Epin, Epin-extra

About epin and epin-extra

provides:

Accelerated seed germination;
- rooting of seedlings during picking and transplanting;
- acceleration of ripening and increase in productivity;
- protection of plants from frosts and other unfavorable conditions;
- increasing resistance to late blight, perronosporosis, scab, bacteriosis and fusarium;
- revival of weakened and rejuvenation of old plants by stimulating lateral shoot formation;
- reduction in the amount of toxins, heavy metals, radionuclides, excess nitrates in the plant.

therefore it is especially indicated for:

frost,
- flooding,
- invasion of pests, etc.;

those. it is indicated in any stressful situations for plants, it is especially effective in early treatment of plants, for example, before transplanting seedlings.

peculiarities:

Decomposes in the light, so you should store epin in the dark.
- decomposes in an alkaline environment, so use clean boiled water to obtain a solution or acidify it with a spoon boric acid or vinegar.
- well absorbed (assimilated) by the plant even with partial processing of the plant.
- disintegrates in the plant for about 14 days, so it is useless to carry out treatments more often.

Using Epina-extra

usually 1 ml(1 ampoule) epina-extra on 5 l water
1 ampoule - 1 ml or about 40 drops

seeds vegetable crops soak in a solution of Epin-extra (1-2 drops per 100 ml of water for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants) for 18-20 hours at + 20C.
- Seeds of flower crops 4 drops of Epina-extra per 100 ml of water for 18-20 hours.
- Flower bulbs and cuttings are soaked before planting in a solution of Epin-extra (1 ml per 2 liters of water) for 24 and 12 hours, respectively.
- Potato tubers are sprayed before planting (1 ml per 250 ml of water per 50 kg of potatoes).

1 ml of Epin-extra is dissolved in 5 liters of water and mixed thoroughly.
Spraying is carried out evenly wetting the leaves.
The working solution is used on the day of preparation. DO NOT allow alkaline environment!

Seedlings - spraying with a solution of Epin-extra (5-6 drops per 0.5 l of water) in the phase of 2-3 true leaves and on the eve of transplantation;

Potatoes, tomatoes - budding - the beginning of flowering;
- root crops - by seedlings;
- cucumbers - 2-3 real leaves with a repetition in the budding phase;
- peppers - at the beginning of budding with a repetition in the flowering phase;
- tulips - when buds appear;
- fruit and berry - in the budding phase with a repetition after 20 days; (Consumption is 2-5 liters of solution for a young tree and 5-8 liters of solution for an adult tree);
- under stressful growing conditions (lack of light, frost, onset of diseases, etc.), spraying is carried out every 7-10 days until the plants recover.

Zircon

The action of zircon

When soaking seeds, it increases their germination energy and germination, activates growth processes and increases plant biomass, increases yield, yield of mature seeds.
Zircon increases the penetration of water through the shell of seeds with a strong shell by 2.5 times.
As a result, seedlings High Quality with a strong root system.

However, it should be borne in mind that zircon acts more harshly than epin, so dosages should be minimal, they should not be exceeded.

It is a root formation stimulator (and increases their volume up to 300%), can be used together with heteroauxin for rooting cuttings.
Allows you to effectively root cuttings of sakura, almonds, lilacs, felted cherries, barberries, roses, clematis, conifers (conic spruce, thuja, cypress, juniper), currants, clone rootstocks.
Accelerates the growth of roots and aerial parts of larch and pine seedlings.

It is a flowering inducer - it accelerates flowering and counteracts shedding of ovaries. In chrysanthemums, I increased the number of open flower baskets by 2-3 times. At the rose, it accelerated the start of flowering by 10 days;
- zircon slows down the aging of cut flowers;
- effective against shedding of ovaries;
- exhibits anti-stress activity:

when transplanting:

reduces transpiration, increases water absorption and nutrients, increases the efficiency of photosynthesis, the survival rate and growth of transplanted plants after treatment with zircon is much higher than that of the control ones. In drought conditions, it has an adaptogenic effect. in plants treated with zircon, the photosynthetic potential increases, the leaf surface and the total biomass increase.
- has fungicidal and partly antiviral properties, there is no addiction to the drug. Effective against powdery mildew, reduces infection with downy mildew by 20-60%.

Differences between zircon and epin

Zircon - root formation, flowering induction, protection against viruses;
- Epin-extra - resistance to diseases and adverse conditions;
- unlike epin, an overdose of zircon should not be allowed, it is better to have a lower dosage, but more often;
- unlike epin, zircon is absorbed and utilized by the plant in just 18 hours, and not 14 days, like epin;
- unlike epin, the whole plant must be carefully treated with zircon, since zircon moves slowly through the plant, and epin - quickly;
- unlike epin, zircon is absorbed by the roots, so you can water the ground or the planting hole with its solution.

