Pentakeep

PENTAKEEP-super is a NPK 8-5-3 liquid fertiliser that is blended with 5-aminolevulinic acid (or ALA), which promotes plant photosynthesis. ALA is an important amino acid in the bodies of plants and animals, a substance that is a precursor to chlorophyll in plants. PENTAKEEP-super contains nitrogen, phosphate, potassium, magnesium and micronutrients. It has been confirmed that conventional fertilisers and ALA have synergy effects for plant growth. By using PENTAKEEP-super, photosynthesis is flourished, and water and fertiliser uptake are increased. As a result, adequate water and fertilisers supply is required. Typical concentration is 0.02% (16ml/100L) and it can be used for either foliar or rhizosphere application. For further information on specific crops, please contact our sales representatives.

Dilution Rates and Amount of Application

Route of application	Dilution / 100litres Water	Application for 1 ha.			Interval between applications
		Water Volume	PENTAKEEP-super
Foliar	25-50ml	1,000L	0.6Kg	0.5L	1-2weeks
Rhizosphere	4-16ml	6,000L	1.2Kg	1.0L	1-2weeks

When using a liquid fertiliser injector, please apply 1Kg(0.8l)-2Kg(1.6l) per 1ha.

Application Intervals

Basically optimum application conditions depend on the crop and growing environment. In general, we recommend to apply once a week. Visible results can be seen after one week at the earliest, 3-4 weeks in most cases. Once visible effects are observed, please apply once every 1-2 weeks.

Advice for Better Results

1.Apply in the morning when photosynthesis of plants is active.

For foliar application, it is effective to spray in the morning when stomata are open. This applies to rhizosphere application as well, since absorption ability is highest in the morning.

2.Apply to the backside of the leaves.

When used for foliar application, it is absorbed through cells around the stomata of the leaves especially from the backside of them.

3.Supply appropriate amount of conventional fertilizer and water.

PENTAKEEP-super promotes photosynthesis and as a result, the plants consume 10 to 30 % more fertiliser and water in many cases.

Usage Warnig

• Please measure correctly.
• Prepare only the amount needed for usage, please do not prepare and store.
• To stabilize effects even more, it is recommended to apply in single uses.
• Please avoid the combined use with alkaline materials, sulphuric compounds, and lime chemicals.
• Please do not mix liquid concentrates directly with one another, instead combine diluted PENTAKEEP-super with diluted agricultural chemicals and then apply.
• For foliar application, please beware of the temperature of when you spray. Iftemperatures exceed 30 degrees C , please apply in the evening.
• Effectiveness decreases when combined with service water pH 8 and above.
• Dilution rates and amount of application are rough standards. Please use accordingly afier initial trial. Sensitivity differs according to plant characteristics, varieties, growth stage, weather conditions, and cultivation management.

Handling Precaution

• Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, immediately flush thoroughly with runuing water and seek medical treatment from an eye specialist.
• Avoid contact with skin. In case of skin contact, immediately wash skin thoroughly with runuing water.
• This is not a drink Please do not ingest.
• Store in a place out of the reach of children.
• Replace bottle cap after use, and store out of direct sunlight and high temperatures. Specifically, please do not store in temperatures 30 degrees C and above, or 5 degrees C and below.
