Folio Ca - Foliar fertilizer for use when demand for calcium
Folio Ca is an organic foliar fertilizer used in the absence of calcium. Folio Ca is used after a leaf analysis or as a preventative before periods of increasing mineral demand. Such periods are during flowering, fruiting or undergoing strong growth and development.
Folio Ca contains a high concentration of calcium in combination with a dispersant. The dispersant ensures that the mineral has good contact with the leaf surface, and the growth has good opportunity to absorb it. The dispersant is made from plant material and is organically transferable.
To best help the growths out of a mineral deficiency, Folio Ca is added energy in the form of a foliar fertilizer (Pepton). Folio Ca is absorbed into the growths within a few hours and the effect may be visible already on the same day.
Folio Ca is supplied in powder form and should be mixed with water and can be used with other types of foliar fertilizers or pesticides. Folio is dosed at between 50 and 200 grams (dry weight) per day. acres.
Folio is an ecologically approved corrective.
Ready formulated foliar fertilizer for use against calcium deficiency by spraying the foliage in potatoes, fruits and berries. Enhances plant development of buds and leaves. Stimulates the flower, formation and growth of the fruit. Mix in water after desired dosage, by experience, soil or leaf analysis.
General recommendations
Crop
Objective
Recommendation
Apple
For development and colour
3-8 treatments at 10-14 day intervals from petal drop. For better color of the apples treatment when the fruit has begun to change color, often repeated after 7 days, normally 2-3 weeks for harvest.
Potato
Stimulate early growth (1) and increase tuber number (2) and size (3).
(1) Used one week after germination. (2) Used when half of the chair tops are twice as thick as the rest. (3) Two treatments when the tubers are about 10 mm, repeat once after 14 days.
Lettuce on soil
Strengthens growth and development
2-3 treatments starting 10-14 days after planting or germination. Treatment is repeated at 7-10 day intervals.
Cauliflower
Stimulate initial head formation. Especially at low soil temperature in spring / early summer
2 to 3 treatments at the point of growth to initial head formation. Especially at low soil temperature in spring / early summer. Repeats every 7 to 14 days.
Fruit
Stimulate growth and development
2-5 treatments at 7-14 day intervals from petal drop.
