Ground-covering plants

Application technology:

1. Seed or graft pre-treatment. Application rate of the preparation – 50 grams of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.25 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 1 kilo of seeds. Seed treatment (soaking for up to 10-12 hours) by a Lignohumate solution with consumption rate of 3 l per 1 kilo of seeds.While grafting – 0.05% Lignohumate solution concentration (5.0 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.025 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 10 l of water). Planting stock treatment (soaking for up to 10-20 hours) by a Lignohumate solution with a consumption rate of 1 l per 500 grafts. Combination with protectants or bio-preparations is recommended.

2. Watering of seedlings. The preparation is applied at the seedling phase while still in the sprouter or at the moment of planting the seedlings into the open ground: to be added into water or into fertilizer solutions. Lignohumate solution concentration – 0.01% or 10 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.05 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 100 l of watering solution.

3. Foliar dressing during vegetation phase. Lignohumate solution concentration – 0.02% or 20 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.1 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 100 l of water. Standard or low-capacity sprayers can be used. It is recommended to apply Lignohumate in a mixture with bio-preparations and soluble fertilizers.

4. If an irrigation system is used, then the preparation is to be applied with water several times per season. Lignohumate solution concentration – 0.01% or 10 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.05 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 100 l of watering solution. If drip irrigation is used, then the preparation is to be applied at the last or last-but-one watering 1 time each 7-10 days. Lignohumate solution concentration – 0.01% or 10 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.05 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 100 l of watering solution.

Thus, thanks to the above described properties we have:

- better root development and graft/seedling establishment;

- faster ratooning of plants;

- longer blooming periods;

- better crop quality (more intensive colouring of leaves and flowers, increased evenness of crop).

For ground-covering plants it is most preferable to apply a potassium form with addition of a set of microelements.
