Growing tomato seedlings for many years, I noticed that the yield of tomatoes largely depends on the quality of the seedlings. The stronger and healthier the seedlings, the better it takes root, the faster it blooms and bears fruit.
It is difficult for weak plants to take root and resist adverse external factors. "Epin" stimulates the growth of seedlings, its development. Its use develops natural resistance to diseases and adverse weather conditions.
The composition of "Epin"
The Epin stimulator is used for seedlings of tomatoes and other plants. Sold in plastic ampoules of 0.25 g, has the form of drops.
The composition of the product contains the plant hormone epibrassinolide, which can increase yield by 10-15%. The cost of the drug is low.
The active substance is dissolved in alcohols. The stimulant adheres well to the leaves, as it contains a component that allows this to be done.
This agent does not replace fertilizers. It does not contain nutrients, does not affect the structure and composition of the soil, but affects the immunity of plants, increasing it, and helps to adapt to external conditions.
Processing tomatoes with Epin helps them to endure bad weather more easily: drought, frost, rain.
How does Epin work?
This substance starts the processes of growth, photosynthesis, flowering in cells. Thanks to Epin, tomato bushes experience less stress during picking, transplanting, take root faster and can survive in adverse weather conditions. During the flowering period, more ovaries appear, the flowers do not fall off.
When to use "Epin"
The need for the use of this drug is caused by a number of indicators. I use it in such cases:
- insufficiently good seedling quality;
- changeable weather conditions;
- genetic predisposition of the variety to certain diseases;
- poor vegetable set;
- low germination of planting material;
- prolonged growth retardation during transplantation;
- shedding of ovaries;
- lagging bushes in development and growth.
How to dilute and apply the drug
There is an instruction on the package, in accordance with which I act. I breed this remedy in such a way as to use everything at a time, since it can be stored for no more than a day.
I use warm soft water. You can melt snow or boiled water. Using a syringe, I measure the required amount and add drops to the water. For seedlings, a small amount of "Epin" is enough, for adult plants I breed more.
The use of a growth stimulator
Indoor seedlings grow in unnatural conditions. With a lack of light, inappropriate air humidity, seedlings experience discomfort. "Epin" helps to cope with the negative. Its use improves the development of plants. Seedlings are less stretched, after picking they take root faster.
When I process seedlings:
- I start processing with Epin at the seed stage. I soak them in the Epin solution for 4-6 hours.
- At the seedling stage, when 2 true leaves appear on the plant, I practice treatment with the drug from the black leg and stretching.
- Before picking tomatoes, I spray the seedlings with a solution of the substance so that it experiences less stress from damage to the roots.
- Before planting in open ground, processing is needed to accelerate survival and get used to new conditions.
- After transplantation, I use the drug to protect against cold snaps, heat and pests.
Thus, this wonderful preparation helps me grow tomato seedlings.