The use of zircon

Better less dosage but more frequent treatment. Do not overdose!

usually 1 ml (1 ampoule) per 10 (or more) liters of water
1 capsule - 1 ml or about 40 drops

Application features

Although hydrocinnamic acids filter ultraviolet rays and are even used in sunscreens for humans, zircon is also unstable in the light, so store it in a dark place and spray plants only in the morning or evening.

Pre-sowing and pre-planting treatment

Vegetable seeds are soaked in Zircon solution (1-2 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.
- before planting, the cuttings are soaked in a solution of Zircon (1 ml per 1 liter of water) for 14 hours. To increase the effectiveness of heteroauxin when rooting cuttings, plants are treated jointly with Zircon (1 ampoule per 1 liter of water) and heteroauxin (200 mg per 1 liter of water).
- Bulbs and corms of flower crops are soaked for 20-22 hours before planting in a solution of Zircon (0.5-1 ml of Zircon per 1 liter of water).

Spraying vegetative plants

1 ml of Zircon is dissolved in 10 liters of water and mixed thoroughly. Spraying is carried out evenly wetting the leaves.
- For fruit and berry crops, spraying is carried out in the budding phase;
- For vegetable crops, spraying is carried out before the formation of fruits;
- Potatoes: to prepare a working solution, 0.1 ml (4 drops) Zircon is dissolved in 3 liters of water.
Spraying of plants is carried out in the phase of full shoots and at the beginning of budding.
- Flower-decorative crops. To accelerate flowering, 1 ml of Zircon is dissolved in 1 liter of water.
Spraying of plants is carried out before the formation of buds.

Approximate scheme for using Epin and Zircon

Pre-sowing and pre-planting treatment

Zircon increases the penetration of water through the shell of seeds with a strong shell by 2.5 times.
- Seeds of vegetable crops are soaked in a solution of Zircon (1-2, maximum 3 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.
- Seeds of ornamental crops are soaked in Zircon solution (maximum 4 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.
- Bulbs and corms of flower crops are soaked for 20-22 hours before planting in a solution of Zircon (0.5 ml of Zircon per 1 liter of water).
Seedling
- spraying in the phase of 2-3 true leaves with a solution of Epin-extra (5-6 drops per 0.5 l of water);
- fungal diseases of seedlings (black leg, etc.) - shed the earth (the roots absorb zircon) with a solution of zircon under the root (4 drops per 100 ml of water) and sprinkle the leaves (2 drops per 100 ml of water);
- before picking:
spraying with a solution of Epin-extra (2-3 drops per 100 ml of boiled water) is carried out several hours before picking;
- disembarkation at open ground:
spraying with a solution of zircon (2-3 drops per 1 liter of boiled water) 1 day before or after planting in the ground. For strong plants, 4-5 drops of zircon per 1 liter of water can be used.

vegetables:

Potato tubers are sprayed with epin-extra 1 day before planting - 7-8 drops per 250 ml of water, it is not necessary to turn the tubers over.
- During the budding period, we use zircon as a flowering inducer 1 ml per 10 liters of water spraying treatment of vegetative plants;
- In the flowering phase, spray with epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water;
- Frosts are expected; spray epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water;
- Resuscitation of plants zircon plus cytovit 1 ml per 10 liters of water;
- cold drought, sunburn sprayed with zircon. Especially important for conifers, it protects conifers from ultraviolet rays - 1 ml per 10 liters of water. Used in the morning or evening. It should be repeated 4 times in 7-10 days. When the soil thaws, it is good to spill it with this solution.

epin treatment (in cold weather) increases potato yield by 20%,
processing with zircon in dry, hot weather increases the yield of potatoes by 68%. fungal diseases

At the first sign, zircon is sprayed with 1.5 ml per 10 liters of water.
- with phytophthora, epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water is more indicated;
It should be remembered that zircon is absorbed and utilized by the plant in just 18 hours, while epin takes 14 days.

cuttings

soaking in zircon is used, for different cultures the maximum efficiency is achieved for a concentration of 0.1 ml (4 drops) per 1 liter to 1.0 ml per 1 liter of water.
You can not exceed the concentration, otherwise the zircon will not work;
You can add heteroauxin 200 mg per 1 liter of water.

landing, transfer

When planting, especially conifers, soak the roots in a mash with a solution of zircon plus cytovit 1 ml per 10 liters of water and sprinkle the crown with a solution; when planting a seedling of 2-3-year-olds, pour a solution of zircon (1.5 ml per 10-12 liters of water) into the planting pit.
It is better to do less concentration, but to process more often;
after a week, sprinkle with epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water;

Flowers

Epinom-extra or zircon are used, although zircon is preferable, because. is a flowering inducer, used before the bud formation phase.
Roses can be sprayed in late autumn (November) with zircon in a very low concentration: 1 ml per 25 liters of water.
Protection against viruses - zircon;

Gooseberry

Gooseberry cuttings - zircon, heteroauxin can be added.
Kornevin or indoleacetic acid with zircon cannot be used!

