Description
Proplex is a unique material, originally developed to de- stress crops it has over many years proved to be an unusually reliable biostimulant product. At first developed for use on high- value fruit and salad crops, both protected and outdoor, in hotter climates. It became an effective tool to encourage earliness, yield and quality when used during the fruiting/flowering stage of growth.
In more recent years it was introduced to broadacre cropping in more temperate climates where it proved successful in helping overcome abiotic (environmental) stress, improving overwintering, and accentuating herbicide activity as well as helping to slow disease ingress and progression. It has been used from young plant stage right up until the later green- stages of many crops, with measurable responses at all timings. ‘Rate for Rate’ it outperforms any other biostimulant.

Crop Types & Application rates:
ProPlex will stimulate rapid growth and early development of both gramineous and broad leaved plants. It will help plants recover from stress, prevent severe damage due to frost or heat, aid plants under moisture stress, and stimulate defence mechanisms in treated plants.
Winter sowings (Cereals and Oil Seed Rape): 1L/ha at 2-3 leaf -Repeat at GS30, then 1 to 2L/ha at GS 51+
Spring sowing (Cereals/OSR/Peas/Beans/Brassica): 1L/ha at 3-5 leaf stage – then 1.5L/ha at GS31/first flower
Top fruit/Grapes/Nuts/Roses/Shrubs: 250ml/100L every 14 days from leaves unfurled
Tomatoes/Cucumbers/Soft fruit/Flowers: 200ml/100L from 5 leaf and every 14 days
Sugar Beet/Potatoes/Carrots: 2L/ha at 5 leaves/tuber initiation, repeat every 14-21 days
Maize: 2.5L/ha at 4/5 leaf stage, repeat just prior to tasselling
Mixing & Spraying:
It has excellent compatibility in tank-mix.
It will benefit other tank-mix partners improving performance; fungicides etc. through plant strengthening.
Compatibility:
ProPlex is compatible with all pesticides, but avoid dinitroanilines, dormant oil, Bordeaux, lime sulphur or other highly alkaline materials.
