In California’s almond industry, bloom season is a pivotal period for growers to secure optimal yields. Penny Newman’s CoMo5 is an innovative solution designed to enhance flower retention, fruit set, and nut development during this critical time. Backed by third-party research, CoMo5 delivers proven results and provides growers with a measurable return on investment, making it an essential input for maximizing bloom season potential.
CoMo5 is not just another nutrient spray—it is a comprehensive nutrient and biostimulant product formulated to address key growth challenges. Here’s how it can benefit almond production:
Backed by Research
CoMo5’s performance has been rigorously validated through over 170 trials conducted across various crops, including studies by UC Davis and independent third-party researchers. The consistent results demonstrate that CoMo5 outperforms competing products, providing growers with reliable, science-backed solutions for increased yield and quality.
Key Benefits of CoMo5:
Increased Nut Size and Weight: CoMo5 supports enhanced kernel development, resulting in larger, heavier almonds.
Higher Flower Count: By promoting healthier flower retention, CoMo5 ensures more blossoms per tree, contributing to higher potential yields.
Improved Fruit Set: CoMo5 has been proven to increase fruit set by 16.2%, outperforming competitive products in this critical area.
Proven Formulation
CoMo5’s effectiveness stems from its advanced formulation, which combines three essential nutrients that are crucial for plant development and resilience:
Cobalt (Co):
Reduces ethylene levels, promoting auxin production and improving flower and nut retention.
Slows plant senescence, fostering better flower set and sustained growth.
Contributes to larger nuts, increased fruit, and improved overall plant development.
Molybdenum (Mo):
Enhances nitrogen metabolism by converting nitrite to nitrate, optimizing protein and amino acid synthesis.
Boosts carbohydrate production, improving the efficiency of nitrogen feeding.
Supports kernel and nut development, enhancing both size and quality.
Nickel (Ni):
Vital for converting urea to ammonia, a key process for efficient nutrient utilization.
Improves stress resistance and enhances insect defense, ensuring plant resilience during critical growth stages.
Results That Matter
The effectiveness of CoMo5 is demonstrated through consistent, positive results:
Yield Increase: CoMo5 has been shown to increase yields by an average of 342 pounds per acre, with a confidence level of 97.3%.
Enhanced Kernel Quality: Almonds treated with CoMo5 exhibited a 9.7% higher yield than those treated with competing products, with significant improvements in both kernel weight and size.
Fruit Set: CoMo5 product increased almond fruit set by 16.2% over competitive products and 13.8% over the control.
Application Recommendations
For optimal results, proper timing and dosage are essential:
When to Apply: Apply from pink bud to 50% bloom for maximum effectiveness.
Recommended Dosage: Use 4 ounces per acre.
Compatibility: CoMo5 is fully compatible with fungicides, facilitating easy integration into your existing spray program.
