How Kelpak Works?

Kelpak works by stimulating natural growth processes within plants, primarily through the presence of plant growth-promoting substances such as auxins and cytokinins. These compounds enhance cellular division, elongation, and differentiation, leading to accelerated root and shoot development. The benefits include:

  1. Enhanced Root and Shoot Development – Promotes deeper, more extensive root systems, improving nutrient and water uptake.

  2. Improved Nutrient Uptake – By promoting root growth, Kelpak enhances the plant's ability to absorb and utilize essential nutrients, optimizing the effectiveness of fertilization programs.

  3. Increased Resistance to Environmental Stress – Helps crops withstand drought, salinity, and other environmental stresses such as heat, hail, pests, and diseases.

  4. Reduction in Lodging – In cereal crops, Kelpak increases culm diameter, reducing the risk of lodging and ensuring better standability.

  5. Extended Harvesting Period – For crops like strawberries, Kelpak application has been shown to extend the harvesting period, resulting in increased yields and profitability.

  6. Improved Fruit Set and Quality – Kelpak significantly increases pollen tube development, enhancing germination and fruit set, which leads to higher yields and improved fruit quality.

Kelpak’s unique Cellburst® extraction technology ensures that its natural growth-promoting compounds are preserved without damage, resulting in a more effective and biologically active formulation.

How Kelpak is Applied?
Seed Treatment:

Kelpak is highly effective as a direct seed dip for coating before planting. Seed coating is recommended at a rate of 5 ml/kg of seed.

 

Drip Irrigation

Kelpak is applied using drip irrigation methods. Apply as pulse at the end of irrigation cycle and do not dilute more than 1:1000.

 

Root Soak

Bare roots from trees or plants can be soaked in an Kelpak solution of 0.5-1% before plant out.

 

Soil Drench

Kelpak can be applied as soil drench around the root base of trees, lawns being established and plants or seedbeds in a 0.5-1% solution.

 
Seedling Tray Dip

Kelpak Liquid Fertiliser can be used as seedling tray dip. Immerse seedling tray in a 1% solution or apply as a light hand-watering
