How Does MaxCel Work? Thinning —From bloom through fruit set the demand for energy exceeds supply in pear trees. MaxCel shifts the competition between fruit and vegetative growth causing the weakest fruit to be shed and the strongest fruit to remain. Sizing — MaxCel effects fruit size in two ways. The first is the result of the tree having more available resources for the remaining crop after thinning. The second is the direct effect of the active ingredient in MaxCel which causes more cells to form in the young fruit giving it a greater potential to grow. 142
