Even novice gardeners will not argue with the fact that succinic acid is quite an accessible and, perhaps for that reason, popular drug.

Many gardeners and vegetable growers call this product a fertilizer without any hesitation, although in reality this is not the case.

According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , succinic acid can be called an immunomodulator, stress adaptogen and growth stimulator.

But, despite the fact that the drug performs its tasks perfectly, it has nothing to do with fertilizers.

Instead, you can use succinic acid to treat seeds or seedlings.

Succinic acid stimulates the production of chlorophyll, which accelerates and stimulates the development of crops planted on the site.

Finally, the drug is simply created to promote faster and more complete absorption of nutrients.
