ReduCompact
ReduCompact transmits higher levels of blue light compared to red, to grow compact plants in greenhouses. This leads to a reduction in the use of plant growth retardants. ReduCompact is suitable for all commonly used greenhouse coverings and is very wear resistant in higher concentrations. ReduCompact can be easily and safely removed with ReduClean.
- Enhances the blue-to-red light ratio to promote compact plant growth.
- Reduces the need for plant growth regulators
- Suitable for glass, acrylate, polycarbonate, and plastic film
- Highly wear-resistant.
- Easily combined with other ReduSystems products.
- Easy to remove with ReduClean
How to apply?
The best and longest-lasting results are obtained when ReduCompact is applied to a clean, dry greenhouse roof, as follows:
- Fill the mixing tank with the required quantity of clean water and add ReduCompact, stirring continuously.
- Stir the spray liquid frequently during the application.
- Apply ReduCompact evenly to the greenhouse surface, preferably using a spraying machine.
- Do not use any non-ReduSystems shading products in combination with ReduCompact.
- Do not apply when rain is expected within 12 hours, respect drying time.
How to remove?
ReduCompact can be easily removed using ReduClean. For optimal results, dilute 250 liters of ReduClean per hectare (26 US gal/acre) with water at a ratio of 1:5 to 1:7. Ensure it is evenly spread over a dry greenhouse surface. Only apply ReduClean when a considerable amount of rain is expected within one week. The rain will wash off the ReduCompact.
The product can be applied manual, by machine or by helicopter. A proper application partly determines the desired effect.
Application methods
