Humate-based products have been aggressively marketed as biostimulants that increase plant growth. Little data are available on their effect on tree establishment or their interaction with fertilizer and irrigation regimes. This experiment tested several types of biostimulants on posttransplant growth of Acer rubrum L. (red maple) and Crataegus phaenopyrum (Blume) Hara (Washington hawthorn) trees, both with and without irrigation and fertilization. Soil treatments were applied at planting as: 1) control (native backfill only); 2) compost (native backfill + yard-waste compost); 3) peat (native backfill + Canadian sphagnum peat); 4) granular humate, 100 g/tree; 5) granular humate, 200 g/tree; and 6) liquid humate +, a proprietary liquid mixture of humate, kelp extract, thiamine, and intermediate “metabolites.” Irrigation regime × soil treatment interaction was significant for red maple, but soil treatments did not increase height, stem diameter, top dry mass, or root length. For Washington hawthorn, soil treatments did not increase height, stem diameter, or root length, but top dry mass in all treatments as a group and in humate-treated trees in particular was greater than that of controls. Roots of peat-treated trees of both species were longer than those in other treatments. Granular humate applied at 200 g/tree increased total root length more than did 100 g/tree in Washington hawthorn but not in red maple. Fertilizing at planting with N at 14.5 g·m-2 had no effect on any parameter measured for either species.

The authors see energy components extremely relevant for animals and their health. Due to this fact, diets with energy components that satisfy pets with nutrients at different stages of growth is significant issue in veterinary nutrition. This could be achieved when applying diets that contain balanced necessary components. The research aimed at exploring the impact caused by ready diets on the growth and development of dogs that differ in age and breed is fragmentary one. The authors make a case about necessity for detailed investigation the growth parameters of animals when feeding them with this kind of diets in the low temperatures of Western Siberia. The impact of the finished ration on puppy growth and development was investigated in one of the s animal shelters in Novosibirsk in 2016. The main food used in the experiment for feeding puppies was YUMMI PREMIUM; the feed contains proteins - 26%, fats - 10, fiber - 7, ashes - 7, moisture - no more than 10, calcium – 1 and phosphorus - 0,8%. The authors observed that 50% are meat ingredients (beef, chicken, by-products), 35 are cereals (wheat, buckwheat), vegetable oils, dried milk and 5% are vegetables, chicken fat, mannanoligosaccharides (MOS), Shidiger yucca extract and sea kelp extract. The following food additives are included in the feed: Vitamin A (17000 IU/ kg), vitamin D3 (1700 IU/kg), vitamin E (200 mg/kg), B1 (15 mg/kg), B2 (20 mg/kg), B6, B12 (100 mg/kg), K3, niacin (85 mg/kg), pantothenic acid (50 mg/kg), biotin (950 µg/kg), iron, zinc, manganese, copper (20 mg/kg), iodine (2 mg/kg) and selenium (0.25 mg/kg). The food of the experiment was eaten by puppies with great pleasure. This experiment has shown that YUMMI PREMIUM for puppies increase body weight and average daily growth rates, as well as improve the main parameters of dogs development.

Growth of Hibiscus rosasinensis L. `President' under daily irrigation and decreasing irrigation frequency was compared in a 5 pine bark : 4 sedge peat : 1 sand (by volume) medium amended further with 0%, 10%, 20%, or 30% (by volume) Axis, a kiln-fired diatomaceous earth granule. Half of each substrate treatment also was drenched three times with Agroroots, a kelp extract. Shoot and root dry weights were compared after 4.5 months of growth. Container media amended with Axis at 10% volume yielded hibiscus plants with higher shoot dry weights than nonamended media. Root-zone drenches with Agroroots increased shoot dry weights of plants subjected to decreasing irrigation frequency and grown without Axis, but did not significantly affect plants receiving daily irrigation. Shelf-life effects of Axis treatment revealed that all plants reached the permanent wilting point 5 days after cessation of daily irrigation. Both products may allow container plant production with less irrigation. Further tests should be conducted with a broader range of species.
