OHP Announces Name Change for PGR, Adds Sales Manager

OHP is changing the name of its paclobutrazol-based plant growth regulator (PGR) to Pac 0, effective immediately.

Formerly known as Paczol, Pac O contains the same active ingredient (AI), same AI concentration (0.4 percent), same gallon size, and identical use rate recommendations.  

Users should be aware that Pac O has a new EPA registration number.

OHP will maintain Paczol state registrations in the near term until supplies are exhausted in the field.

The company also announced that it has hired Ron Ostrander as a regional sales manager.

“We are ecstatic to add Ron to our sales team,” say Troy Bettner, OHP head of sales and marketing. “He is a proven, experienced performer and is well-liked and respected by his grower customers and distributor sales people.”

Ostrander is based in Apopka, and covers Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi.

Prior to joining OHP, Ostrander’s experience includes sales and commercial roles at Chemlawn, VJ Growers Supply, ProSource One, and most recently the HC Companies.

“With his diverse background and experience in the horticultural market, Ron is a valuable resource for his customers,” adds Bettner. “He is extremely knowledgeable about growing and providing marketplace solutions.”
