COTTON GROW

It is the most popular multi micronutrient foliar spray for higher yield in the Cotton crop. Which stimulates the secretion of hormones and helpful for stem growth, root initiation & leaf growth.

It having major elements in the Chelating farm of Zinc which helps in plant hormone balance, Auxin activity & division of cells.  ferrous assists in biological process, photosynthesis, and chlorophyll synthesis. Boron helps in the uniform ripening process and is essential in sugar transport and amino acid production. Manganese activates enzymes and chloroplast production.

Some precautionary measures to be followed are:
Do’s:

• Quantity needs to be followed strictly as per the recommended rate.
• Proper mixing of micronutrient fertilizers is required before spray
• The right stage of foliar application is amenable – After the vegetative period (40-45 Days).
• Time of spray must be carried out: at early morning 6-9 am or late evening (5-7 pm) in cool air.
• The sprayer and its parts like the spray nozzle, spray tank should be tide and clean.
• The spray solution should be transparent.
• Deficiency symptom of specific nutrient rectified by 3 sprays or more

Don’ts:

• Don’t spray before the establishment of the crop.
• Don’t use any oxidized salts.
• Don’t combine with water-soluble macronutrient fertilizers (Like Urea, DAP, etc.)
• Don’t mix with any herbicides (Like Glyphosate, etc.) and plant growth regulators (PGRs).
• Don’t spray in abnormal weather conditions (Rain and afternoon hours when high temperature).

Dosage

Dissolve 2-3 ml in one liter of water and spray on both surfaces of the leaves. 
First spray: 30 days after sowing. 

Organic fertilizers can be a great option for promoting healthy cotton growth while minimizing environmental impacts. Here are some examples of organic fertilizers that can be used for cotton:

1. Compost: Composting cotton plant waste and applying the resulting compost back to the soil can provide a slow-release source of nutrients and improve soil health. Cotton farmers can also incorporate other organic materials, such as manure or kitchen scraps, into their compost for added nutrition.

2. Fish emulsion: Fish emulsion is a liquid fertilizer made from fish waste that is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients. It can be applied to cotton plants as a foliar spray or added directly to the soil.

3. Blood meal: Blood meal is a dry, granular fertilizer made from animal blood that is high in nitrogen. It can be added to soil around cotton plants to provide a quick boost of nutrients.

4. Bone meal: Bone meal is a dry, granular fertilizer made from ground animal bones that is high in phosphorus. It can be added to soil around cotton plants to promote healthy root development and flower production.

When using organic fertilizers, it's important to follow the recommended application rates and avoid over-fertilizing, which can harm plants and the environment. Additionally, farmers should regularly test their soil to ensure that they are providing their cotton plants with the appropriate levels of nutrients.
