The present invention is directed to a method of increasing almond nutmeat yield comprising applying aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) or a salt of AVG at an effective rate to an almond tree following full bloom.

Methods of increasing almond yield

Water-dispersible plant growth regulating compositions in concentrated suspended particle form, and more particularly to growth regulating compositions comprising a cytokinin, a surfactant, an anti-foam agent, a buffering system, an anti-freeze agent, and an anti-settling system, dispersed in water.

Water-dispersible plant growth regulating concentrate and processes for making and using same

The invention relates to the use of gibberellin 7 (GA7) for thinning of stone fruit, wherein the use comprises applying the GA7 to stone fruit in a first year by foliar spray within 12 weeks after full bloom, to achieve thinning in the following year. The stone fruit can be peach, nectarine, apricot, cherry, mirabelle or plum, preferably peach or nectarine. GA7 is used or applied in the period of 4 to 12 weeks after full bloom in the first year. The GA7, if used in admixture with GA4, has relative amounts of GA7 to GA4 of 70% GA7 or more and 30% GA4 or less.

Use of a chemical agent for thinning of stone fruit

Water soluble plant growth regulating compositions in granule form and methods for making and using same. The granules comprise an active medium, a carrier medium and optionally a surfactant, wherein the active medium comprises: a gibberellin, a cytokinin, and an auxin. The inventive compositions are shelf stable and may be completely dissolved in water prior to application on a plant or seed.