Some feedback on the use of epin

1. Room lemon began to dry out. Sprayed several times with Epin's solution. The leaves came to life, growth began.

2. I put a few cut carnations in a vase with Epin (2 drops per 1 liter of water), and other carnations in a vase with water without Epin. The leaves in the solution with Epin remained fresh on the 9th day and the flowers were also fresh, and the leaves in the water without Epin turned yellow, the petals of the carnations fell off. Farhad. Branch manager.

3. I have been using Epin for five years now. It helps to grow organic vegetables and fruits.
It is also effective on flowers.
To obtain seedlings, I soak overnight in Epin (1 drop per 1/4 cup of water, always boiled). If the seeds are substandard (3 drops in 1/4 cup of water). I process seedlings before picking (3 drops per 1/2 cup of water), and then in the budding phase 8-10 drops per 1 liter of water.
I process roses 3-4 times per season.
1st (after removal winter shelter),
2nd 1 ampoule for 5 liters of water,
3rd 1 ampoule per 3 liters of water.
4th a week before the winter shelter (there was no fallout from frost).
Unexpectedly, I met with his power to revive dead plants. The 20-year-old rose "Flamentants" (Dance of fire) died. There were only 2 pitiful shoots left from the huge bush, 2 buds on each, and a small side root from the root. I took the spine, bathed it in Epin's solution, wrapped it in a canvas cloth soaked in the same solution, and kept it for 2 days. Planted and spud with her head. And a month later, in May, I got bored and saw 4 weak, but living shoots.
Since then, my rose has adorned my garden again, even better than before. Rejuvenated, whips up to 3.5 m. Blooms profusely.
And for other flowers - Epin is a friend and healer. I treat them with Epin - (5 drops per 100 ml of water).

Regarding epin, you can give such advice - three to four repeated treatments in 7-10 days. There are three such cycles during the growing season.
One spring - to facilitate the exit from winter, regeneration of the crown.
The second is summer, during the period of maximum stress, summer drought or other natural tricks for which our nature is generous.
The third - at the very end of the growing season (September-October) to stimulate the transition to rest.
Use a low concentration for treatments. For herbaceous - those same 5-liter ampoule. For bushes, trees and conifers, it can be increased by two to three times (2 liter ampoule).
It is very good to combine epin with foliar top dressing. It is only necessary to ensure that the fertilizer solution does not have an alkaline reaction, epin does not tolerate it.

What to choose epin or zircon?

Comparing these drugs, it becomes clear that their action differs primarily in the intensity of the impact.
When treating with epin, there is a very small chance of harming the plant, more often the drug becomes useless if used in bright light, if treatments are carried out more than once every 1-2 weeks.
Zircon, unlike epin, can be used not only for spraying and soaking, but for root watering.
In stressful situations in the form of drought or lack of lighting, exposure to low temperatures, it is more advisable to use epin-extra. As a prevention of diseases and the impact of these very stressful effects of adverse conditions, it is also better to use epin. For faster rooting of plants that take root quite easily, it is also worth using epin.
It is better to process zircon in cases where there was no epin in the store, as well as if there are already signs of a disease, such as powdery mildew, wilting for unknown reasons, spots of unknown origin (blackening along the edge of the leaf or just spots on the leaves), discoloration of flowers (in the form of stains or circles), as well as changes in the color of the leaves without visible damage and tissue death.
Zircon should be used when rooting cuttings that are difficult to root or when dividing a bush (plants that reproduce only by division and / or spores and seeds often suffer painful root damage).
Zircon is much more effective than epin in increasing flowering and fruit formation. This can be used, for example, when harvesting citrus fruits.
Epin is absorbed by the plant within 7 days, and zircon - immediately.
Therefore, plants can be used more often for resuscitation: Epin once every 7 days, zircon - every 2 days. Zircon gives a better result if used together with cytovit (4 drops of zircon + 8 drops of cytovit per 1 liter of boiled water room temperature). This is absolutely for sick and weak plants.

One more concentration of epin can be exceeded - nothing terrible will happen, in no case should the concentration of zircon be exceeded !!!

