Tap a plant for where it's at and its history. Feed or jot a note right from the orchard. 🌿
The model behind everything. Every plant moves through these — spot the stage, feed to match. Nitrogen down, potassium up, growing to fruiting.
Eight products, with doses. Use bio freely; the two synthetics are targeted tools.
Cyprus limestone soil silently starves plants of iron, manganese and zinc — the hidden cause of years of pale growth. The fix is chelated EDDHA, before anything else.
EDDHA first, wait 7–10 days, then Sprinter — never the reverse.
Alkaline soil + high phosphorus = locked-out iron. That's why Plant-Prod is retired.
UV degrades chelated iron. Apply after sun is off the plants, water in.
Sprinter → Guanito → Italpolina → nothing. Turn it down as plants move from growing to producing.
July–August: no fertilizer for trees, ornamentals, herbs. Vegetables keep getting Καλιο as fruit sets.
Jacaranda: N suppresses flowering. Albizia: fixes its own. EDDHA if pale, nothing else.
Ring around the drip line — ideally 40–50cm out — never against the trunk.
Granular feed does nothing dry. Water deeply after.
Uneven water during fruiting cracks toms, embitters cucumbers, splits melons.
Spread sulfur across beds in October to acidify the soil over winter. Yearly.
Your 6L ποτίστρα = 12g. Dissolve fully, apply evening, pour along the αυλάκι. One ποτίστρα per row, or per 4 melon/watermelon plants.
