Effect
Increased produce quality
Radifarm treated Scarlet Sage, cv. Red Hot Sally, grown in 2 different substrate volumes had on average 18.3 % more above ground fresh mass, 17.2 % more above ground dry mass, 36.4% more root fresh mass and 18.7% more root dry mass as compared to the untreated control. The bigger substrate volume combined with the biostimulant treatment gave the best results.
