Composition:

PH MINUS is a fluid fertilizer used as acidifier and buffer which allows to improve the quality of the water used by foliar spraying and to solve the problems due to water hardness and high value of pH.

Indeed, PH MINUS allows to decrease the water pH, neutralize certain dissolved salts, increase the nutrient availability (particularly of Calcium and Magnesium), avoid precipitations and alkaline hydrolysis of active substances and compounds such as organophosphates, natural and synthetic pyrethroids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, carbamates and biological insecticides (Bacillus thuringiensis and similar).

PH MINUS improves the cuticular penetration and uptake of the foliar nutrients and of phytosanitary products. PH MINUS thus improves the performance of pesticides, fungicides and herbicides which become more effective, allowing to use lower dosages and reduce the possibility of phytotoxicity.

Moreover, PH MINUS improves the mixability of different products.

Because the attainment of an optimal pH value is fundamental for the effectiveness of many phytosanitary products, PH MINUS has built-in a pH indicator which turns the color of the water according to the pH. In this way is possible to visually and easily determine the pH of the solution by comparing its color with that of the colorimetric scale.

At the proper concentration, PH MINUS can be used as fertilizer in foliar application to supply Phosphorous to the crops.

Moreover, PH MINUS can be efficiently used to clean the surface of the leaves from sooty mold.
