Rules for using the drug Epin - how to breed
The release form of the drug Epin - ampoules with a volume of 0.25 ml, - one such ampoule is enough for 5 liters of water, and this is the optimal concentration of the solution, suitable for spraying most garden crops. Watering with Epin and the process of preparing the solution has several nuances that must be taken into account:
In dissolved form, the product is suitable for use only for 48 hours, but it will give a really strong effect only if it is applied immediately after preparation;
It is not recommended to store the solution in direct sunlight;
It is best to store the prepared product in a cool, dark place;
Before using the product, you need to read how Epin is prepared, the instructions for use contain proportions for different types of plants;
It is recommended to use the solution no more than once every 2 weeks;
Spraying must be carried out in the evening, when the plants no longer get sunlight;
Epin is not harmful to human health, however, it is best to work with this substance with gloves.
It is optimal to use Epin for young shoots prepared for planting in open ground, as well as for individuals affected by the negative effects of the environment - temperature, infections, insects.
Before spraying, the plant must be prepared - all diseased or mechanically damaged branches and stems must be cut off, insects and their children must be removed from the plant, the soil is loosened at the roots, and fertilized with organic agents. Then you can proceed to spraying - it is necessary to work through all parts of the plant with a solution - the trunk, foliage, base.
Epin-Extra, how to breed it - indicated on the package, suggests its own rate for each horticultural crop:
- Potato tubers must be sprayed with a solution 2 hours before planting in the ground;
- Leave vegetable seeds in a solution prepared in the proportion of 2 drops to half a glass of water for 4 hours;
- The seeds of flowering street plants are soaked in a solution of 4 drops of Epin in half a glass of water;
- Leave flower tubers and bulbs in solution for a day, cuttings of garden trees for 12 hours (proportions - 1 ml per 2 liters of water).
Plants can be sprayed during the period of growth and development - each crop has its own irrigation time:
- Epin for tomatoes is recommended at the very beginning of the appearance of buds and during the flowering of the first cluster;
- The potatoes are irrigated during the budding period;
- It is better to spray cucumbers in the growth phase of the third leaf, then during the budding period;
- Onions are processed during the growth of the fifth leaf;
- The cabbage is sprayed after forming a full rosette.
Preparation of working solution
"Epin" is sold in ampoules. Before using the product, the drug should be diluted with water in a certain ratio and used to treat plants - for soaking or spraying.
The culture does not absorb the agent through the root system, therefore, only the aerial part of it can be sprayed. Leaves and shoots should be watered abundantly with the working solution as evenly as possible. After processing, the diluted drug should be stored for 2 days, but no more, and the place should be chosen dark. If it was exposed to sunlight, then its storage time is reduced to 24 hours. The situation is the same if there is no acidic or weakly acidic reaction.
A couple of weeks after treatment, the active substance that has been absorbed by the plants is degraded.
The instructions below will show you how to prepare and use the working fluid for a specific treatment.
Description and action
The Epin drug was so popular with gardeners that unscrupulous manufacturers began to massively counterfeit it. Naturally, this affected the quality of the drug. In 2003, they stopped producing the drug called Epin and began to produce the drug Epin Extra. This was done to avoid counterfeiting the drug.
To date, only the drug produced and sold under the name Epin Extra is considered an original biostimulant that will help reduce the effect of adverse factors on plants.
Gardeners need to pay attention to the packaging of the growth promoter to avoid buying fakes.
Epibrassinolide is the basis of Epin Extra. It is a phytohormone obtained synthetically. It helps the plant activate and increase its own defenses in the fight against adverse factors. If there is infection with fungal or viral diseases, the healing process with the use of the drug is much faster.
The growth stimulator Epin is also called an anti-stress drug. This means that the immunity of plants under the influence of unfavorable factors increases significantly. Plant crops are much easier to survive such natural phenomena as droughts, rainstorms, frosts and temperature changes.
The use of the anti-stress drug Epin provides plants with:
- increased seed germination;
- growth and development of the root system;
- accelerating healthy growth and development;
- neutralization of the harmful effects of radionuclides and heavy metals in the soil;
- the ability to accumulate the protective forces of plants in case of unfavorable environmental factors;
- excellent rooting of seedlings and good plant survival during transplanting and picking;
- increased productivity;
- an increase in the shelf life of the resulting crop.
