Before processing, it is important to correctly calculate the amount of the preparation for the preparation of the working solution, its consumption depending on the area. It is also wise to draw up a spray schedule, taking into account the timing, the number of procedures, the interval between them.
To achieve maximum results, carry out processing according to the instructions for use for a particular type of crop:
| Culture | Processing time | Working stock consumption (l / ha) | Amount of dry matter per 10 l of water (g) | Waiting period / maximum number of procedures |
| Fruit trees | Spraying should be performed during the formation of a green cone, the formation of a bud, the end of flowering, during the formation of the first rudiments of fruits | up to 1500 | 20-25 | 8-10/4 |
| Vegetables | The first processing should be carried out at the time of vegetation with an increase in green mass, the subsequent ones - during the formation of buds, at the end of flowering and at the initial stages of vegetable rudiments | 300-600 | 40 | 20/4 |
| Vineyards | Spray plants at the following stages of development: the formation of inflorescences, at the end of flowering, the beginning of fruit formation. Final processing - when the berries are pea-sized | 800-1000 | 25 | 8-10/4 |
If the dosage is exceeded, the agent will instantly turn from a faithful ally into a real disaster.
Working solution treatment rules:
- Carry out the procedure in the evening in the absence of precipitation, strong wind and sunlight. If it starts raining after treatment, it will need to be repeated.
