| Overview |
B-Nine SP is a water soluble plant growth regulator which produces hardier, more compact and uniform ornamental plants, with improved flowering and foliage. |
| General Instructions |
Equipment Apply using well maintained and accurately calibrated equipment.
Mixing Dissolve B-Nine SP in water and add to the spray tank. Unused solution may be stored overnight in a cool place in a sealed plastic container.
Compatibility Always apply B-Nine SP alone. Do not add extra wetting agent or mix with other pesticides as foliage damage may occur.
Shelf Life When stored appropriately this product should show no significant degradation for 2 years from the date of manufacture. Contact your supplier for further information about the use of any product that is older than this.
Directions for Use B-NINE SP is systemic and must be absorbed through the leaves. It is not effective as a soil drench. Apply as a fine spray to give complete even wetting, just prior to runoff. Apply under slow drying, mild conditions in morning or evening, to allow more effective absorption and reduce the possibility of crop damage. Foliage should be dry, and plants well watered at spraying. After spraying do not water or apply other sprays for 24 hours.
As new varieties may react differently, treat a small number of plants at a low rate and observe the response.
First Aid If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting. For advice contact the National Poisons Centre 0800 POISON (0800 764 766) or a doctor immediately. If skin or hair contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and flush skin and hair with running water. If splashed in eyes, wash out immediately with water. If inhaled, move the victim to fresh air immediately.
