Pollen Boost

Biological Bloom Enhancer for Increased Fruit Set

Pollen Boost is a pollination promoter that stimulates flower bud differentiation and supplies the necessary nutrients at the time of pollination. It prevents fruit deformation and promotes new shoot development. Pollen Boost contains propolis, which naturally attracts bees to flowers promoting the pollination of crops, and Sargassum spp. seaweed to stimulate production of new flower buds/shoots through auxin-cytokine signaling. Pollen Boost contains macro, secondary and micro nutrients.

Efficacy

  • Effective at improving fruit size and pollen activity.

  • Effective at aiding in new shoot development.

  • Effective at aiding in recuperation after abiotic stress.

Application

Use Pollen Boost during the bloom phase to promote healthy fruit/flower growth and pollination by adding 7.6 mL (1 1/2 tsp.) of product with one gallon (1 gal.) of water to properly dilute, unless otherwise specified in the table below. This product can also be used in other quantities during the plants flowering cycle, respecting the dilution rate of 1:500; product to water. After dilution, use only as a foliar spray 2 to 3 times during the fruiting phase. Do not apply prior to excessive rains, since this may reduce product effectiveness.

Active Ingredients

Pollen Boost contains a blend of necessary macro and minor elements as well as complexing and chelating compounds, seaweed (kelp), and propolis, a bee attractant.

Safety & Environmental Info

Appropriate land management practices should be used at all times with any fertilizer; this material should be prevented from entering public or private water supplies (including wells) and any lake, stream, or river.

Mode of Action

Pollen Boost contains the necessary macro- and micronutrients to aid in pollination of the plant. Phosphorus aids in the ripening and maturation of fruit and potassium promotes cellular growth. The nitrogen enhances the ability for new growth to occur. Pollen Boost maximizes flower and fruit production and encourages new shoot growth by providing bio-stimulants from brown seaweed. Glutamine is classified as an amino acid and improves protein synthesis. Propolis is a natural compound that attracts bees to flowers and enhances the pollination of crops.
