GIBB PLUS

Biochemical Mechanism and Formulation

Gibb Plus utilizes a synergistic blend of gibberellins (A4 + A7), the primary phytohormones responsible for cell division and elongation. Unlike mono-substance products, this formulation provides a more consistent physiological response in apple trees. The water-soluble concentrate ensures high bioavailability through foliar application, which is essential during critical growth stages.

Performance in High-Density Orchards

The application of this regulator directly impacts crop morphology:

• Fruit Sizing: Promotes targeted growth while maintaining fruit firmness.
• Shape Correction: Ensures typical fruit development and prevents deformities.
• Stress Management: Supports metabolic functions during the critical fruit-setting period, even under adverse environmental conditions.

Technical Application Guidelines

Classified as a Hazard Class 2 product, Gibb Plus requires adherence to strict handling protocols. The recommended application rate is 0.5–1.0 liters per hectare. A maximum of 3 applications per season is allowed. The Belgian manufacturer, Globachem, emphasizes high purity of active ingredients, eliminating the risk of phytotoxicity often associated with lower-grade additives.

Practical efficacy is achieved through precision spraying during the active vegetation phase. By stimulating protein synthesis during cell division, the product ensures that the increased apple size does not sacrifice storability, meeting the standards required for premium export-grade fruit.
