Optic Foliar Switch and Optic Foliar Transport

Description

Optic Foliar Switch uses two methods of action that directly benefit your garden: Faster transition to flower and ensuring female flowers stay female through the flowering process.

SWITCH contains ingredients that stimulates the onset of flower quicker, you’ll reduce stretch, get an increase in flowering sites and reduce flowering time by a week.

Some varieties of plants can be more genetically pre-disposed to producing pollen, which leads to seeded fruit come harvest time, reducing the yield of usable plant parts. Switch will stop any male flower parts from forming on your plants, so there won’t be any pollen to fertilise the remaining female parts.

Optic Foliar Switch is made up of proprietary secret ingredients, but its main mode of action is through ethylene gas which is a key hormone in the ripening stages of most fruit and flowers. Switch releases ethylene for a few days after application, so the spray keeps working. Ethylene is also used in the commercial ripening of bananas and is the gas responsible for fruit ripening quicker when new fruit is mixed with older, more ripe fruit (like in a bowl of fruit).

Indoors, we have the perfect environment to keep external pollen away from female plant parts, preventing seeds in our fruit by filtering the intake air – removing any particulates including pollen. We can’t stop pollen caused within the garden which is normally caused by plant stress such as a light leak but could also depend on the genetics of the plant. Using SWITCH at the onset of flower keeps female flowers female.

Switch allows indoor gardeners to grow varieties that are more prone to hermaphrodites without the risk of seeds in the crop. Seedless fruit is now a staple even in supermarkets, with a wide variety including: Grapes, Bananas, Watermelons, Tomato, Pineapple and many types of citrus fruit that’s now available in seedless form.

If you notice male flowers on your plants it’s not too late – apply switch as soon as possible and watch as the male flowers shrivel and fall off – reversing the hermaphrodite process. Any female flowers that have already been pollenated will be aborted, resulting in a seedless harvest.

TRANSPORT

TRANSPORT provides superior spreading and wetting capabilities that allow you to spray in full sunlight with no damage or burning. Combine Optic Foliar TRANSPORT with any foliar solution to allow you to spray in full sunlight with no damage or burning, residuals to wash off or the need to spray the undersides of the leaves. Transport is the only spreader to maximize absorption to the plants Mesophyll Layer.
