FOLIAR FERTILIZATION IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY OF PROVIDING PLANTS WITH NUTRIENTS AND MICROELEMENTS
Conventional fertilization is focused on root application, but 95% of elements for the plant biomass are taken up through the leaves.
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is an effective foliar fertilizer providing the plants with essential nutrients like calcium, silicium, magnesium and some microelements.
- The raw material of Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is calcite, a 100% natural, sedimented mineral generated through calcification of algae with characteristic microelement content from a special mining of calcite in Turkey.
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is a nature-friendly product micronized and activated using the chemical-free DMT technology.
Dosing
Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is applied in the form of 0.2 % dispersion to leaves. (200 g in 100 liters of water)
OPTIMUM APPLICATION
Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L dispersion is sprayed in the form of a fine fog on plants only in the early morning or late afternoon.
Proprietary prodution of DMT technology
- New approach towards micronization technology
- Ability to significantly reduce particle size and increase specific surface
- Treated material gains higher reactivity

Microelements
Chemical composition
Calcite (Ca) and its function
- Accelerates cell division
- Lowers the risk of frost
- Stimulates enzymes
- Accelerates germination
- Protects plants against some diseases
- Enhances cell and root development
- Enhances product durability and extends shelf life
- Promotes root growth, color, flavor, and quality
WHY FOLIAR APPLICATION
- Calcium is a stationary element both in soil and plants.
- Calcium uptake from roots is very low in soil applications. Therefore, foliar fertilization is the most efficient way of providing the plant with calcium.
- Calcium does not move from old to new plant tissues, and fruits. Therefore, foliar feeding is necessary during formation and development of fruits
Silicium (Si) and its function
- Protects plants against stress (diseases and pests, some elements in excess, too much salt etc.)
- Pests (insects) cannot penetrate the cuticula strengthened with silicon easily.
- Straightened leaves utilize light better and increase the rate of photosynthesis. This results in increased Brix.
- It is used as a fertilizer for paddy in Japan and Korea, and for other plants in Brazil, Australia, India, and S. Africa.
Magnesium (Mg) and its function
- The outstanding role of magnesium in photosynthesis is as a constituent of the chlorophyll molecule.
- It is very mobile in plants, and translocated from older to younger leaves. So, deficiency symptoms appear first on the oldest tissues.
Mode of action
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is micronized and activated powder with DMT technology.
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L`s mechanism of action is very fast.
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is applied as 0.2 % dispersion and entering the leaves through the stomata.
- All these nutrients are immediately available to the plants.
- The result is an increased photosynthesis and a strong and healthy growth of the plants
- DMT processed nutriens are immediately available to the plants which is very essential for healthy growth.
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L particles enter the plants quickly through the stomata and are gradually split into Carbon dioxide (CO2), boosting photosynthesis, Calcium oxide (CaO) and Silicon dioxide (SiO2), very important nutrients in the vegetative phase for the growth of cells and for the protection against stress, Magnesium oxide (MgO) essential for the formation of chlorophyll, and some trace elements.

How does it work?
- Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L is efficiently dispersed on the leaf surface (ph dependant) and passes cuticular membrane through areas with weakened hydrophobic interactions
- Major elements Ca2+, HCO3-, and H4SiO4 (orthosilicic acid), Mg+2 and micro elements from Dr. Green-Botanergy penetrate in cells by diffusion and contribute to enhanced chloroplast activity and membrane integrity
- Application is followed by marked increase in calcium and silicon cellular levels, leading to an increased photosynthetic activity and stress resistance
The role of increased carbon dioxide
- Carbon dioxide (CO2) plays a very important role in the growth of plant and is one of the most important essential nutrients.
- All other nutrients or fertilizers are secondary. Without CO2 all other nutrients or fertilizers are of no use.
- Under present conditions they manage an up-take from the atmosphere of maximal 360-380 ppm. For an optimal photosynthesis and growth plants need a Carbon dioxide supply of about 1000 ppm.
- Carbon dioxide is the basic ‘food’ of nearly all plants.
- For a 300 ppm increase in the ambient CO2 concentration of the present level of about 380 ppm, the productivity of herbaceous plants rises by the order of 30-50%(Kimball, 1983, Idso, 1994)
- In addition, elevated ambient CO2 typically increases plant nutrient-use efficiency in general (nitrogen-use efficiency in particular), as well as water-use efficiency.
Physiological effects
- Enlargement of chloroplasts (improvement of photosynthetic activity)
- Increased protein synthesis (increased metabolic activity)
- Increased amount of polyphenols
Better resistance against stress
Better resistance towards physiological stress (hydro, heat stress) due to antioxidant and water preserving activity of Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L
Growth
- Increased growth speed
- Higher metabolic activity
- Increased fruit size
- More efficient nutrient transport
- Increased overall fruit yield
- Healthy seeds for the next crop
Vicious cycle of chemical application and attraction of pests
After applying Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L plants are well balanced in their pH value, increased nutrient uptake results in healthy plants which do not attract Pest and Disease. This observation has been seen and recorded in particular by the rice farmers. Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L relieves the plants of all kinds of biotic and abiotic stress!

Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L treated potatoes have more equal size and similar shape. Tuber color was lighter.
As these tubers of Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L treated potatoes vary according to size, color and form, even bigger is the difference by taste and nutritive value.

Bananas
The test in a banana plantation near Phetchaburi in Thailand proved the efficacy of Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L in promoting healthy growth and earlier development of blossoms and fruits.
The plants were sprayed first time at the age of 2 months and then every 3 weeks. The control plants had not yet developed any blossoms. 6 of the Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L treated plants had developed already banana bunches by that time. An earlier, bigger and premium quality harvest is expected thanks to Yes 4 Leaves/ Y4L.
