Introduction
Normal culture
Chrysanthemums as well as some special culture (all year round)
Chrysanthemums face major problems like vascular plugging, premature
aging and flowering stagnation, reducing ornamental value and vase
life of the flowers.
It is most important
that vascular plugging does not occur because it is the origin of
insufficient water uptake by the flowers. Insufficient water uptake
leads to premature aging of the flowers, showing flaccid leaves and
petals and incomplete flowering. Clean water and the use of Florissant
400C can effectively solve this problem.
Effects
FLORISSANT 400C
suppresses bacterial growth thus preventing vascular plugging and
stimulating the water uptake. Consequently premature shrinking, petal
drop and incomplete flowering are avoided; vase-life is prolonged and
the ornamental value is improved. FLORISSANT 400C may even prevent the
browning of stems due to excessive bacterial growth.
Dosage
Shake the container
before use and add 0.35ml FLORISSANT 400C per liter water. Stir gently
and use the solution for a maximum of 3 days.
Note: Always use
clean buckets and clean tap water. Never mix an old solution with a
fresh one. Avoid any contact of the concentrate and the ready-to-use
solution with unprotected metals.
Treatment
Prepare the
FLORISSANT 400C solution just before harvesting. Place the flowers in
the solution immediately after cutting. Do not use water or chlorine
first. The minimum treatment time is 4 hours. FLORISSANT 400C does not
contain flower food, therefore keep treatment limited to a few days
only.
Packing
FLORISSANT 400C is
available in jerry cans; 4x5 liter per carton.
Precautions
FLORISSANT 400C
should be stored in a dry and dark place. Keep the product cool but
frost-free. Avoid contacts from eyes and skin with the concentrated
product.
FLORISSANT 400C is
manufactured with the greatest care and is kept under constant
laboratory surveillance. The manufacturer cannot be held liable if the
