Description of the drug

When the agent is on the plant, the bacteria in its composition begin to actively multiply and destroy harmful microorganisms. The enzymes produced by bacteria act on putrefactive processes, stopping them and promoting the decay of rotten tissue. At the same time, the cells of the Bacillus subtilis culture synthesize vitamins, amino acids, contributing to the growth and development of plants.

destruction of harmful microorganisms and rot;
increasing plant immunity, resistance to the development of diseases;
improved adaptability, faster engraftment during transplantation;
increased endurance with temperature fluctuations and the presence of other unfavorable factors.
