Quick Facts of Vigo and Vigo Espresso

Vigo

Vigo has

• 17 essential organic amino acids
• 17 essential organic amino acids.
• proven to be extremely effective when used in conjunction with organic fertilizers

Super growth enhancement agent. A foliar or drench additive mixed with water. Once applied is immediately taken up by the plant

It’s NOT a fertilizer!

• Contains a starch like substance called Non-Structural Carbo Hydrates which supplies all the energy to best perform and effectively accomplish all necessary chemical procedures within plant or tree.
• Has Organic Acids  amongst others are growth hormones

One could liken Vigo to smoke in a liquid form which is taken up immediately by the plant {I am sure you have noticed the phenomenal growth in for example grass after fire passed by a day or three before!}

Water solution in the same form as moisture in your soil.

VIGO APPLICATION PROTOCOLS

As per the trials done across the plant spectrum, the application rates have been divided into the following categories:

Agriculture

• Crops (General):
  • Seeds/dry land crops/dry root seedlings/ bulbs and tubers, etc – soak overnight in a 2ml/1lt Vigo/water solution (1:500 Vigo/water solution ) and plant the next day, or apply as a slight stream, drip, or fine mist of undiluted Vigo onto the planted seedbed and water in lightly.  The undiluted application should be applied at 1Lt/15m². Dry-land crops need not be watered in but premature germination may occur without rain/water.  Dry root seedlings have however shown good production results when soaked in a 1:500 solution for a few hours only, but overnight is preferable.
  • Seedling plugs – Drench as and when required with a solution of 2ml Vigo/1lt water solution after planting.
  • If you’re using other fertilizers, your fertilizer application can be reduced by up to 50%, and apply with either a solution of 1:1600 Vigo/water via the drip-line system 2 x weekly, or foliar spray at 8Lts Vigo/Ha every 2 weeks in a mix tank of between 400 and 600Lts water increasing the application to 12.5Lts/Ha every 2 weeks until just before harvest.  Don’t miss any of these applications, but there is no need to re-apply should it rain shortly after application.
  • Vigo can be introduced any time during the plant cycle.

• Vegetables (including strawberries):
  • Seeds/dry root seedlings – soak seeds overnight in a 2ml/1lt Vigo/water solution (1:500 Vigo/water solution) and plant the next day, or apply as a slight stream, drip, or fine mist of undiluted Vigo onto the planted seedbed at a rate of 1Lt/15m² and water in lightly.
  • Thereafter apply 1 drop of Vigo to 160ml’s water and drench whenever watering is required.
  • From transplant stage onwards, apply either a solution of 1:1600 Vigo:water mix via the drip-line system 2 x weekly, or foliar spray at 8Lts Vigo/Ha every 2 weeks in a mix tank of between 400 and 600Lts increasing the application to 12.5Lts/Ha until just before harvest.  Don’t miss any of these applications, but there is no need to re-apply should it rain shortly after application. No need for any surfactants or wetting agents. The previous fertilizer applications can also be reduced by as much as 50%.  Vigo performs best at this reduction in fertilizer protocol.

• Herbs:
  • Follow the protocol for vegetables!

• Fruit trees:
  • Cuttings – Dip cuttings into undiluted Vigo and plant.
  • Seeds – soak seeds overnight in a 2ml/1lt Vigo/water solution (1:500 Vigo/water solution) and plant the next day, or apply as a slight stream, drip, or a fine mist of undiluted Vigo onto the planted seedbed and water in lightly.
  • Thereafter apply 1 drop of Vigo to 160ml’s water and drench whenever watering is required.
  • Increase application accordingly per mass size of plant.
  • At transplant time apply 10ml undiluted Vigo around each tree, thereafter apply 15ml per tree on monthly basis, increasing application as the tree grows to an application of no more than 50ml per tree per month.  Alternatively, apply either a solution of 1:1600 Vigo:water via the drip-line system 2 x weekly (but reduce the current/usual fertilizer application by 50%), or foliar spray at 12.5ts Vigo/Ha every 2 weeks in a mix tank of between 400 and 600Lts until just before harvest.  The latter 2 application rates are also applicable for full grown fruit bearing trees.
  • No need for any surfactants or wetting agents.

