Agriculture

Spray with sufficient solution to wet foliage, but not to the point of runoff. (Row crops: 10 fl. oz. to 2 quarts per acre) Apply 2–3 times per growing season. Plants need to be just past the seedling stage and true leaves should be present – about 25% coverage of the ground before the first application. Second application is usually just before flowering, or just before the onset of the reproductive stage of the crop. The third application would be early in the grain fill or fruit/vegetable sizing stage. (Tree and Vine crops: 1–2 quarts per acre) Apply 2–3 times per growing season when leaves are present.

Succulent plants: Mix 64 fl.oz. in 100 gallons water

Woody plants: Mix 96 fl. oz. in 100 gallons water

Spray with sufficient solution to wet foliage, but not to the point of runoff. Apply every 14–21 days or as needed.