Application:
1 ampoule contains 0.25 mg of active ingredient per 1 ml (from 40 to 50 drops) and is designed for 1 spraying of 2-2.5 acres of crops. The solution can be used within 2 days. Epin is destroyed in the light, so it should be stored in the dark. To obtain a solution, you must use clean filtered and boiled water. Epin is destroyed in an alkaline environment, so a few drops of acid (boric, citric, acetic) can be added to the water for the solution. Well absorbed by the plant. The plant disintegrates within 14 days, this should be taken into account when re-treatments.
Soak:
seeds of most vegetable crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, peppers, parsley, onions) in a solution at the rate of 4-6 drops per 100 ml of warm (22-23 ° C) boiled water for 18-24 hours and celery seeds, carrots, beets - 3 drops per 100 ml of water;
seeds of flower crops - 4 drops of Epin-extra per 100 ml of water for 18-20 hours; corms, tubers and cuttings are soaked for 24 hours in a solution at the rate of 1 ampoule per 2 liters of water (3 drops per 100 ml).
Spraying:
seedling shoots - 7 drops per 200 ml of water (for greater cold resistance, plants are treated 2-3 times with an interval of 7-10 days).
. seedlings before picking or planting in the ground for a day or immediately after planting - 7 drops per 100 ml of water.
. potato tubers are sprayed before planting (1 ml per 250 ml of water per 50 kg of potatoes).
. seedlings in open ground with a working solution - 1 ampoule per 5 liters of water (for carrots 5-6 drops per 100 ml of water, beets 4 drops per 100 ml of water).
. shrubs, trees, strawberries in the spring on the first leaves and buds - 1 ampoule per 100 ml of water.
. all fruit and berry and horticultural crops in the phase of budding - flowering - fruit formation until the leaves are completely wet - 1 ampoule per 5 liters of water.
. plants under stressful conditions before and after frost, with strong winds, cold nights, heat, lack of moisture, light, etc. - 1 ampoule per 5 liters of water, for viral, fungal and other diseases, damage, wilting, aphid invasion, Colorado potato beetle, other pests - with a solution of 7 drops per 100 ml every 5-7 days until recovery.
. plants after harvesting a large crop, before the onset of winter - with the main working solution.
Plant processing is carried out in the following phases:
. potatoes, tomatoes - budding - the beginning of flowering;
. root crops - by shoots;
. cucumbers - 2-3 real leaves with a repetition in the budding phase;
. peppers - at the beginning of budding with a repetition in the flowering phase;
. tulips (bulbous) - when buds appear;
. fruit and berry - in the budding phase with a repetition after 20 days; (consumption is 2-5 liters of solution for a young tree and 5-8 liters of solution for an adult tree);
The results of the use of epin
. The seeds germinate faster.
. Seedlings do not stretch, become resistant to frost, drought and disease, take root well when picking and transplanting into open ground.
. Frozen and withered plants are reborn, and old shrubs are rejuvenated and begin to bear fruit again.
. In treated plants, the ovaries do not fall off.
. Burns and phytophthora in plants under the film are excluded.
. The yield increases by at least 1.5 times, it ripens 2 weeks earlier, it is stored longer.
. Heavy metal salts, radionuclides, herbicides are removed from plants and their fruits; the content of nitrates decreases.

Seeds of vegetable crops are soaked in a solution of Zircon (1 - 2 drops of the drug per 300 ml of water) for 8 - 16 hours at room temperature.
Seeds of vegetable crops are soaked in Epin extra solution (1-2 drops per 100 ml of water) for 4-6 hours at t 20°C.
Seeds of most vegetable crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, peppers, parsley, onions) in a solution of epin at the rate of 4-6 drops per 100 ml of warm (22-23 ° C) boiled water for 18-24 hours and celery seeds , carrots, beets - 3 drops per 100 ml of water.

The drug that will be discussed is a godsend for a gardener or florist. This fertilizer for plants perfectly regulates their growth, promotes the fastest rooting, germination of seedlings, promotes budding and stimulates flowering, helps crops to endure the negative impact of many environmental factors. From this article you will learn about what Zircon is and find detailed instructions on its application.

How Zircon works

Zircon is based on hydroxycinnamic acid obtained from echinacea extract and diluted in alcohol. In fact, it is an antioxidant for plants. By absorbing free radicals, it helps the plant to survive.

So, why is Zircon so good:

• the action of the biostimulator is determined at the cell level, does not stress the plant and does not suppress its growth;
• from the inside protects cultures from the influence of heavy metal compounds and radionuclides;
• contributes to the normalization of metabolic processes in green tissues;
• more economical for top dressing - works well even at low doses;
• helps the plant cope with bacterial and fungal diseases, move away faster after the destruction of pests;
• perfectly restores plants in stressful circumstances - frost, drought, waterlogging - these are negative factors.

Instructions for use of the drug Zircon

To stimulate root formation when planting cuttings or seeds of a plant, use a solution of Zircon diluted in water, in the proportion of 1 ampoule per 1 liter of settled / boiled water. Material prepared for planting is lowered into it:

• bulbous plants withstand 1 day;
• layering, cuttings and seeds - 10-12 hours.

It is also recommended to use Zircon for maintenance purposes in a ratio of 1:1000 (1 ml of the drug per 1 liter of boiled water). A well-mixed working solution is sprayed on the leaves and stems of plants. This procedure is recommended to be done until the appearance of buds in decorative and fruit plants and before the formation of fruits in vegetable crops. On potatoes and cucumbers, processing is carried out in the phase of full shoots, but always before flowering.

