Nettle extract (Urtica dioica) 1% v / v - Spray ready for use
Product based on nettle extract (Urtica dioica), a perennial herb plant belonging to the Urticaceae family, present all over the world. Nettle, from the Latin "urere" which means "to burn", has been known for centuries for its stinging properties, as it is rich in histamine, acetylcholine and formic acid. Thanks to the presence of these stinging substances, applied on plants, it helps them to protect themselves in the presence of sucking insects, in particular, aphids, thrips and whiteflies. It also performs a phytostimulant action in cases of plants weakened or stressed by adverse climatic situations. Nettle is also very rich in iron and its is recommended for the treatment of ferric chlorosis, i.e. the yellowing of leaves caused by iron deficiency in the soil. It is applicable both on ornamental plants and on garden and garden plants and can be used at any time of the production cycle.
