Grape

Features

Gibberellic acid is a plant growth regulator.
Many forms of Gibberellic acids occur naturally in the grapevine.
FALGRO® 20 SP promotes berry thinning and increases berry size.
Reduced cluster compactness achieved with reduced fruit set.
Reduced fruit set allows the development of larger berries.
Berry size increase due to an increase in the size and number of cells in the grape berry.

Do's & Don'ts

Ensure thorough wetting of bunches and enclosed leaves.
Adjust the pH of the spray mixture to between 5.5 and 6.5.
Do not apply to orchards under stress.
Application rate and timing is highly cultivar dependent.
Correct application timing is critical for the success of the treatment.
Certain table grape cultivars show signs of “toxicity” such as an increase in pedicel thickness resulting in loose berries, if applied at higher Gibberellic acid dosage rates.

Usage Rate

Berry thinning:

Apply 16-32 mℓ/100ℓ water FALGRO® 4 SL depending on table grape cultivar and area.

Increased berry size:

Apply 96 mℓ/100ℓ water FALGRO® 4 SL at depending on table grape cultivar and area.