Preparation Zircon - instructions

To stimulate flowering ornamental plants Zircon is used in the same proportion. Processing is carried out twice: in the spring before the leaves bloom and at the time of budding to bookmark more more colors.

To prevent or combat fungal and bacterial diseases on ornamental flowering plants and shrubs, the biostimulator is mixed with water (1.5 ml per 10 liters of water) and the leaf mass is sprayed with it. Processing is carried out only in dry weather.

seedling application

Soaking seeds prepared for sowing seedlings in a working solution (1 g per 1 liter of water) provides:

1. Improved germination (especially expired seeds) and reduced time to germinate seedlings.
2. Acceleration of growth and development of seedlings (on average, the time for the formation of viable seedlings ready for planting in open ground is 5-10 days shorter).
3. Yield increase by 30-50%.
4. Stimulation of resistance of seedlings to many diseases (such as black leg), return frosts, insufficient levels of humidity and light.

It is possible to use Zircon for stimulating sprays on grown or split seedlings. This procedure contributes to the restoration of the root system and the laying of many fruit buds.

Use for ornamental crops

Zircon is often used by flower growers in the process of growing ornamental garden or indoor plants. Biostimulant is ideal for flowers because:

• accelerates the onset of the flowering period;
• prevents shedding of unblown buds in adverse conditions;
• accelerates the formation of roots on cuttings and transplanted plants;
• prevents rapid withering of inflorescences in the cut;
• stimulates the formation of the necessary protective forces in case of diseases or pest attacks.

The most whimsical home flowers are orchids, which immediately react negatively to poor care, low level humidity, abundant or excessive watering, habitat change, after treatment with Zircon they look healthy and continue to delight the eyes with their exotic flowers.

Often, a biostimulant is used when rooting cuttings of many domestic plants. For soaking cuttings, Zircon is diluted in boiled water in a proportion of approximately 0.5 g per 1 liter. To make it easier and more accurate to measure this amount, you can use a syringe. In the solution of the biostimulant, the cuttings are carried out from 12 to 24 hours before planting. Perhaps the combined use of Zircon and Kornevin.

Safety measures when using Zircon

Zircon belongs to class 4 and is considered a low-hazard substance. It does not harm insects, does not accumulate in the soil and does not poison the water. However, when working with it (for example, spraying), it is still important to observe some safety measures:

• use protective clothing and a mask;
• after finishing the treatment, wash your hands and face with soap;
• sprinkle drops of the spilled drug with dry sand, then collect and discard;
• if the working solution gets into the eyes, it is necessary to first rinse them thoroughly with water, then drip with soda water (1 tsp of soda for 1 liter of water) and rinse thoroughly again.

If you have a burning sensation in the eyes or other discomfort, you should seek medical help.

A Zircon solution spilled on the ground in large quantities can lead to a change in its biological structure. Therefore, this place is sprinkled with dry sand or soil and thrown into the trash with a lump.

The use of the drug Zircon - video

1.Regular observation of landings, namely for their growth, detection of pests, fungi, damage from external factors (weather, animals, humans). In case of detection of pests or viruses and fungal diseases, we recommend contacting specialists. Frequency - once a week.

2.Soil loosening- carried out in order to improve the aeration of the surface of the near-stem areas or the space between planting flowers. Loosening is carried out after watering or rain, as well as during the application of mineral fertilizers. Loosening is shallow 8-10 cm. Most conifers have a well-developed, but superficial root system. Therefore, it is necessary to mulch the soil around the plants with bark, peat, shells pine nuts a layer of 7 cm. Thus, you will protect the plants from drying out and overheating of the roots in summer, as well as rapid freezing and thawing of the soil in winter. Mulching also prevents the development of weeds by decomposing, nourishes the roots and promotes the development of beneficial microorganisms.
3.Carry out weeding of the near-stem circle from weeds and restoring the mulching layer after each watering (before weeding and watering at the root, the upper mulching layer is pushed aside with a rake, then these works are performed and the removed mulching layer is leveled back with a rake so that it does not touch the tree trunk in order to avoid decay). Weeding must be carried out very carefully, without cutting the roots and without breaking the branches of plants. Frequency - as needed, determined visually, or simply aesthetically.
4.Elimination of wilted stems and damaged parts of plants. Plantings should be inspected weekly and wilted, broken branches should be removed in a timely manner. Frequency - as needed.
5.Application of mineral fertilizers and top dressing. Plant growth and development are positively affected organic top dressing(this could be plant land, various composts, peat, manure, chalk, sand) and mineral fertilizers. We recommend applying organic fertilizers in the fall, embedding them into the soil by shallow digging of the surface of the tree trunks. Mineral fertilizers they are applied twice during the growing season, slightly mixing them with the ground: in spring and autumn. You can fertilize with Kemira Autumn fertilizer 35-40g/m2. Distribute the fertilizer evenly under the projection of the crown of the plant, not approaching the bases of the branches or the trunk closer than 15 cm, and loosen the granules into the ground. If the plant is large and the projection area of ​​its crown is several square meters, then the fertilizer is calculated based on the total area of ​​the crown projection, and not on the number of plants.
6.Treatment with growth stimulants- carried out in cloudy calm weather

