Applications of Plant Growth Regulators
Plant growth regulators are inspired by a class of plant metabolites called plant hormones. They can be extracted from plants or chemically synthesized. Most plant growth processes can be affected by plant growth regulators, such as flowering, fruit formation, ripening, fruit drop, and defoliation. Plant growth regulators are widely used in agriculture and horticulture to obtain specific ...

How seed-placed fertilizer may hurt your crops if not applied carefully and attentively
Placing fertilizer within the seed row has been long-standing practice for many farmers across the prairies. Having those nutrients close to the seed makes it easily accessible by the plant, and can help the crop out of the ground and into the sun. Potash fertilizers and other nutrients, such as phosphate, are immobile fertilizers, meaning they don’t travel more than a half-inch through ...
