Agriventure Ethephon 39% SL – Plant Growth Regulator for Controlled Ripening & Development

Description

About Product

• Ethephon 39% SL is a plant growth regulator that contains 39% ethephon, a chemical that releases ethylene within plant tissues to promote various growth processes, including fruit ripening, uniform flowering, and fruit abscission. 
• It is a water-soluble liquid used in crops like mango, tomato, cotton, and coffee to improve crop quality, yield, and post-harvest treatment.  

Technical Content

• Ethephon 39% SL

Features

• Fruit Ripening: Accelerates and promotes uniform ripening of fruits, improving color and quality,
• Flowering Induction: Stimulates flowering in various fruit trees and ornamental plants. 
• Defoliation: Induces leaf shedding, which can improve flowering and fruit yield. 
• Alternate Bearing: Controls the alternate bearing tendency in mango trees, helping to ensure more consistent yields. 
• Latex Flow: Increases latex flow in rubber plants. 
• Post-Harvest Treatment: Can be used as a post-harvest treatment to enhance fruit quality. 

Mode of Action

• Ethephon is a plant growth regulator that functions as a chemical precursor to ethylene, a natural plant hormone.
• When applied to plants, ethephon is absorbed and then breaks down into ethylene.
• Ethylene triggers and controls various plant processes, including ripening, senescence (aging), and abscission (shedding of parts).

Dosage

• 15 ml in 15 litter water

Method Of Application

• Fruits: Enhances ripening and flowering in mangoes, pineapples, tomatoes, and pomegranates.
• Cotton: Improves ripening and defoliation.
• Coffee: Promotes uniform berry ripening.
• Ornamentals: Induces flowering in plants like chrysanthemums and poinsettias.
• Rubber: Increases latex production.
