Watermelons

On 03. 05. 2004. planting started on a 9 ha surface, after which we continued seeding on the same surface size. The procedure was completed by 15. 05 2004.

The cultivated seedlings were treated 4 times while the sowing cultivation was treated 3 times. In the begining a sudden cold spell struck the vegetation, after which a certain part of the culitivation freezed, but after treating this cultivation with concentrations of 1% MEGAGREEN, they revitilized, so that the day we toured the location, no differences were noticed in comparation with the vegetation that did not freeze.

As a control sample we used enough vegatation that had not been treated with MEGAGREEN. A certain number of seedlings were removed from the irrigation system. During the tour we noticed that in this phase of the vegatation, the cultivation covered the entire soil surface. The leaves were colored dark green and the green plant mass was so intensive that it covered the entire surface.

The owner stated that the improvment was obviose on a daily basis. The plants grew over 70 –90 cm a day and the fruits gained over a kilogram of weight daily (when it passed 1 kg of weight). The quantity of flower and fruit was multiply greater than the non-treated cultivation. Flower buds quantitativly grew exceptionally fast, which resulted in the fruits regular shape and a total crop increase, indicating the high degree of fertilization quality. The cultivations that were not irrigated did not manifest any differences from the cultivations that were intergrated in the irrigation system.

PEPPERS

Peppers were planted between the 15. and 20. 05. 2004. on a surface of 4 ha. At the time of the tour of the pepper cultivation it was obvious that the leaf mass was luxurianed, homogeneously bush-like and dark green color. We also noticed an intensified flower development. From the planting moment to our tour of the cultivation, 4 treatments with MEGAGREEN were performed.

On the neighbours crop that was not treated with MEGAGREEN, slower growth was noticed and the cultivation development was three times lower, leaf mass was decreased and were colored light green to yellow.. On the same crop all regular agrotechnological methods were applied as all other protective methods used on this specific cultivation.
