WATERMELONS

During our tour at the watermelon cultivation they were the same as during the crop gathering phase. The leaf mass was intensively dark green color, luxuriant, covering the entire surface, so that we could not define where the mechanization approached. The last treatment with MEGAGREEN was performed with an airplane between the 25. and 30. 08. 2004. no other method was not possible to perform without damaging the cultivations because of the intense luxuriantion.

This technology has been found to be very efficient on larger surfaces, because of its economic efficienty and the sizes of the applied MEGAGREEN particals – in a fine aerosol form.

The crop was intensively homogeneously arranged over the entire surface, dark green colo and, standardly shaped. All the fruits were over 10 kg, while the non-treated plants with MEGAGREEN were under 10 kg, as shown in the picture.

Organoleptic confirmation proved of a high percentage of sugar, consistency equally firm and intensive red color.

It is important to mention that during the entire vegatation period no pesticides were used nor any other supplements.

PEPPERS

Peppers were until our second tour treated totally six times. The cultivation is homogeneous, bush-like arranged, intensive dark green color, neatly spread out and regarding the vegatation phase no weeding was sighted which proves that all agrotechnical standards were applied. The leaves mase was intensive and the stems bended under the pressure of fruits, while harvesting did not begin because the peppers did not reach its red color that is characteristic for these types of peppers (ajvar pepper), even though its weight exceeded its standard weight.

The fruit had an intensive aromatic odor, exellent taste and the interior equally filled. The soil was not analysed before the planting was performed, so that in one period of the vegatation changes were noticed on the fruits which we can assign to shortage of calcium because of the soil acidity. By increasing the concentration of MEGAGREEN in the solution we increased the quanitity of calcium and in a few days the fruits reached their characteristic appearance as shown on the picture.
