Effect
No effect on produce quality
Increased produce quality
Kelpak treated chrysanthemum (cutflower), cv. 'Purple Star', grown in a heated greenhouse with various combinations of water and or nutrient stress occasionally showed significant differences in comparison to untreated control grown in the same conditions: at some assessments/stress situations a significantly higher NDVI and a higher production was observed. Also, analysis of the harvested crop showed - depending on the stress situation - a significantly lower sulfur and molybdenum concentration per kg dry matter.
