FOLIAR NUTRITIONAL FOR REDUCED FRUIT SHEDDING
GENERAL INFORMATION:
CAL+B is designed to be sprayed on plant foliage to reduce localized ethylene production within the plant. It will also guard against calcium replacement in cell walls. If used at regular intervals, CAL+B will increase fruit, boll, pod, or bud set and reduces internal damage of storage tissue. CAL+B are compatible with most foliar fertilizers.
