"Etamon": a description of the drug
Growth stimulant for plants "Etamon" can be used both for plants grown in open ground, and for those that grow in a greenhouse, greenhouse or under film. They process both seeds and vegetative plants. First of all, the drug stimulates the growth of plant roots, providing cellular organelles with easily digestible forms of nitrogen and phosphorus.
If applied simultaneously with foliar fertilizer, this growth stimulator will increase its efficiency, it can also significantly improve the survival rate of flora representatives (especially in unfavorable environments), will be useful in low-volume hydroponics and in the event of a disruption of root development as a result of overcooling or poisoning of the plant.
For a wide range of decorative, vegetable, woody species, the use of this growth promoter for plants is marked by a positive effect. Laboratory and greenhouse experiments have shown that "Etamon" retains its effectiveness in different climatic and soil conditions. The drug increases the germination of seeds and bulbs and regulates the size ratio of the roots and above-ground parts of the plant.
Active ingredient and mechanism of action of the drug
The active substance is dimethylphosphoric dimethyldihydroxyethylammonium. Due to its composition, the drug "Etamon" penetrates into plants and stimulates their natural immunity, strengthens it.It helps to quickly and easily overcome the stress associated with a transplant. Activates the growth of the root system.
How to use "Etamon": instructions for use
Using "Etamon", you must adhere to the instructions for use. For plants grown in the soil, before the treatment itself, prepare the working solution, filling the sprayer with water by a third and adding the required amount of growth stimulant. Then add the missing volume of water and mix. Concentration for spraying - 10 mg / l, consumption - 400-600 l / ha.
For plants growing under conditions of drip irrigation, Etamon is applied to irrigation water, then the preparation, according to the instructions, is thoroughly mixed for about 5 minutes. Consumption in this case will be 0.15-0.2 liters per specimen.
After seed treatment, the solution is first used (adding to the root) when the first leaf appears. Each plant needs 50-80 ml of the prepared solution.Before you bring the seedlings to a permanent place, it is necessary to use the drug again, counting 100-150 ml per plant. "Etamon" is poured again 2-3 weeks after planting in order to enhance the development of the root system, this growth stimulator, according to the instructions, is necessary in the amount of 100-150 ml for each specimen (low-volume substrates) or 150-200 ml (primer). After 2 and 2 weeks, repeated applications are necessary. Further, the drug is used if the root system dies. In the case of small-sized substrates - 100-150 ml of solution, soil - 150-200 ml. Subsequent application is necessary after 2 weeks a second time and after another 2 weeks a third time.
It is possible to use this plant growth enhancer during the whole growing season with an interval of 2 weeks with the calculation of 150-200 ml per specimen.
The advantages of using the drug "Etamon" for cucumbers, tomatoes and other garden crops
This drug is primarily designed for use in the cultivation of cucumbers, tomatoes, sweet peppers, eggplant.Choosing which growth stimulants to use, note that Etamon guarantees high germination for seeds, mitigates the stress associated with transplanting seedlings, provides resistance to adverse conditions, and is perfect for rooting cuttings.
Hazard Class and Security Measures
It belongs to moderately hazardous compounds, in other words - to the 3rd class of danger. The drug "Etamon", since the hazard class for bees is 4th, must be applied at a distance of 1-2 km from these insects (at a wind speed of 5-6 m / s) and a summer restriction of 6-12 hours. Does not affect the useful flora and fauna. Subject to compliance is not phytotoxic.
When working with "Etamon", use overalls, goggles, rubber gloves, respirator. When working strictly prohibited smoking, drinking liquids and food.

Storage space should be closed, dark, without prolonged exposure to sunlight, inaccessible to children and pets. There should not be food, medicine or feed.
We provided you with information about a plant growth stimulant such as Etamon, gave a description of it, described how to apply, store and described safety measures. Use this drug wisely, and it will only benefit your plants.
