Size: Pint (Concentrate)
Directions for Use:
Shake well before use. Most conventional liquid pesticide plant sprayers can be used to apply this product to plants. Mix 0.5 to 2 fluid ounces of this product in a gallon of water. Unless otherwise stated in specific application notes, apply 1.1 to 2.3 gallons of diluted spray per 1,000 square feet.
For best control, start spraying before the disease is visible or when disease is first visible on the plant. Spray all plant parts thoroughly (top and bottom of leaves), and unless otherwise directed in the crop table, repeat every 7 to 10 days. Use the higher rate to control diseases that may go dormant and overwinter. See application notes for specific crop application intervals. If possible, time applicaiton so that at least 12 hours of dry weather follows application. Re-apply after rain, following crop specific application interval.
Hydroponic Use: Apply as soon as disease appears, or as a preventative spray 2 weeks before disease normally appears. Apply as a foliar spray only. Do not apply directly to the water in hyroponic growing systems. Discarded water from hydroponic growing systems may be used in greenhouses and to water indoor and outdoor container plants and garden areas. Water from these systems is prohibited from being discarded directly into a water source.
Powdery Mildew: Spray the plants at the minimum application interval during the first 2 weeks after emergence.
Downy Mildew, Leaf and Fruit Spots, Blights and Rust: Begin treatment 2 weeks before disease normally appears or when weather forecasts predict a long period of wet weather. Alternatively, begin treatment when disease first appears, and repeat as long as needed.
Fruit Rot: Apply at the start of flowering and unless otherwise directed in the crop table, repeat every 7 to 10 days until harvest. Fungicidal sprays are especially warranted when weather forecasts predict a long period of wet weather.
