eK-Ion MAX

IMPROVES FRUIT SIZE
STIMULATES ROOT DEVELOPMENT
PROMOTES A BALANCED PLANT GROWTH
IMPROVES COLOUR AND SUGAR CONTENT
ALLOWED IN ORGANIC FARMING

eK-lon MAX is an extract obtained exclusively from a mixture of brown algae. Thanks to the cold extraction process, which preserves all its bioactive compounds, eK-lon MAX can favorably regulate the plant main physiological processes. eK-lon MAX is indeed a source of polysaccharides, alginates, phlorotannins, polyamines and plant growth regulators that trigger, in the treated plants, tissue growth, more intense flowering, fertilization and fruit set and it can elicit plant natural defences.
Regular applications of eK-lon MAX promote a balanced plant growth, improve fruit size, colour and sugar content, and extend the shelf-life. Moreover, eK-lon MAX stimulates the development of the root system, improving plant nutrients' uptake and resistance against water stress conditions.

The above doses refer to the use of spraying volumes of 1000 L/ha (Normal Volumes).
In the case of different volumes, for use with low-volume or volume recovery sprayers, where, for proper wetting of the vegetation, a smaller quantity of water than the Normal Volumes (VN) may be sufficient, it is suggested to refer to the dose of 200-400 gr per hectolitre (gr/hL).

*The choice of the dose is subordinated to various factors and can be varied when necessary. All applications can be repeated in relation to the different crop needs. You can contact our Technical Service for the correct application on specific soils and under specific climate conditions.
