CalMax®Ultra An inorganic suspension containing calcium and a balanced ratio of nitrogen, magnesium and micronutrients, formulated with AXM to significantly improve calcium uptake. CalMax Ultra is chloride free making it an ideal foliar calcium source. Crops Most horticultural crops including protected edibles, soft fruit and tree fruit. Use Protects against Blossom End Rot, Bitter Pit, Tip Burn and other calcium-related disorders. CalMax Ultra also increases fruit firmness leading to improved storability and shelf life. Pack Sizes 5, 10, 1000 litres Calcium Deficiency Calcium is a primary constituent of all cell walls and membranes. Restrictions in the availability of calcium will adversely affect cell structure and function. Calcium deficiency is the major cause of a number of disorders including bitter pit in apples, fruit splitting and cracking, tip burn in lettuce and blossom end rot in tomatoes. Transportation of calcium is primarily in the xylem vessels of plants and is thus related to the transpiration rate. Foliar applications of calcium are a common way of supplying extra calcium to prevent deficiency symptoms, however, all too often they prove to be ineffective despite relatively high rates of application. CalMax Ultra - Function CalMax Ultra is a unique formulation containing calcium and AXM, which acts as a ‘pump primer’ to ensure calcium is effectively transported into plant cells even during periods of low metabolic activity. The increased leaf and fruit calcium allows for longer storage life and less risk of physical damage as well as a greater resilience to physiological breakdown.
