I am very excited to be a partner with the GenNext team. One
of the most innovative segments of the formulations GenNext produces are the
plant activators and extenders. Plant activators are an integral part of plant
health. They are short-lived compounds
that activate a plant’s immune system to respond to pathogen activity and play
a critical role in plant survival. Unfortunately, plant activators naturally trigger
at the point of stress to a plant…but what if plant activators could be introduced
with an extended life span, beforehand, while a plant is thriving? The GenNext
formulas do just that and have bio-technology to extend plant activator
activity to go beyond the role of defense mechanism and become a partner with
fertility and plant development.
The
GenNext proprietary formula of plant activators and extenders (hormones and
enzymes combined with micro-biological extracts and soluble carbon) or simply
put, composted materials, have been formulated to prolong the effects of plant activators,
so they can be continually introduced with regular applications promoting
beneficial microbial activity and developing plant defenses through the buildup
of root mass and mycorrhizae, thus, promoting plant density and disease
immunity.
When evaluating your foliar program, I believe there needs to
be an overall change in mind set. Fertility protocols need to embrace the use
of plant activators to prime the plant’s development process. Although the
effects of plant activators have been proven to be short-lived, the GenNext
proprietary formulations incorporate natural extenders to prolong the efficacy
of the plant activators from days to weeks. Having this characteristic in your
foliar program will not only optimize plant health, but lead to enhanced
conditioning impervious to abrupt seasonal changes detrimental to plant health.
I intend on writing a number of blogs over the coming months
on plant health, drought tolerance, mycorrhizal colonization and other plant
related topic. Please feel free to contact me with questions about plant health
or the GenNext products.
