Promalin® Plant Growth Regulator
6-Benzyladenine Gibberellic Acid 4 and 7
Promalin® Plant Growth Regulator is a mixture of gibberellic acid 4 and 7 (GA4+7) and 6-benzyladenine (6-BA), plant growth regulators responsible for cell enlargement, elongation, and cell division. Promalin provides many benefits for apple growers, depending on when it is applied.
- During bloom, it improves fruit shape, making apples elongated or “typy”, a desired quality in several varieties, especially Red Delicious and Gala
- Applied from late boom to 40 days after bloom, Promalin improves fruit size and finish, including russet control
- Used after frost events, Promalin can help set fruit that would otherwise fall off
- In nursery trees, Promalin increases branching
- In pears, Promalin improves fruit set, increasing yields
