3. Key Active Components & Mode of Action

• Alginic acid & polysaccharides → improve soil structure, water retention, cation exchange capacity
• Natural plant growth regulators (cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins) → stimulate cell division, root development, flowering, and fruit setting
• Mannitol & betaines → osmotic stress protection, antioxidant activity
• Amino acids & peptides → chelate micronutrients, enhance nutrient uptake
• Trace elements in natural chelated form → high bioavailability
