plants in a tube (VVSN 30–32) or when a flag leaf appears (VVSN 37–39) with a consumption rate of 0.5–1.0 l/ha. When introducing increased and high nitrogen rates
fertilizers N100–200, as well as when sowing tall varieties of winter wheat, it is advisable to use a two-time application of a growth regulator: the first in the phase of the beginning of emergence into the tube BBSN 30–32 with a drug consumption rate of 0.5–0.7 l/ha, the second – during the appearance of a flag leaf BBSN 37–39 with a rate of 0.7–1.0 l/ha.
