A successful duo in vegetable seedling production – Sphera and Triash in pickle soaking peppers and tomato.

Dear Producers, a few weeks ago we finished testing our successful duo ? preparations Sphera and Triash? in the production of spring seedlings of tomato and bell pepper. Thus, our tests include not only ornamental plants, but also useful plants, about which we will tell you more in future articles.

The test plants were peppers of the block-type varieties Bogna and Kaskada, and two tomato varieties: the ground dwarf Bohun and the variety dedicated under covers with a continuous growth type Palava. As in the case of surfinia, geranium and impatiens in the previous test, we checked what effect the application of Sphera and Triash would have on plant growth by soaking the seedlings (pickle) in previously prepared working solutions of the preparations. Yes, as we have already mentioned such a method of application in many cases can be much more convenient for growers, and the growth and action of microorganisms will start already at the stage of rooting of seedlings in the production pot.

On April 6, seedlings prepared in the CERES paperpot were soaked in pre-leavened working solutions during planting. The root nuggets were adequately wet, and the soaking lasted only about 2 minutes ? until the nuggets were saturated with the working solution.

As in each of our tests, we established groups of 10 plants each. Representative plants were selected from each group for visual evaluation, and the entire group was evaluated. We checked plant growth, development (phytophenological stages) and overall vigor. In this experiment, too, we tested different combinations of application of preparations. Once again, the best results from the point of view of production economy and effect were obtained with the combined administration of Sphera and Triash products. These two preparations are a really successful duo, not only in the production of ornamental plants, but also in the production of useful plants.

We present the results of the final visual evaluation of the plants.

See for yourself how Sphera and Triash work in bell pepper and tomato seedling production!
