In regions with mild or without winters, grapes can suffer from a weak and irregular bud break.This can lead to poor yields in table grapes. In wine grapes we prefer low yields to have a better wine quality. But Dormex® substitutes the lack of chilling hours by releasing the plant from dormancy and stimulates an optimal bud break. So if we have this problem in wine grapes, Dormex® can be a solution. Often the problems can be solved with more plants per acre without loss of wine quality.

Information from the producer
In regions with mild or without winters, grapes suffer from a weak and irregular bud break, which in turn leads to poor yields. Dormex® substitutes the lack of chilling hours by releasing the plant from dormancy and stimulates an optimal bud break.
Dormex® represents an effective tool, which gives professional table grape growers more control over the management of the crop. The application of this plant growth regulator increases the number of emerging buds, promotes a more uniform bud break and – if desired – can advance bud break. This leads to increased yields and earlier harvest time.
Treatment with Dormex® is sometimes necessary in regions with mild winters, where natural chilling is not sufficient to satisfy the chilling requirement of the target crops. The proper application of Dormex® increases the number of emerging buds, which in turn leads to impressive yield increases. Furthermore, Dormex® has proved to considerably advance bloom and harvest time in various regions worldwide.
The active ingredient of Dormex® is hydrogen cyanamide, a substance which is also present in nature. For example, plants like hairy vetch synthesize cyanamide for self-defence purposes. Dormex® is manufactured in Germany under high quality standards, proved by ISO 9001 and TÜV certificates. These high standards for production and handling, assure that the product performs as indicated. Dormex® is the perfect tool to manage production and harvest time in temperate zone crops. Ongoing research programs support the development of best practices to optimize the growth of crops under ever changing and often challenging conditions.
Storage
Dormex® is temperature sensitive. It should always be stored below 20 °C. Higher temperatures reduce the shelf-life significantly. Never let Dormex® stand in the full sun or apply temperatures above 40°C even for short periods. Place in a temperature controlled environment soon after purchase.
Safety instructions
Always comply with the safety instructions provided in our safety data sheet!
