BORON

Boron affects the absorption of other nutrients. It also affects the germination of the pollen tube once the pollen grains land on the stigma. Without germination, the seeds are not fertilized and fruits abort.

BORON - DEFICIENCY

Multiple buds will develop with a lack of boron. Leaves will be small and heart rots and corkiness can develop.
