ProGibb
ProGibb® is a gibberellic acid (GA3) plant growth regulator product. GA3 is found naturally in virtually all plant species. It is a highly effective growth promoter – increasing size and quality of fruits, vegetables, and other crops, essential for optimum growth and development. GA3 also plays a role in the regulation of other plant processes such as flowering, seed germination, dormancy, and senescence. ProGibb is used in many crops to improve crop quality and value.
Registered in 1962, ProGibb is the most widely used GA3 product in the world. Registered crops and uses include:
Artichokes – Accelerates maturity and increases yield
Blueberry – Improves fruit set and fruit size
Banana – Stimulates plant growth and reduces the effects of stress. Maintains fruit quality when applied post-harvest.
Carrots – Helps maintain foliage growth during periods of stress
Celery – Increases plant height and yield
Cherries – Increases fruit size, firmness and quality. Delays maturity for a more orderly harvest
Citrus – Increases fruit set and yield. Delays rind aging. Reduces physiological disorders. Delays maturity for a more orderly harvest
Collard Greens – Facilitates harvest, increases yield and improves quality
Cotton – Promotes early season growth and increase seedling vigor
