to 8
times per hectare, this is possible by adding Algifol™ to other fungicides as mentioned before.
This little and often approach helps to maintain the plants natural defences against pest and disease
attacks, as with vegetables the synergistic effects are improved.
Algifol™ requires no harvest interval which is very useful on all fruits.
Tests prove Algifol™ not only increases yield and quality but can have an effect on taste and
aroma as well as extended self life.
