Tech Tips: Mojo Interspecific Geranium is moderately vigorous and may require regular plant growth regulator (PGR) applications, especially under warm growing conditions. Provide relatively high light levels and warm temperatures early on to establish the plant and to allow it to respond adequately to PGRs. Early Florel ® sprays are key to making well-branched, quality plants. Watch for Botrytis under tight spacing and in combination plantings, especially when overhead irrigating. Monitor the media and try to keep the pH at or above 6.0 to avoid iron/manganese toxicity.

Tech Tips: Moxie! Interspecific Geraniums are relatively compact and should not require repeated plant growth regulator (PGR) applications. Provide relatively high light levels and warm temperatures early on to establish the plant and to allow it to respond adequately to PGRs. Early Florel ® sprays are key to making well-branched, quality plants. Watch for Botrytis under tight spacing and in combination plantings, especially when overhead irrigating. Monitor the media and try to keep the pH at around 6.0 to avoid iron/manganese toxicity.

Provide relatively high light levels and warm temperatures early on to establish the plant and to allow it to respond adequately to PGRs. Early Florel ® sprays are key to making well-branched, quality plants and delaying very early flowering. Watch for Botrytis under tight spacing and in combination plantings, especially when overhead irrigating. Monitor the media and try to keep the pH at around 6.0 to avoid iron/manganese toxicity.

Tech Tips: Cascade Ivy Geranium is relatively vigorous and will require regular plant growth regulator (PGR) applications, especially under warm growing conditions. Provide relatively high light levels and warm temperatures early on to establish the plant and to allow it to respond adequately to PGRs. Early Florel ® sprays are vital to making well-branched, quality plants. Watch for Botrytis under tight spacing and in combination plantings, especially when overhead irrigating. Monitor the media and try to keep the pH between 5.5–5.9 to avoid iron deficiency (tip chlorosis).
