Metrop Calgreen

Metrop Calgreen is a highly concentrated liquid fertilizer, specially formulated to provide plants with an optimum supply of calcium and magnesium. These two elements play a crucial role in plant development, notably by strengthening cell structures and optimizing photosynthesis. Calgreen is used to enhance vegetative growth and strengthen plant resistance to disease, environmental stress and nutrient deficiencies. This fertilizer is particularly appreciated in hydroponics, but is also suitable for soil and coco crops.

Composition and nutrients

Metrop Calgreen features a balanced formulation, rich in essential elements, particularly calcium and magnesium, two nutrients essential to plant health and vigor.

• Calcium (Ca): Calcium is a key element in the formation of cell walls. It strengthens the structure of stems and roots, improves the solidity of plant tissues, and enhances nutrient absorption. Calcium is also crucial for the transport of nutrients within the plant, helping to distribute them to different parts of the plant.

• Magnesium (Mg): This nutrient is essential for photosynthesis, as it is an integral part of the chlorophyll molecule. Magnesium improves the photosynthetic efficiency of plants, leading to increased energy production and faster development.

• Nitrogen (N): A small amount of nitrogen is also present in Calgreen, to support overall plant growth, particularly during the vegetative phase, while stimulating protein and amino acid production.

Benefits of using Metrop Calgreen

1. Reinforced cell structure: the calcium contained in Calgreen strengthens cell walls, improving plants' resistance to external aggressions such as insects, disease or mechanical shocks (wind, pruning). Plants become stronger and more stable.

2. Improved photosynthesis: Magnesium plays a central role in chlorophyll production. Greater photosynthetic efficiency translates into increased energy production, necessary for vigorous growth and optimal development of leaves and stems.

3. Reduced calcium and magnesium deficiencies: Calcium deficiencies can lead to problems such as blossom end rot in tomatoes and other fruits, while magnesium deficiencies can cause leaf yellowing. Metrop Calgreen effectively prevents and corrects these deficiencies, ensuring optimum plant health.

4. Increased resistance to disease and stress: Plants enriched with calcium and magnesium are more resistant to fungal and bacterial diseases, and cope better with periods of stress, whether caused by drought, excessive heat or nutritional deficiencies.

5. Improved fruit and flower quality: By strengthening plant cell structure, Calgreen improves fruit and flower quality. Fruit is firmer, tastier and more resistant to transport and storage. Flowers become denser and more voluminous.

6. Compatible with all types of cultivation: Whether hydroponically, in soil or in coco substrate, Metrop Calgreen is perfectly suited to all types of cultivation. It can be used both indoors and outdoors.

Use and dosage

Metrop Calgreen is versatile and can be used throughout the plant's life cycle, although its effectiveness is particularly pronounced during the growth phase and at the start of flowering, when calcium and magnesium requirements are highest.

• Recommended dosage: In general, a dosage of 0.5 to 1.5 ml per liter of water is recommended, depending on the plant's stage of development and general condition. In the case of specific calcium or magnesium deficiencies, the dosage can be adjusted accordingly.

• Application: Calgreen can be applied in two main ways:

  • Soil spraying: Mixed with irrigation water, it is easily assimilated by the roots.
  • Foliar spraying: By applying directly to the leaves, plants absorb calcium and magnesium more rapidly, which is particularly useful in cases of acute deficiency.

Synergy with other Metrop products

Metrop Calgreen is often used in conjunction with other products in the Metrop range to provide a complete, balanced nutritional solution at every stage of plant growth:

• Metrop MR1: Used during the growth phase, MR1 supplies essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, while Calgreen provides the calcium and magnesium needed to strengthen plant structures.

• Metrop MR2: During flowering, MR2 supports flower and fruit formation thanks to its high phosphorus and potassium content, while Calgreen improves fruit quality and firmness, preventing problems such as blossom end rot.

• Metrop AminoXtrem: Combined with Calgreen,AminoXtrem stimulates root growth and helps plants better absorb calcium and magnesium, while boosting their resistance to stress.

Respect for the environment

Metrop Calgreen is formulated to be environmentally friendly. It contains no heavy metals or harmful chemicals, ensuring that it does not pollute soil or groundwater. This clean composition makes it a safe choice for both professional growers and amateur gardeners concerned about the environmental impact of their practices.

Results observed with Metrop Calgreen

Users of Metrop Calgreen generally report visible results soon after application. Plants are more vigorous, leaves are greener and stems are stronger. In the flowering phase, flowers are more abundant and fruit more resistant to disease. Fruit crops, in particular, benefit from improved quality, with larger, firmer fruits that are less prone to physiological disorders such as necrosis or apical rot.

Conclusion

Metrop Calgreen is an indispensable liquid fertilizer for any grower wishing to maximize the health and robustness of their plants. By providing optimal amounts of calcium and magnesium, it not only improves plant structure, but also their ability to absorb other nutrients, enhancing growth and resistance to environmental stress. Whether used alone or in combination with other products in the Metrop range, Calgreen guarantees healthier plants, more abundant harvests and better-quality fruit, while respecting the environment.
