US: Fine Americas introduces new planth growth regulator for greenhouse ornamentals
"We're excited about the addition of Collate™ to our growing line of ornamental plant growth regulators," stated Greg Johnson, president of Fine Americas. "Collate™ offers all the proven benefits of ethephon in a concentrated liquid formulation containing two pounds of active ingredient per gallon. We believe it's the perfect complement to our other floriculture PGRs, including Piccolo® 10 XC, Piccolo®, Configure®, Concise® and Dazide®."
Kevin Forney, technical services manager for Fine Americas, noted that Collate™ offers key benefits in a number of ornamental crops. "It can be used to increase lateral branching in many popular ornamental varieties, including azaleas, chrysanthemums, geraniums, lantana, petunias and verbena. Plus, it's ideal for controlling plant height and stem topple in daffodils and hyacinth. It also should be noted that ethephon, the active ingredient in Collate™, has been a staple of ornamental production for years, so most growers are familiar with how to use it judiciously in their PGR programs."
Available in 4 X 1-gallon containers, Collate™ is manufactured under strict ISO-9001:2008 quality control standards.
