Contact your local Dormex representative: JOHN MEYER 480.848.5900 JOHN.MEYER@ALZCHEM.COM
You’ll get a more uniform, high-quality crop that comes off in a narrower window. No matter the challenge— not enough chill or the inherent traits of the crop or variety—Dormex® helps improve the consistency of bud break to get your crop started right.
Starting with Dormex® helps you manage your crop better all season long. You’ll see more uniform bud break and blooms which means more energy produced to grow fruit, and less wasted on unproductive growth. Less time and labor is required for pruning and harvest.
