Green On®
Active
Targeted improvement of fruit - harvesting the best quality
As a foliar fertilizer, Green On® Aktiv provides targeted support for fruit development in fruit, fruiting vegetables and head-forming vegetables to efficiently prevent calcium deficiency. The highly effective Green On® Aktiv also contains the trace elements manganese, zinc and copper as stable chelates bound with the amino acid glycine (MicroGo technology). In combination with the amino acid glycine, this strengthens leaf activity for more photosynthesis and leaf health as well as tolerance to intense sunlight and drought. All ingredients of the water-soluble MicroGo chelates are fully available to the plant and help the plants to make better use of their growth and yield potential. The nutrients are absorbed very quickly via the leaf and distributed in the plant so that they can develop their full effect.
This is the effect of Green On® Active:
- Improves fruit firmness, transport and storage stability and maintains the freshness of the crop.
- It can prevent stippling, blossom end rot, skin cracking, corking, fruit bursting, inner leaf necrosis and Botrytis infestation by strengthening the cell walls.
- Maintains the vitality of the leaf apparatus and contributes to the nutrient supply of leaf and flower buds in the following year (frost, cold, heat, drought).
Effect – Combination is the key!
Green On® Active provides special crops with calcium and the micronutrients manganese, zinc, copper and boron in a targeted and efficient manner during critical growth phases, in a balanced ratio to each other. This ensures that the crop is optimally supplied during fruit development.
The yield potential of the crops is better exploited with the precise combination of Green On® products. The increased tolerance to frost, cold, heat, drought and intensive radiation also contributes to this. Ensure high crop yields and quality in a targeted manner.
We recommend application at the appropriate growth stage for each crop. The combination of Green On® Active with Green On® Start or Green On® Vital provides you with the perfect solution for optimum nutrition of your crop. Find out more about the application here.
The result: more growth, vitality and yield.
