- Increases leaf chlorophyll content and plant metabolism
- Enhances plant anti-oxidant levels that assist with buffering against environmental stress
- Reinforces canopy architecture leading to improved photosynthesis efficiencies, reduced sunburn and heat stress
- Toughens plant cell walls making it more difficult for invading pathogens to infect and reduces the palatability of the plant to insects.
- Thicker cell wall development that reduces moisture loss and postharvest breakdown.

Any product label that carries a warning statement about mixing with alkaline substances or to buffer pH 5-6 are most at risk. Check product labels for mixing and compatibility statements and make pH adjustments with citric acid or phosphoric acid where appropriate.