It should be remembered that the Epin immunostimulant does not fight pests and diseases. It activates the defenses of the plant itself, making it stronger and more resistant to adverse factors.
Characteristics and composition
Thanks to this active, artificially created drug, the functions of protecting plants from adverse conditions are activated, the anti-stress effect spreads throughout the culture. Bushes that have been treated with the product yield 15 percent more harvest, and the fruits ripen much faster.
Attention! Epin extra is used both for spraying the plants themselves, and for treating seeds, for soaking them. The drug does not affect people, animals and the environment, it is absolutely harmless
Numerous reviews show that the treatment of cucumbers with a means that contains a synthetic substance is needed. Gardeners celebrate many positive changes
The drug does not affect people, animals and the environment, it is absolutely harmless. Numerous reviews show that the treatment of cucumbers with a means that contains a synthetic substance is needed. Gardeners have noted many positive changes.
The use of this drug provides:
- fast seed germination;
- good rooting of seedlings;
- increased yield;
- strengthening plant immunity against diseases;
- plant resistance to negative conditions;
- stimulating the formation of shoots;
- reliable protection against stress during transplantation;
- strengthening the root system of plants.
More often it is used in cases of frost, high humidity, damage to plants by pests and other unfavorable factors.
The product contains a substance called Epibrassinolide - a phytohormone belonging to the group of brassinosteroids. It is obtained from pollen. Until 2003, this drug was marketed under the name Epin. Then it was improved and included a highly purified phytohormone. The name was changed to Epin-Extra.
The composition and principle of operation of the Epin Extra biostimulator
Epin Extra is an immunomodulator preparation, a plant growth stimulator. Synthesized in the laboratory using nanotechnology. The biostimulant accumulates the natural defenses of the plantations, contributes to an increase in yield by 10-15%.
The main substance of the biological product Epibrassinolide is an analogue of the hormone brassin produced in small quantities by plants. Phytohormone accelerates cell division and blocks the production of substances that inhibit the growth of cultures.
Adaptogen activates enzymatic reactions, normalizes metabolism, increases immunity, helping plantations to cope with such stress factors as: sudden temperature fluctuations; drought; freezing; transfer; lack of light. At the same time, Epin Extra does not oppress plants, does not distort their ground part and fruits. The use of the drug promotes the formation of a larger number of ovaries, growth and rapid ripening of fruits.
In addition, the immunomodulator is harmless to humans and animals, does not accumulate in plants, but, on the contrary, promotes the elimination of heavy metals, toxins, nitrates. The processed fruit can be eaten immediately.
The biostimulant is presented in the form of a concentrated yellowish liquid, which requires dilution with water before use. Available in containers of different sizes from 1 ml, which contains about 50 drops.
Epin preparation for stimulating plant growth: instructions for use
Epin-extra (commonly referred to as Epin) is a classic plant growth stimulant with action to increase stress resistance. The main active ingredient is epibrassinolide. It is an artificially synthesized analogue of the natural hormone brassinolide. Most crops have the ability to independently produce such a substance, but the intensity of this process is insufficient and does not provide the necessary needs of plants.
Epin's action is that it stimulates the work of natural phytohormones like auxins or gibberellins, each of which is necessary for a plant during the period of a particular phase of development. The drug is absolutely harmless to humans, beneficial insects and animals if used correctly, it is environmentally safe, odorless and does not leave stains.
The drug is available in ampoules, which contain 1 ml of the substance, which corresponds to approximately 40 drops. For use, the contents of the ampoule are diluted in 5 liters of warm water.
Use Epin-extra in the following cases:
- for seedlings - before disembarking to a permanent place;
- to increase productivity;
- to stimulate the germination of seed material before sowing;
- to accelerate the forcing of tubers and plant bulbs;
- to increase resilience during stress-related situations (cold temperatures, drought, etc.).
It follows from this that the effectiveness of using Epin is that:
- yield increases;
- in plants, resistance to undesirable environmental factors increases;
- the ability to germinate in seeds increases;
- shoots are actively developing;
- the negative impact on plants of heavy metals and radionuclides in the soil is leveled;
- the rooting rate of seedlings improves;
- the duration of storage of the harvested crop increases.
