Diatical by Trabe, diatomaceous earth with calcium, ecological and protective for your plants

Diatical is a soluble powder supplement made from diatomaceous earth enriched with calcium oxide (25% CaO). It is designed to stimulate plant development and to effectively prevent or correct calcium deficiencies at any stage of cultivation. Thanks to its natural composition and mineral origin, it is a product ecological and environmentally friendly, suitable for organic farming according to Regulation (EC) 834/2007.

Calcium supply and growth enhancement

Calcium is essential for the structural strengthening of the plant, the formation of active roots and the good development of shoots, flowers and fruits.

Its ability to displace sodium from the wet bulb facilitates a better absorption of nutrients and reduces common physiological problems caused by lack of calcium, such as:

• Foliar necrosis
• Apical rot (tip burn)
• Deformed or weak shoots

Diatomaceous earth for pest control

Thanks to its diatomaceous earth base, Diatical also offers a physical pest control mechanism that is completely natural and harmless to the crop:

• Its microscopic particles damage the cuticle of soft-bodied insects, promote their dehydration by contact and reduce the presence of surface pests such as aphids, thrips, ants or mites.

As it is a natural mineral product, it leaves no toxic residues and is compatible with integrated pest management programmes in organic farming.
