GENERAL PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
As a Dust: Control of disease depends upon thorough and
complete application (a thin, uniform film) to both tops and
undersides of leaves. Small canisters may be used as a duster
by partially crushing and rapidly squeezing the sides in upright
position, or use a good pressure duster. Application when wind
is very light or absent, usually early morning or evening, will
prevent drift and loss of product to adjacent areas.
As a Spray: (Using hand or tank sprayers) – Consult spray
