GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
FRUIT QUALITY (GRAPES)
Bunch Elongation (Stretch): This product sprayed
onto bunch stems when bunches are half to two-thirds
of their final length (usually 10 to 15cm), causes them
to grow longer than normal and may prevent over-
tightness
of
bunches.
This
application
is
usually
applied 10 to 14 days before the first sign of bloom.
THINNING: If sprayed on flowers as they are beginning
to open, this product reduces the number of berries on
the bunch, ie it has a thinning effect.
BERRY SIZE: This product increases berry size when
applied after the commencement of flowering. The
effect is greatest when applied at shatter.
WINE GRAPES: This product sprayed onto bunch
stems at EL17 to EL25 causes them to grow longer
than
normal
and
may
prevent
over-tightness
of
bunches,
enabling
better
air
circulation
within
bunches and better fungicide penetration into the
bunches.
MIXING
Prepare a concentrate solution in 1 to 5 L of water with
sufficient product for the required vat volume and
strength of spray, add solution to water in the spray vat
and agitate.
Citrus only: Ensure the spray mix is in the pH range of
4.0 to 6.0, however optimum results occur when the
spray mix is in the pH range of 4.0 to 4.5. Use a
portable pH meter or calibrated pH strips to determine
the spray mix pH. Sample 2 or 3 times and average
the reading. Adjust high pH's with a suitable acidifying
solution and recheck the pH after 5 minutes agitation.
WETTING AGENT: Add a maximum of 100 ppm of a non-
ionic spreader.
Citrus only: If using an adjuvant which includes a
spreader, do not add additional spreader.
PRECAUTIONS
Use all solutions on the day of preparation.
CROP MANAGEMENT
Fresh Sultanas: Prune according to the vigour of the
vine. Avoid exceeding 8 canes except in special
circumstances. Commence thinning in late October.
Thin bunches to leave one bunch per shoo
