Product_introduction
Plant growth regulator: releases ethylene in the plant body to regulate growth and development
Multi functional:
Ripening: Promote uniform color change of fruits (such as bananas and tomatoes)
Promote leaf shedding: Cotton and other crops shed leaves before mechanical harvesting
Adjusting gender: inducing female flower differentiation in cucumbers and other melons
Increase production: promote rubber tree rubber extrusion
PH dependent: Decomposes and releases ethylene at pH>4
Preparation method:
40% water dilution: 10mL diluted with 8L water → 500ppm solution, optimal activity at 20-30 ℃
Key technologies:
Cotton defoliation: requires the use of thiamethoxam for better results
Fruit ripening: Post harvest processing requires maintaining an environment above 25 ℃