3. For 5 liters of water - 1 ampoule of epin "Extra" + 1 ampoule of cytovit

* All doses and norms are adjusted by an agronomist and depend on weather conditions and texture soil.
7.Sprinkling- cleaning of needles from dust and dirt, especially in the first year, is carried out by small-drop spraying with water so that the effect of "sprinkling" is created (at sunrise or after sunset or in cloudy weather). Spraying (sprinkling) is carried out five times a week at a daytime temperature of more than 25 degrees for 20 minutes per tree. Spraying is carried out with garden waterers "rocking chairs" or any garden sprinkler.
8. Implementation of watering. Watering is carried out using a watering hose and a sprayer, not with strong pressure, so as not to break the plants. Watering is carried out in the evening. In plants, it is necessary to water the root system for 1-5 minutes. Do not direct a cold jet of water into the barrel. If the soil does not absorb well, repeat watering. Plants planted at the facility no more than a year ago are watered abundantly:
a) in dry hot weather - every other day with a day off Saturday and Sunday;
b) in wet weather, with occasional rains - once a week;
c) in average weather - 2 times a week (Monday/Thursday).

In autumn, when the weather is cool, but dry, it is also necessary to water 10-20 liters under the root once a week, before the onset of sub-zero temperatures. It is very important that the plant leaves with moist soil in the winter.

Norms and frequency of watering.

9. Preparation for winter. In late winter - early spring, conifers suffer from sunburn. Burns appear on the open part of the crown facing the sun, so the plants must be covered. Facade mesh is used as a covering material. (See subsection “Garden Care” “Recommendations for Sheltering coniferous plants on winter period"). In the presence of blackened (rotted) needles, it is necessary to take care measures, such as: removing dead needles and / or whole branches, followed by burning them, and treating the crown with a fungicide solution.

Regulator and adaptogen of a wide spectrum of action, has a strong anti-stress effect, a synthesized analogue of a natural substance. Preparation of the NEST-M company, author Malevannaya N.N.

Epin - a solution of epibrassinolide in alcohol 0.25 g / l, its release has been discontinued.
Epin-extra - a solution of epibrassinolide in alcohol 0.025 g / l.

Although the concentration of epibrassinolide is an order of magnitude lower in epine-extra, it is argued that the effectiveness of the drug is not lower.

It is similar in action to plant phytoharmones - monitors the balance of substances in the plant (homeostasis), is an adaptogen - participates in the synthesis of anti-stress proteins.

Provides:
- accelerated seed germination;
- rooting of seedlings during picking and transplanting;
- acceleration of ripening and increase in productivity;
- protection of plants from frosts and other unfavorable conditions;
- increasing resistance to late blight, perronosporosis, scab, bacteriosis and fusarium;
- revival of weakened and rejuvenation of old plants by stimulating lateral shoot formation;
- reduction in the amount of toxins, heavy metals, radionuclides, excess nitrates in the plant.
Especially indicated for:
- frosts,
- flooding,
- invasion of pests, etc.;
those. it is indicated in any stressful situations for plants, it is especially effective in early treatment of plants, for example, before transplanting seedlings.

Peculiarities:
- is destroyed in the light, so epin should be stored in the dark.
- is destroyed in an alkaline environment, so use clean boiled water to obtain a solution or acidify it with a spoonful of boric acid or vinegar.
- well absorbed (assimilated) by the plant even with partial processing of the plant.
- disintegrates in the plant for about 14 days, so it is useless to carry out treatments more often.

About toxicity:
The natural substance epibrassinolide is non-toxic. It is possible to speak about the purity of the synthesized epibrassinolide, but it is more important to know that epibrassinolide is dissolved in industrial alcohol and mixed with shampoo (for better wetting of the leaves) - these are the components that provide it, so to speak, "harmful".

Using Epina-extra

usually 1 ml (1 ampoule) epina-extra per 5 liters of water

1 ampoule - 1 ml or about 40 drops

- Vegetable seeds soak in a solution of Epin-extra (1-2 drops per 100 ml of water for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants) for 18-20 hours at + 20C.
- Flower seeds 4 drops of Epina-extra per 100 ml of water for 18-20 hours.
- Flower bulbs and the cuttings are soaked before planting in a solution of Epin-extra (1 ml per 2 liters of water) for 24 and 12 hours, respectively.
- Potato tubers sprayed before planting (1 ml per 250 ml of water per 50 kg of potatoes).

