Pestigas
Safe effective control of insect pests.
Pestigas contains pyrethrums, a group of naturally occurring compounds extracted from the flower of a chrysanthemum daisy.
They are one of the oldest known natural insecticides and have a long history of safe, effective pest control, as well as having an excellent flushing and repelling action.
Pestigas will control a wide range of insects pests,and it's low mammalian toxicity and short residual life make it ideal for use in a wide variety of applications including domestic, commercial, hospitality, quarantine and agriculture.
CO 2 Enrichment
Carbon dioxide, along with water and light, are the basic elements required for food production in plants by the process of photosynthesis.
With adequate water and light, the limiting factor to plant growth is the level of carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is present in the atmosphere at a concentration of approximately 340 parts per million (ppm), but tests have shown that optimum plant growth occurs at an atmospheric CO2 concentration of 1,000 ppm.
Also in a greenhouse situation the normal level of CO2 can be depleted very quickly by actively growing plants.
Very significant increases in yields and plant quality can be achieved by increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the green house atmosphere from a normal concentration of 300 ppm to 1,000 ppm.
These crop improvements can increase the returns on greenhouse production by as much as 60%.
Ethylene Gas / Ripe Gas
Top quality brings top dollar
Why risk bruising, rot and insect damage
Transport your fruit in the green mature stage, when it is more resistant to damage, and then ripen it with ethylene, the product produced naturally by the fruit.
Suitable fruits include bananas, tomatoes, avocados, kiwi fruit, melons, pears and papaws.
Ethylene can also "de-green" ripe green citrus fruit, cure tabacco, induce flowering in pineapples, seedgermination and abscission.
