BACTOLiVE® TUBER
BACTOLiVE® TUBER is a biostimulant specifically developed for treatment of tubers and bulbs of plants, such as potatoes, onions, garlic, tulips etc.
BACTOLiVE® TUBER contains very high concentrations of beneficial soil microorganisms (Bacillus spp., Trichoderma harzianum, Azospirillum spp., Pseudomonas spp.) as well as extracts of algae. The ingredients stimulate early root development, improve nutrient uptake efficiency. The application of BACTOLiVE TUBER results in more even plant establishment, more homogenous tuber size and higher and healthier yields.
Use BACTOLiVE® TUBER for treatment of potato tubers at 125 g / ha (commonly 2 – 2.5 t/ha tubers)
Use BACTOLiVE® TUBER for treatment of bulbs (e.g. onions) at 125 g / 100.000 bulbs.
Methods of application:
- Spray treatment during planting: 125 g are dissolved in 80 L water and sprayed per ha on tubers during planting in a spray treatment procedure.
- Spray treatment before planting: with ULV spray procedure, 50 g are dissolved in 1 L water and sprayed per ton potato tuber on treatment belt.
- Dip-treatment before planting: up to 14 days before planting dip into solution of 0.1% (1 g/L) for about 20-30 min. – then dry on air before planting
- For bulb treatment of onions, garlic, flowers etc.: dip bulbs in 0.1% solution (1 g / L water) for about 20-30 minutes, dry bulbs at air before planting.
Potato tubers are more homogenous and bring more yield when planting material is treated with BACTOLiVE® TUBER
Bulbs of onions, garlic and flowers are best dipped into solution of 0.1% BACTOLiVE® TUBER
