Plagron Vita Race 0.5l
Plagron Vita Race 0.5L – Iron foliar spray for enhanced photosynthetic performance
Every watt of light energy that reaches the canopy is only as productive as the chlorophyll available to capture it. Plagron Vita Race is the organic foliar fertiliser that ensures your plants operate at peak photosynthetic efficiency by supplying iron — the critical building block of chlorophyll — directly through the leaf surface. The 0.5L format is the most practical mid-range volume in the Plagron product lineup, yielding up to 100 litres of spray solution for weeks of consistent foliar application.
The science of foliar iron delivery
Iron deficiency manifests as interveinal chlorosis — a progressive yellowing of leaf tissue that signals declining photosynthetic capacity. Root-zone iron supplementation is often slow and subject to pH-dependent lockout. Vita Race bypasses these limitations entirely by delivering 8% iron directly through the stomata, the fastest absorption pathway available. Combined with phosphorus and potassium (NPK 0-5-8), the formula supports both chlorophyll biosynthesis and the energy metabolism that drives vegetative expansion and early flower initiation.
- Direct foliar uptake: nutrients reach the site of action without root transport delays or pH-related lockout.
- Certified organic formula: compatible with biological cultivation methods on all peat and coco substrates.
- Stress resistance enhancement: protection against elevated salinity, thermal stress and foliar dehydration.
- Branching stimulation: more lateral growth points translate directly to increased flowering sites.
Dosage and application
Shake vigorously before use. Dilute a maximum of 5 ml per litre of water (1:200) and spray weekly onto foliage until runoff. Apply early morning when stomata are fully open for maximum absorption. Continue through the vegetative phase and the first three weeks of bloom. The 0.5L format produces up to 100 litres of spray solution. Vita Race is compatible with peat and coco but not with hydroponic systems (NFT, DWC, aeroponics). When using irrigation equipment, flush distribution lines after application to prevent organic residue buildup.

Can Vita Race be added to the nutrient reservoir instead of spraying?
While Vita Race can be added to nutrient solution for root uptake, it performs significantly better as a foliar spray. Stomatal absorption delivers nutrients directly to the leaf tissue where they are needed, bypassing the slower root transport pathway. For optimal results, always prioritise foliar application.
The Vita Race solution has a strange odour or appears cloudy. Is this normal?
This is completely normal and poses no risk to your plants. The organic ingredients in Vita Race initiate a natural bacterial process when mixed with water. This can produce an odour and cloudiness but has no negative impact on product efficacy or plant health.
How many litres of spray solution does the 0.5L format yield?
At the maximum dosage of 5 ml per litre of water, the 0.5L bottle produces up to 100 litres of ready-to-use spray solution. With weekly applications, this volume covers several months of foliar feeding on a standard indoor cultivation setup.
Why should foliar spraying stop after the third week of flowering?
From the fourth week of flowering, the plant shifts metabolic priority entirely to flower production. Foliar feeding becomes less effective as the plant enters full generative mode. Additionally, residual moisture on developing flowers increases the risk of mould formation in enclosed growing environments.
