Soil Application :
- Dissolve 1-2 teaspoons (4-8 grams) of Actinovate LG per 2 gallons of water to create a solution.
- For more severe disease pressure or likelihood of disease pressure, use higher label rate. Apply solution to pot, base of plant, or roots of plant by watering until soil is completely saturated without creating runoff. One cup of solution usually treats about one 6" pot or its equivalent. For best results, apply to damp soil and/or apply in conjunction with a wetting agent. Pre-dampened soil will allow the Actinovate Lawn and Garden microorganism to work to the root system of the plant much more easily. Apply Actinovate Lawn and Garden at any stage of the crop life.
- For best results, apply as early as possible such as at seeding, transplant or potting stage. Reapply every 2-12 weeks as needed. Apply product with watering can, hose end sprayer or similar devices.
Foliar Spray:
- Dissolve 1-2 teaspoons (4-8 grams) of Actinovate LG per 2 gallons of water to create solution.
- For more severe disease pressure or likelihood of disease pressure, use higher rates. Spray leaves, stems, and new shoots to runoff providing complete coverage of entire plant. For best results, apply product prior to disease development or at the first sign of infection. Repeat at 7-day intervals to protect new foliage. Under conditions of heavy rainfall, it may be necessary to reapply the product after the rain has stopped. Do not water foliage within 4 hours of application. Use a pump bottle, hand-held pump, backpack or similar type of spray equipment.
- For best results, use a spreader-sticker (a product designed to break the surface tension of water and evenly spread it over the surface of the foliage) in conjunction with application. Consult your garden center or dealer for specific product suggestions.
