Blueberry
Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) is a bush belonging to the Ericaceae family, characterized by a fine and shallow root system that is sensitive to waterlogging and salinity. It flowers in spring with small white or pinkish flowers arranged in hanging clusters. The fruits are blue-violet berries rich in sugars, organic acids, anthocyanins, and phenolic compounds with strong antioxidant activity. It prefers temperate climates and light, acidic soils (pH 4.5–5.5), well drained and rich in organic matter.
Blueberry primarily assimilates nitrogen in ammonium form (NH₄⁺), which promotes rhizosphere acidification and improves micronutrient uptake, contributing to balanced growth and fruits of high organoleptic quality.
Sprouting for blueberries
Sprouting in blueberry is a delicate phase that influences the regularity of vegetative growth and the subsequent uniformity of flowering and production. Temperature stress, nutritional imbalances, or excess water can slow bud reactivation and compromise the plant’s vegetative-productive balance.
The use of FYLLOTON® promotes the activation of metabolic processes and the recovery of enzymatic functions after dormancy. The treatment improves bud vitality, stimulates cell expansion, and supports the development of new shoots, ensuring uniform vegetative regrowth and a balanced productive base for the following season.

Flowering and fruit set for blueberries
In blueberry, flowering and fruit set directly influence yield and fruit quality. Unfavorable environmental factors such as low temperatures or nutritional imbalances can reduce flower vitality and compromise fertility.
The use of FOLICIST® supports the metabolism of floral tissues, promoting full flower opening and improving fertilization efficiency. The product also stimulates the natural synthesis of growth hormones, supporting the initial development of fruitlets. This results in more uniform fruits and overall, more consistent and high-quality production.

Fruit Sizing for blueberries
Fruit sizing in blueberry is crucial for achieving optimal size, firmness, and commercial quality. During this phase, water stress, nutritional imbalances, or limited metabolic activity can reduce sugar accumulation and reserve deposition in the berries.
KRISS® (or KRISS® BIOLOGICO in organic farming) promotes cell expansion and enzymatic activity related to carbohydrate metabolism, supporting cell multiplication and nutrient translocation to enlarging fruits. At the same time, it enhances the synthesis of structural compounds without compromising tissue firmness. The result is firmer fruits with more uniform size and high organoleptic quality.

Quality for blueberries
Blueberry fruit quality is closely linked to uniform ripening, sugar accumulation, color, and concentration of anthocyanins and phenolic compounds. Stress conditions such as temperature fluctuations or nutritional deficiencies can compromise berry color, flavor, and nutritional value.
The application of SUNRED® supports metabolic processes responsible for pigment and aromatic compound synthesis. The treatment promotes balanced sugar accumulation, improves color intensity, and optimizes fruit firmness.
