"Tiovit Jet": instructions for use
Depending on what exactly you are processing, the dosage of the drug will vary. You will find more detailed information in the instructions for use for the preparation. And in this article we will analyze the application using the example of grapes.
For example, our goal is to get rid of ticks. Dilute 20 g of the preparation into 5 liters of water. Most often, one time is enough to solve the problem. Otherwise, when re-processing, increase the dosage to 25 g of the drug for the same volume of water.
So it is worth repeating an average of 5 times. The time between treatments should be 7 to 10 days. Depending on the amount of work, 4 liters of the mixture are consumed per bush.
To prevent unpleasant cases, it is not necessary to carry out processing in the wind. And it is advisable to do this in the evening. When processing, make sure that the application is even and that there is no noticeable moisture on the leaves.
First, dilute the solution with a little water. Achieve a slurry consistency and gradually lower the concentration by adding the required volume of water. After completing the work, dispose of the remaining mixture.
Time of action and interaction with other drugs
The action of the drug begins a couple of hours after treatment and lasts from a week to 10 days. If it rains during this period, then the duration of the action is reduced.
The product is compatible with most vegetable and garden products. However, there are some exceptions. If you use preparations based on oils, then for the use of "Tiovit Jet" should take more than two weeks after the last treatment of such a product.
They can also be reused after two weeks after applying the fungicide. Separately, it is worth noting the incompatibility with "Kaptan" when processing American red apple varieties.
