Planting | GOAL | REASON |
4-6 oz RENEW per acreSpray over seedbed | Stimulate soil microorganisms and trigger for growth and disease resistance. | The application of RENEW is going to stimulate the soil microorganisms activity to give a ready supply of nutrients to the new onion plants. |
Spray Program | GOAL | REASON |
1st spraying: 8-16 ounces of FOLIARPLEX per acreSubsequent Sprayings 16-32 oz FOLIARPLEX per acre |
Increase growth/bulking, disease resistance, trigger plant reaction | Each spray application can be applied with fungicides and/or insecticides. We suggest using their lowest recommended label rates. FOLIARPLEX helps make the fungicides and insecticides act in a systemic way for longer retention and kill effects. Most growers extend spray program 2 to 4 days beyond normal rotation, eliminating two to three sprayings per growing season. |
Herbicide Spray Program | ||
Apply 16 fl oz phLAME per 100 gallon tank mix with contact herbicides. | ||
Fungicide Spray Program | ||
Apply 16 – 32 fl oz SS 9 per 100 gallon tank mix with fungicide. | ||
Note about Spraying:We strongly recommend using an adjuvant with your onion spray program. AgPro™ specialty surfactants (SS 9,SPREADER STICKER, phLAME) have proven cost effective with spray applications of chemicals (fungicides, herbicides, pesticides) to allow lowest label rates with better results. The synergy can add potency and extend the chemical life and have allowed some growers to experiment and get exceptional results with well under label rates.
Please ask your AgPro™ representative for the appropriate product for your needs and grower’s experiences in your area. |
