Mixing
Add the required amount of product/water soluble sachets directly to the spray tank when about one third full with agitation in motion. Add any other products once STAMINA has dispersed. If pre-mixing, use at least two litres of water per 60g of product. Do not mix with water with high free chlorine content, or with borax, as it may affect the solubility of sachets.

Application
Apply by high volume (dilute) conventional orchard sprayer or by concentrate sprayer. May be applied with hand wands.
Dilute spraying – Apples and Pears: Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the crop being sprayed. Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off. The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes, using different settings on the sprayer, from industry guidelines or expert advice. Add the amount of product specified in the Directions for Use table for each 100 L of water. Spray to the point of run-off. The required dilute spray volume may change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed, as the crop grows.
Concentrate spraying – Apples and Pears: Use a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off) and matched to the crop being sprayed. Set and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy using your chosen water volume.
Determine an appropriate dilute spray volume (see Dilute spraying above) for the crop canopy. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate. The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way.

Example only
1. Dilute spray volume as determined above: for example 2000L/ha
2. Your chosen concentrate spray volume: for example 500L/ha
3. The concentration factor in this example is 4 x (ie, 2000L ÷ 500L = 4)
4. If the dilute label rate is 12 g/ 100L then the concentrate rate becomes 4 x 12, that is 48 g / 100L of concentrate spray.
The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100L of water, and the sprayer set up and operation may need to be changed as the crop grows. For further information on concentrate spraying, user are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.
Application in vineyards: Stamina Systemic Fungicide may be applied with conventional drive past orchard sprayers. DO NOT apply be aircraft.