Forestry

• • Cuttings – Dip cuttings into undiluted Vigo and plant.
  • Seeds – soak seeds overnight in a 2ml/1lt Vigo/water solution (1:500 Vigo/water solution) and plant the next day, or apply as a slight stream, drip, or fine mist of undiluted Vigo onto the planted seedbed and water in lightly.
  • Thereafter apply 1 drop of Vigo to 160ml’s water and drench whenever watering is required.  Increase application accordingly per mass size of plant.
  • At transplant time apply 10ml undiluted Vigo around each tree, as a once-off. However 5ml can be applied per tree on a monthly basis if wished, increasing application as the tree grows to an application rate of no more than 50ml per tree per month.

Horticulture

• • Cuttings – Dip cuttings into undiluted Vigo and plant.
  • Seeds – soak seeds overnight in a 2ml/1lt Vigo/water solution (1:500 Vigo/water solution) and plant the next day, or apply as a slight stream, drip, or fine mist of undiluted Vigo onto the planted seedbed at a rate of 1lt/15m², and water in lightly.
  • At transplant time apply 10ml undiluted Vigo around each tree, or 5ml around each plant, as a once-off. The equivalent of 30ml/1Lt water can be applied per 16m² on a monthly basis if wished, increasing application (in the case of trees) to no more than 50ml undiluted per month, with other fertilizers.
  • In times of stress a Vigo solution of 30ml/1Lt water can be applied as a foliar application (even to aloes) every 2-weeks.

Compost

• • Apply 200ml undiluted Vigo to 1mᶟ raw material at the start of the composting process, and/or 100ml undiluted Vigo to 1mᶟ of the finished product and mix in well.
  • Where water is added to a windrow every time it is turned, add a 1:1600 ratio Vigo to water every time that the windrow is turned.

Golf Courses and Sports-Fields

• • Golf greens; – Apply Vigo at 12.5Lts/Ha every 2-weeks (with other fertilizers – reduce fertilizer applications).
  • Sports-Fields: – Apply Vigo at 12.5Lts/Ha every 2-weeks (with other fertilizers – reduce fertilizer applications). No need to water in if grass clippings are not removed from the fields.

• Note :
  • *With the continual usage of Vigo we have found that plants continue to perform optimally even when water is reduced by 30%, and even as much as 40% in some cases.
  • *With Vigo, the advantage of various options with regards to applications is apparent.
  • * Vigo applied as both a foliar or soil/root applications creates an environment around the root zone (rhizosphere) which encourages (and thus speeds up) the rehabilitation of soils from chemical to organic, also known as the “chemganic” phase.

Mycorrhiza:

• The production of fruit trees, nuts etc is strongly influenced by the extent of mycorrhizal activity in the root zone.
• Mycorrhiza are beneficial fungi that occur in association with plant roots.
• The greater the mycorrhizal activity, the better your production.
• ***Please note that mycorrhiza require carbon, which they cannot take up from the soil itself, but get it from the plant. {The best-known symbiotic relationship on Earth.} In exchange, the mycorrhizal hyphae network extends into the soil, effectively increasing the root zone (rhizosphere), enabling the plant to take up moisture and nutrients from a wider area.

Organic acids:

• Contains extremely wide range of organic acids and lipids plus silicic acid.
• Another major factor in all plants is the translocation of calcium to the flower base. This is greatly enhanced by the presence of salicic acid in a form plants use efficiently.

Brix levels of plants:

• Vigo and Vigo espresso will increase the Brix level of the plant. The more you use, the more the Brics count.
• Higher Brix levels helps combat insects such as thrips and scale mite

It has been found that Vigo and Vigo espresso can totally take the place of your fertilising program with exceptional results.

• It is a ideal product for high value intensive crops and fruits.
• Not ideal for crops like maize, cane, pasture as a lot of product will be needed.
