Setting a Solid Foundation for Continued Growth and Success
Parka® applications support new plantings by strengthening the cuticle of foliage and young shoots, enhancing the plant’s resistance to heat and moisture stress. This increased resilience boosts photosynthetic activity, optimizes water and nutrient uptake and extends the growth period during this critical phase.
Proven Results
- Increases overall average growth.
- Reduces plant stress.
- Enhances tolerance to environmental stress.
- Slows apex definition, extending the growth period.
- Increases photosynthetic capacity.
- Supports plant health during critical establishment phase.
