Instructions for using Kornevin for tomatoes, how to use it when picking

The instructions for the medicinal product "Kornevin" for tomatoes describe the instructions for use in detail. The solution accelerates plant growth and increases its resistance to various adverse effects, but the description also lists some disadvantages. To get the most out of Kornevin, it's important to prepare the solution correctly. It can be used dry or diluted at any stage of tomato development.

What kind of drug is Kornevin?

"Kornevin" is considered a powerful biostimulant that strengthens roots and promotes the growth of new branches. It contains micro- and macroelements that boost the plant's immunity.

When preparing the solution and treating plants with Kornevin, special care should be taken, as the components are dangerous for animals and people around them:

• the drug is diluted only in containers that are not intended for food;
• Smoking, eating and drinking are prohibited during work;
• If the biological product gets on your skin, wash it off immediately with soap;
• The purchased product should be kept in a cool, dark place, out of the reach of children and animals.

It is recommended to open the package and dilute the preparation in a well-ventilated area or outdoors. It is advisable to wear protective clothing, goggles, and rubber gloves.

Composition and dosage form

The active ingredient in the biological product "Kornevin" is indolebutyric acid. It also contains micro- and macroelements essential for normal vegetable growth. The product is rich in potassium, phosphorus, molybdenum, and manganese:

• When indolebutyric acid comes into contact with the plant, it irritates the surface layer. This causes new living cells and root shoots to emerge from the damaged area. When mixed with the soil, the acid converts into the phytohormone heteroauxin. This hormone stimulates the development of the plant's underground parts.
• Potassium is involved in the formation of stems and ovaries, improves the process of photosynthesis, increases the fruiting period and enhances the taste of the fruit.
• Phosphorus promotes healthy plant growth with strong immunity. It strengthens the root system, resulting in the formation of large, juicy fruits.
• Molybdenum plays a role in the accumulation of useful components in fruits, in addition, it reduces the content of nitrates.
• Manganese helps tomatoes develop strong stems and roots. It also disinfects the soil and reduces the likelihood of pests.

The drug is produced as a dry, light beige, odorless powder. It is packaged in polyethylene bags in various dosages.

"Kornevin" is not used as a fertilizer, which is indicated for application during crop cultivation.

Pros and cons of using the drug

The drug "Kornevin" is characterized by the following list of positive properties:

• promotes better adaptation and rooting of young shoots;
• improves the growth of root branches;
• increases resistance to infections;
• the plant adapts faster to a new location;
• combination with fungicides and insecticides is acceptable;
• increases the resistance of vegetable crops to adverse effects (deficiency or excess of moisture, hot or humid air).

The product's drawbacks are minor and relate to the dosage instructions. Exceeding the dosage can lead to stunted plant growth and even death. The product should be used immediately after opening. Exposure to oxygen reduces its effectiveness.

Indications for use

Depending on the stage of tomato development at which the medicine is applied, the effect will vary:

• immersing seeds in a solution increases the likelihood of their germination;
• "Kornevin" helps to grow strong seedlings;
• improves the rooting process of seedlings;
• stimulates the process of development of the underground part of the plant;
• reduces transplant stress;
• increases the resistance of seedlings to adverse influences.

Kornevin should be used in the following cases:

• if the planting material does not inspire confidence;
• if the weather is bad during the transplantation of seedlings into open beds;
• If the tomato bushes are wilted, have started to turn yellow and are not developing.

Additional treatment of vegetable crops with a medicinal solution activates their adaptive capabilities and gives them strength for further development.

How does it affect tomatoes?

The use of "Kornevin" is justified by the following points:

• soaking tomato seeds promotes their rapid germination (and almost all planted seeds germinate);
• ovaries begin to appear earlier;
• the size of fruits increases and their quality improves;
• the amount of weeds in the beds is reduced.

Even in unfavorable summer conditions, using Kornevin at any stage of tomato development will allow you to harvest a good crop.