1 ml of Epin-extra is dissolved in 5 liters of water and mixed thoroughly. Spraying is carried out evenly wetting the leaves. The working solution is used on the day of preparation. DO NOT allow alkaline environment!

Seedling:

Spraying with a solution of Epin-extra (5-6 drops per 0.5 l of water) in the phase of 2-3 true leaves and on the eve of transplantation;

Plant processing is carried out in the following phases:
- potatoes, tomatoes - budding - beginning of flowering;
- root crops - by seedlings;
- cucumbers - 2-3 real leaves with a repetition in the budding phase;
- peppers - at the beginning of budding with a repetition in the flowering phase;
- tulips - when buds appear;
- fruit and berry - in the budding phase with a repetition after 20 days; (Consumption is 2-5 liters of solution for a young tree and 5-8 liters of solution for an adult tree);

Under stressful growing conditions (lack of light, frost, onset of diseases, etc.), spraying is carried out every 7-10 days until the plants recover.

The drug is practically not dangerous for humans, warm-blooded animals, fish, bees and others. beneficial insects. Does not pollute environment. Hazard class - III (technical ethyl alcohol is used as a solvent with the addition of shampoo for better wettability of the leaf surface).

Shelf life 3 years from the date of manufacture.

Zircon

About zircon

(a.i. hydroxycinnamic acids) - an immunomodulator, root former, flowering inducer - a broad-spectrum drug with a strong fungicidal and anti-stress effect. Normalizes homeostasis (exchange) of plants, protects them from heavy metal pollution. It is made from natural raw materials - Echinacea purpurea. Preparation of the NEST-M company, author Malevannaya N.N.

Zircon is a solution of hydroxycinnamic acids in alcohol 0.1 g/l.

- a multifunctional drug,
- principle of action: not stimulation, but induction,
- there is no stress, there is a launch of the mechanism of work at the cellular level.

Peculiarity: works better at the lowest concentration (1 mg/ha)

The action of zircon

- when soaking seeds increases their germination energy and germination, activates growth processes and increases plant biomass, increases productivity, yield of mature seeds. Zircon increases the penetration of water through the shell of seeds with a strong shell by 2.5 times.
The result is high quality seedlings with a strong root system. However, it should be borne in mind that zircon acts more harshly than epin, so dosages should be minimal, they should not be exceeded.

- is a stimulant of root formation(and increases their volume up to 300%), can be used together with heteroauxin to root cuttings. Allows you to effectively root cuttings of sakura, almonds, lilacs, felted cherries, barberries, roses, clematis, conifers (conic spruce, thuja, cypress, juniper), currants, clone rootstocks. Accelerates the growth of roots and aerial parts of larch and pine seedlings.

- is an inducer of flowering- accelerates flowering and counteracts shedding of ovaries. In chrysanthemums, I increased the number of open flower baskets by 2-3 times. At the rose, it accelerated the start of flowering by 10 days;

- zircon slows down the aging of cut flowers;

- effective against shedding of ovaries;

- exhibits anti-stress activity:
when transplanted: it reduces transpiration, increases the absorption of water and nutrients, increases the efficiency of photosynthesis, the survival rate and growth of transplanted plants after treatment with zircon is significantly higher than control ones. In drought conditions, it has an adaptogenic effect. in plants treated with zircon, the photosynthetic potential increases, the leaf surface and the total biomass increase.

- has fungicidal and partly antiviral properties, the drug is not addictive. Effective against powdery mildew, reduces infection with downy mildew by 20-60%.

Differences between zircon and epin

- Zircon - root formation, flowering induction, protection against viruses;

Epin-extra - resistance to diseases and adverse conditions;

Unlike epin, an overdose of zircon should not be allowed, a lower dosage is better, but more often;

Unlike epin, zircon is absorbed and utilized by the plant in just 18 hours, and not 14 days, like epin;

Unlike epin, the whole plant must be carefully treated with zircon, since zircon moves slowly through the plant, and epin - quickly;

Unlike epin, zircon is absorbed by the roots, so you can water the ground or planting hole with its solution.

The use of zircon

Better less dosage but more frequent treatment. Do not overdose!

Usually 1 ml (1 ampoule) per 10 (or more) liters of water

1 capsule - 1 ml or about 40 drops

Application features
Although hydrocinnamic acids filter ultraviolet rays and are even used in sunscreens for humans, zircon is also unstable in the light, so store it in a dark place and spray plants only in the morning or evening.

Pre-sowing and pre-planting treatment

- Vegetable seeds soak in a solution of Zircon (1-2 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.

