Mixing and Application instructions

Application Rates

Fruit Crop: 1.0-1.5L Clean Leaf II™ to 100 L of water
Vegetable Crops: 0.75-1.0L Clean Leaf II™ to 100L of water

From 100-550 litres of dilute spray emulsion per acre depending on plant size. Thorough coverage is necessary. A tractor speed of 6-7 kph is recommended. Vary the quantity of spray applied by changing the number of nozzles used, not by changing the tractor speed or spray pressure.

Timing of Application

Spray should be initiated as soon as plants emerge. Plants should be sprayed weekly or bi-weekly.

Equipment

Thorough coverage is essential. Best coverage is achieved with ground equipment using proper spray pressure, litres per acre, nozzles (generally hollow cone), nozzle spacing and tractor speed.
Note: Recommended nozzles are ALBUZ®ATR nozzles, lilac color or their equivalent.
Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

Additional comments

Do not spray wet foliage. Do not spray when freezing temperatures are anticipated within 48 hours of an oil application, above 32 C or when plants are under heat or moisture stress. Do not apply on vegetables when temperatures are below 10C.

Compatibility Information

Add the oil to tank mix formulations as the last ingredient. Local climactic conditions can adversely affect the persistence of oil on a crop. On crops where tank mixes and or spray intervals have not been previously used, spray a small area with the recommended nozzles and spray pressure and wait several days. If sufficient time between sprays has not elapsed, phytotoxicity will normally occur in several days. Chemicals which are phytotoxic when used alone will be more phytotoxic when used with Clean Leaf II™

Tank Mixing: Mix Clean Leaf II™ only with those chemicals registered for use on the specific crop to be treated. When using in tank mixtures observe all limitations, precautions, and rate recommendations which appear on the label for these products: acephate, benomyl, copper ammonium carbonate, copper hydroxide, fenvalerate.
