The fertilization, in this stage, is intended to provide the necessary nutrients for the next flowering and allow the subsequent development of the fruits. For actinidia, proper water management is fundamental: water shortages and excesses are very harmful to the plant.
Often the numerous irrigations that are made during the vegetative season lead to situations of stress and decay of the plant. That’s why the fertilization in vegetative recovery contributes, together with the correct irrigation, to the healthy development of the root system putting the plant in the most suitable conditions to effectively absorb water and nutrients.
The technical line
Fertilization at vegetative growth:
- BluActive or Red Ball: 300-400 kg/ha granular to the soil
- Hydrostar BTC 10 kg/ha, 2 vegetative growth interventions, in fertigation
- Calcito 10 l/ha , 2 interventions from vegetative development to prehorning, in fertigation