- cuttings before planting, soak in a solution of Zircon (1 ml per 1 liter of water) for 14 hours. To increase the effectiveness of heteroauxin when rooting cuttings, plants are treated jointly with Zircon (1 ampoule per 1 liter of water) and heteroauxin (200 mg per 1 liter of water).

Soak for 20-22 hours before planting in a solution of Zircon (0.5-1 ml of Zircon per 1 liter of water).

Spraying vegetative plants

1 ml of Zircon is dissolved in 10 liters of water and mixed thoroughly. Spraying is carried out evenly wetting the leaves.

- For fruit crops spraying is carried out in the budding phase;

- For vegetable crops spraying is carried out before the formation of fruits;

- Potato: to prepare a working solution, 0.1 ml (4 drops) of Zircon is dissolved in 3 liters of water. Spraying of plants is carried out in the phase of full shoots and at the beginning of budding.

- Flower-decorative crops. To accelerate flowering, 1 ml of Zircon is dissolved in 1 liter of water. Spraying of plants is carried out before the formation of buds.

The drug is practically not dangerous for humans, warm-blooded animals, fish, bees and other beneficial insects. Does not pollute the environment. Hazard class - IV (ethyl alcohol is used as a solvent with the addition of shampoo for better wettability of the leaf surface).

Approximate scheme for using Epin and Zircon

Pre-sowing and pre-planting treatment

Zircon increases the penetration of water through the shell of seeds with a strong shell by 2.5 times.

- Vegetable seeds soak in a solution of Zircon (1-2, maximum 3 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.

- Seeds of ornamental crops soak in Zircon solution (maximum 4 drops per 300 ml of water) for 8-18 hours at room temperature.

- Bulbs and corms of flower crops soak for 20-22 hours before planting in a solution of Zircon (0.5 ml of Zircon per 1 liter of water).

Seedling

- spraying in the phase of 2-3 true leaves Epin-extra solution (5-6 drops per 0.5 l of water);

- fungal diseases of seedlings(black leg, etc.) - shed the earth (the roots absorb zircon) with a solution of zircon under the root (4 drops per 100 ml of water) and sprinkle the leaves (2 drops per 100 ml of water);

- before picking: spraying with a solution of Epin-extra (2-3 drops per 100 ml of boiled water) is carried out several hours before picking;

- landing in open ground: spraying with a solution of ???zircon (2-3 drops per 1 liter of boiled water) 1 day before or after planting in the ground. For strong plants, you can use 4-5 drops of ???zircon per 1 liter of water.

Vegetables:

- Potato tubers sprayed with epin-extra 1 day before planting - 7-8 drops per 250 ml of water, it is not necessary to turn the tubers over.

- During the budding period we use zircon as a flowering inducer 1 ml per 10 l of water spraying treatment of vegetative plants;

- In the flowering phase

- Frosts expected sprayed with epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water;

- Resuscitation of plants zircon plus cytovit 1 ml per 10 liters of water;

- Cold drought, sunburn sprayed with zircon. Especially important for conifers, it protects conifers from ultraviolet rays - 1 ml per 10 liters of water. Used in the morning or evening. It should be repeated 4 times in 7-10 days. When the soil thaws, it is good to spill it with this solution.

Treatment with epin (in cold weather) increases the yield of potatoes by 20%, treatment with zircon in dry, hot weather increases the yield of potatoes by 68%.

fungal diseases

At the first sign, zircon is sprayed with 1.5 ml per 10 liters of water.

With phytophthora, epin-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water is more indicated;

It should be remembered that zircon is absorbed and utilized by the plant in just 18 hours, while epin takes 14 days.

cuttings

soaking in zircon is used, for different cultures the maximum efficiency is achieved for a concentration of 0.1 ml (4 drops) per 1 liter to 1.0 ml per 1 liter of water. You can not exceed the concentration, otherwise the zircon will not work;

You can add heteroauxin 200 mg per 1 liter of water. Kornevin or indoleacetic acid with zircon cannot be used!

landing, transfer

When planting, especially conifers, soak the roots in a mash with a solution of zircon plus cytovit 1 ml per 10 liters of water and sprinkle the crown with a solution; when planting a seedling of 2-3-year-olds, pour a solution of zircon (1.5 ml per 10-12 liters of water) into the planting pit.

It is better to do less concentration, but to process more often;

After a week, sprinkle epinom-extra 1 ml per 5 liters of water;

Flowers

Epinom-extra or zircon are used, although zircon is preferable, because. is a flowering inducer, used before the bud formation phase.

Roses can be sprayed in late autumn (November) with zircon in a very low concentration: 1 ml per 25 liters of water.

Protection against viruses - zircon;

Green crops

Presowing treatment - zircon;
- budding phase - zircon 1 ml per 10 l of water

Harvest storage

Use zircon 1 ml per 10 liters of water;

cut flowers

Use zircon 0.5 ml per 1 liter of water;
