The present invention is directed to a new matter of composition in the form of chemical compounds and to a method for enhancing plant growth and the properties exhibited by plants treated with the compounds in accordance with this method. In particular, application of the compounds results in an increase in sugar content, essential oils and proteins along with an increase in total plant biomass. Fruits harvested from treated plants exhibit an accelerated biochemical and structural maturity. Citrus fruits typically show a reduced peel thickness and exhibit significant improvements in vitamin C, carotenoid, and essential oil contents. The methods of the present invention produce balanced improvements in the structural, biochemical, and sensory quality of Citrus fruits.

A method for enhancing plant growth comprised of the steps of applying to a plant a compound selected from the group having the structure: [Figure] wherein: X is either oxygen or sulfur, R1 and R2 are lower alkyl containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, n1 and n2 being integers from 1 to 6 each, n1 and n2 be
A method for enhancing plant growth comprised of the steps of applying to a plant a compound selected from the group having the structure: [Figure] wherein: X is either oxygen or sulfur, R1 and R2 are lower alkyl containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, n1 and n2 being integers from 1 to 6 each, n1 and n2 being independent of each other; R3 and R4 are independently hydrogen, chlorine, fluorine bromine, iodine, lower alkyl containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, lower alkoxy compounds containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or condensed mono-and polycyclic aromatic ring systems, and wherein: if R3 and R4 are 3,5,-substituents, then the lower alkyl or alkoxy group must contain 3 to 6 carbon atoms; and wherein: if R3 is hydrogen, then R4 must be a 4-substituent, with the proviso that R4 is other than hydrogen; or an acid addition salt thereof, said compounds being applied to the plant immediately prior to or at a time when cell differentiation and growth of the plant or flower buds are great, that is, to seeds, to plant seedlings, or to trees during flower bud initiation, bud swell, or during a period of exponential vegetative growth, said compounds being applied in an amount enhancing plant growth but not harming the plant and being applied in an amount of approximately 0.001 to 0.3 mg active ingredient per plant seedling or about 1 to 10 grams active ingredient per tree, said enhancing of plant growth consisting of an increase in photosynthesis, total plant biomass and plant constituents selected from the group consisting of protein, lipid, sugar, and essential oil whereby the compounds biodegrade to elemental form after application to plant tissue.
