For newly established vineyards:
Carry out a root dip treatment with Strong Roots on the vine cuttings to ensure adequate rehydration prior to planting.
Apply Foundation 7 days after planting, followed by a second application 30 days after the first.
For established vineyards:
Apply Fortify at budbreak/sap bleeding and again pre-flowering.
Apply Encore post-harvest.
Under extreme conditions, apply Rescue prior to the onset of the summer to help sustain vine vigor.
For vineyards affected by late frosts or hailstorms:
Apply Rescue immediately after the frost or hail event.
To maximize product efficacy, split the recommended dose into two applications, applying them at 7 and 14 days after the event.

Application schedule for producing vineyards
Budbreak/Sap bleeding
This phase represents a critical stage in the annual growth cycle of the vine, with numerous changes in the way plants interact with the soil and its microbiome.
The roots begin to develop and seek out nutrients and water, the uptake of which is facilitated by the soil microorganisms.
Application at budbreak helps to strengthen the synergy between the plants and the microbiome, enhancing the interactions within the rhizosphere.
2. Pre-flowering
During this phase, essential hormones are produced that regulate the plant's physiology.
Hormonal activity is also mediated by the soil microbiome.
Application at this stage enhances soil–root system interactions and optimizes their synergy.
3. Post-harvest
Application after harvest is designed to support the vine during its second phase of root growth, promoting the accumulation of reserve substances and facilitating the plant’s transition into winter dormancy. During this phase, just before dormancy, the vine develops new roots and begins storing essential reserves.
Encore supports the production of organic compounds necessary for soil aggregation and for maintaining a stable soil structure during this critical process. Additionally, the product helps make previously unavailable nutrients in the soil (such as phosphorus and potassium) more accessible to the plant.