Dosage and preparation of working solution

The powder is poured from the opened plastic container into a glass container, which is tightly sealed with a lid. To prepare the working solution, dissolve the powder in water. The dosage is simple: 1 g of the product per liter. The prepared liquid solution is not suitable for storage. Any excess liquid remaining after processing should be discarded.

Methods of using the product

The biostimulant "Kornevin" can be used in two forms: as a dry powder and as a liquid solution:

1. Dry application involves treating the root system of plants with powder before planting.
2. The liquid solution is used for watering plants, as well as for treating planting material.

When purchasing the medication, pay special attention to the expiration date. If it has expired, the effectiveness of the powder is significantly reduced.

In diluted form

Dissolve 1 g of dry matter in one liter of water. Each tomato seedling should require 55 ml of liquid solution.

In dry form

Dry Kornevin powder is used when replanting tomato plants. It is applied to the base of the seedlings. To enhance the effectiveness of the dry powder, activated charcoal or Fitosporin are added. The resulting mixture will help the plant root faster and increase resistance to fungal infections. The seedlings are immersed in the dry mixture to a depth of 2 cm.

Processing times and technology

The timing of using Kornevin coincides with the main steps involved in caring for tomatoes:

• at the stage of preparing seeds for sowing, after their selection and disinfection, the planting material is soaked in a medicinal preparation;
• further use is shown during picking seedlings into separate containers (dry dusting is recommended);
• then the processing time coincides with the transplantation of seedlings to a permanent location (it is recommended to water each hole with a sprout with a liquid solution);
• Before the formation of ovaries, watering with "Kornevin" will improve fruiting and increase the quality of the harvest.

This medication is not appropriate for all cases. Particular caution should be exercised when administering the medication.

For seedlings

When transplanting tomatoes into the ground, Kornevin is often used:

• The area for planting tomatoes is dug up in the fall and spring, weeds are removed and fertilizer is added.
• In the prepared area, holes are made into which the seedlings are transplanted.
• Each bush is covered with soil and watered.
• Only after this, each root is watered with a solution of “Kornevin”.

Each bush should receive 55 ml of solution. Do not exceed the dosage.

If the weather is good and warm during transplantation, then the use of Kornevin is not advisable. Light, warmth and free space become a natural source of normal development. Additional stimulation of growth may cause developmental delay.

Kornevin should be applied in cloudy, cool weather. In such conditions, seedlings can become weakened and susceptible to disease. Water each tomato plant individually.

When picking

Pricking begins when the young plant reaches 4.5 cm and the first true leaves have unfurled. The seedlings are transplanted from the main container into individual cups:

• The seedlings are watered the day before transplanting.
• The cups are filled with fertile, loose soil and moistened.
• In the new location, they make depressions.
• The plants are removed from the container and the roots are trimmed back by 1/3. This procedure promotes the formation of lateral root branches.
• The bushes are planted in holes, covered with soil and lightly compacted.
• A small depression is made near the stem, into which a diluted solution of "Kornevin" is poured.

Rooting

Tomato seedlings can be replanted using either a dry powder or a liquid solution. The dry method is more effective, but it's not cost-effective, and there's a high risk of overdosing. Dusting is used when the liquid solution fails to help the plant root.

The sequence of actions for rooting seedlings using a liquid solution:

• the powder is dissolved in water;
• place the sprout in the solution for 10 minutes;
• Activated carbon is ground into powder and added to the solution.

After these steps, the seedlings are ready for planting in a permanent location.

When the fruits ripen

To increase yield, prepare a liquid solution. Water the beds in the evening. This solution is necessary when the plant appears weak, fruit buds are not forming, or fruit are falling off. The Kornevin solution strengthens the underground part of the plant, improving moisture and nutrient absorption. This will improve the quality and quantity of fruit, and the ripening process will begin earlier.

What to do in case of overdose

Exceeding the recommended dosage of phytohormone leads to inhibition of root system development.

In addition, the risk of root rot increases and the plant dies.

To prevent overdosing, it is recommended to mix the product with crushed activated carbon. The components are used in equal proportions. If overuse of the product is detected, the seedlings should be replanted.
