Stage-Specific Application Program
Step-by-step, balanced nutrition applications according to the plant's growth stage.
1st Application Period
(After Harvest) - Trunk Application
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Activo (Organic + inorganic acid complex pH reducer)
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Phosforico (0-9-11 phosphite-based)
Purpose of the Application: It is recommended to apply the products with a 15 L capacity backpack sprayer. The part of the plant up to the forked branches (the trunk section) should be applied to the woody tissue of the plant in a washing manner. The aim of the application made to the plant from the trunk is to prevent the blockages that occur in the conducting bundles and to prevent dieback that may occur in the plant.
2nd Application Period
(When the Buds Wake Up)
- 100 L suya / 1000 cc Copperas (5% Copper Sulfate + organic acid + L-amino acids)
- 100 L suya / 250 cc Phosforico (0-9-11 phosphite-based)
Purpose of the Application: With sap flow returning to the plant, the plant will begin to become active for a new production season; the first reaction will be the swelling of the fruit buds. The copper and phosphite ions supplied during this period will strengthen the plant's immune system and it will gain resistance against various fungal diseases.
3rd Application Period
(When the Catkins Form) - Trunk Application
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Activo (Organic + inorganic acid complex pH reducer)
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Phosforico (0-9-11 phosphite-based)
Purpose of the Application: It is recommended to apply the products with a 15 L capacity backpack sprayer. The part of the plant up to the forked branches (the trunk section) should be applied to the woody tissue of the plant in a washing manner. The aim of the application made to the plant from the trunk is to prevent the blockages that occur in the conducting bundles and to prevent dieback that may occur in the plant.
4th Application Period
(July - August) - Trunk Application
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Activo (Organic + inorganic acid complex pH reducer)
- 15 L suya / 500 cc Phosforico (0-9-11 phosphite-based)
Purpose of the Application: It is recommended to apply the products with a 15 L capacity backpack sprayer. The part of the plant up to the forked branches (the trunk section) should be applied to the woody tissue of the plant in a washing manner. The aim of the application made to the plant from the trunk is to prevent the blockages that occur in the conducting bundles and to prevent dieback that may occur in the plant.
