Vigor-Cal™ is designed to effectively promote plant vigor and provide a key element in maximizing fruit quality.

It focuses on increasing cell wall thickness and durability, which leads to improved fruit firmness and storage life. It is particularly effective during the early season, from bloom through early fruit development, when calcium is most easily incorporated into cell walls.

Features & Benefits

Vigor-Cal™ is a foliar calcium derived from calcium carbonate. A series of proprietary manufacturing processes are used to separate the calcium from the carbonate molecule and link it to a polysaccharide molecule, creating a sugar based nutrient product. Vigor Enhanced Nutrients further improve the efficiency of the Dextro-Lac Technology by adding a biological finishing package with specific nutrient combinations based on individual crop needs.

Mode of Action

  • Penetrates plant leaves, emerging buds, and the skin of fruit.
  • Uptake through cell walls and via stomata.
  • Easily metabolized and utilized as needed by the plant.

Added Value

  • Improves fruit quality
  • Improves shelf life
  • Reduces splitting during sizing
  • Optimizes leaf cuticle and fruit skin development
  • Promotes plant vigor