The drug is widely used in horticulture and floriculture, in particular during green cuttings. Among fruits, Epin is actively used on cherries, cherries, apples, pears, peaches, and among flowers - on roses, sakura, etc. The prepared cuttings are immediately placed in a solution with Epin and left there for a certain time. As a result, under greenhouse conditions, the formation of callus in the lower part of the cutting is noticeably accelerated, which, accordingly, indicates the imminent appearance of a full-fledged root system.
Epin-extra is used for processing seedlings of various vegetable crops. In particular, on tomatoes, before the beginning of the budding phase, this substance promotes the formation of an increased number of ovaries. During the growing season, Epin is allowed to process all vegetables grown on the site.
In China and some other countries, Epin's treatments of grain crops are widely used, as a result of which the yield increases by 15-20%.
Positive results are also seen when using Epin on indoor plants. The drug is used to accelerate seed germination when transplanting adult plants to a new place.
The substance has found wide application in the cultivation of conifers. A special positive quality of Epin for them is the fact that thanks to him the trees are protected from ultraviolet rays. Epin-extra is also used to treat winter sunburn in conifers. Both affected and healthy needles are processed.
Epin-extra helps to protect against diseases and pests, improves the state of the immune system of plants, and significantly reduces the risk of re-infection.
Use for vegetable crops
Application for vegetable crops can significantly increase productivity and improve the taste of products. The tool is used for soaking seeds and subsequent processing on a green leaf.
Tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers
Seeds are soaked in 1 - 2% water solution "Epin - extra". Soaking time is 2 hours, in water at room temperature. Before planting, the seedlings are processed on a green leaf. A week after disembarkation, the treatment is repeated.
To increase the number of fruits and improve their taste, spraying is carried out during the appearance of the second true leaf, repeated during flowering. For processing, 1.2 ml of phytohormone is diluted in 6 liters of boiled water, the solution yield is about 6 liters per hundred square meters. To protect plants during unfavorable natural factors, a single spraying on a green leaf with a 2% solution is used.
Potato
Presowing treatment of tubers is carried out in a dark place, avoiding direct sunlight. To process 50 kg of seeds in 250 ml of water, add 1 ml of the substance. The soaking time is 4 - 6 hours.
To improve immunity, potatoes are sprayed in the budding phase. The consumption of the working solution is 3 liters per hundred square meters.
Eggplant, radish
Pre-sowing soaking of seeds is carried out in 1% solution "Epin - extra", the soaking time is 3 hours, the consumption of the chemical is 150 ml per 100 g of seeds.
To increase the yield and improve the presentation of the fruit, the plants are treated during the second leaf phase.
Cabbage
Cabbage seeds are soaked in 0.25% solution for 6 hours. 100 g of seeds will require 100 ml of solution. For spraying seedlings, 1% solution "Epin - extra" is used.
In order to prevent diseases and improve the quality of products, the seedlings are processed during transplantation to a permanent place, and repeated during the formation of the head of cabbage. For this, a 0.2% aqueous solution of a stimulant is used.
Onion - set
To facilitate root formation and increase resistance to unfavorable factors, the bulbs are soaked for 30 minutes in a 0.02% solution before sowing.
To stimulate immune processes per one hundred square meters, you will need 3 liters of a 0.02% solution, processing is carried out in a phase of 4 - 5 leaves.
Melon watermelon
The seeds are soaked for 2 hours. To prepare a solution, 0.02 ml of the drug is diluted in 100 ml of water, this amount is sufficient for processing 100 g of seeds.
To increase the number of ovaries, plants are treated in the budding phase with a 0.2% solution.

Advantages and disadvantages of epin
I'll start right away with the disadvantages of this immunostimulant. The first and, in my opinion, the most important drawback, epin quickly decomposes in the light, losing its unique strength, therefore, it is advisable to carry out processing, avoiding sunlight, and this is not always convenient. The second drawback is inconvenient to dilute in small doses, without a syringe, it's so simple, unrealistic. These are, in fact, all the disadvantages.
A little more should be said about the merits.
- This is the best plant anti-stress drug I know of.
- Reasonable price, especially when compared with the result obtained.
- Helps plants to endure both frost and waterlogging or drought.
- Reduces the content of heavy metals, nitrates, radionucleides in plants and fruits.
- Promotes the rooting of any seedlings, especially good for seedlings.
- Increases productivity.
