Boro-Pro®
Benefits of Use:
- Supplies boron nutrition necessary for metabolic activity, proper growth, and maturation
- Enhances pollen viability and pollination in flowering crops
- Improves quality of crop
- Is required for cell division and normal tissue differentiation and maturation
- Functions with calcium to form an “intercellular cement” to maintain plant structuralintegrity
- Improves protein metabolism and reduces nitrate accumulation in young leaves
- Improves sugar transport in plants
Deficiency Symptoms—When to Apply:
- Reduced flowering or improper pollination
- Stubby stem or root growth; weakened cell walls that allow crop lodging
- Thickened, curled, wilted, and chlorotic leaves
- Symptoms of calcium deficiency may appear
- ALFALFA: yellow-reddish leaves in new growth, CORN: pollen tube failure, COTTON: rosette, NUT CROPS: decreased yields in otherwise-healthy trees
To add zinc to a boron application, Z-Max® can be mixed with Boro-Pro® when both are properly diluted.

Earth Day: “It’s Getting Better All the Time”
Celebrating Earth Day every April 22 is a great time to pause and reflect: How are we, today, treating the environment and the plants, animals, and people who live in it? What have we accomplished in the past year that makes our planet a better, more sustainable place to live and raise our families? What are our goals for future improvement?
How Deep Should You Plant?
This time every year, hemming and hawing would rage on at the Nichols Farm. Dad and Uncle Gary would not only agonize over when to plant, but how deep to drop the seeds. From “It’s been awfully dry, we better wait for a rain” to “It still feels a little wet, maybe we should run the field cultivator over it again” (gulp) to my annual favorite: “But If we get a beatin’ rain, those tops will turn into a layer of concrete.” Prompting, “Then we’ll have to rotary hoe.” Ah yes, the rotary hoe. A toolbar affixed with several blades resembling weapons thrown by Ninjas: rotating steel wheels featuring curved teeth. It’s used to break up crusted soils (and in some cases to incorporate herbicide) formed by those beatin’ rains.
