General Instructions for Nimbus WG Fungicide/Miticide:

Product Characteristics:

• Micronised formulation with good spreading and sticking properties.
• Provides fumigant action and long residual effect.

Mixing:

• Add the recommended quantity directly to water in the spray vat with agitators running.
• If used in a mixture, ensure correct mixing sequence and continuous agitation.

Application:

• Spray volume varies depending on crop and its size.
• Increase volumes as the crop grows.
• Ensure correct rate per hectare.
• Higher rates only in favorable disease development conditions.
• Water volumes range from 400L per hectare (for some vegetables) to 8,000L for large tree crops.

Application Process:

1. Fill the vat no more than 25% full with clean water before adding Nimbus WG.
2. Begin agitating vat contents vigorously and continue throughout mixing and spraying.
3. Pour required amount of Nimbus WG into vat, allowing bypass agitation for complete dispersion.
4. Do not dump Nimbus WG into vat all at once.
5. After adding, continue to fill vat with water to desired level for spraying.
6. Thorough agitation should continue during the entire spraying operation.
7. Do not leave spray solution standing in the vat overnight.

Tank Mixing:

• When mixing with other microgranule (MG), water dispersible granule (WG), or wettable powder (WP) formulations, add and mix well before adding emulsifiable concentrate (EC) or suspension concentrate (SC) products.
• Premix wettable powder (WP) formulations separately before adding to the spray tank.

Application in Tree Crops and Vines:

Dilute Spraying:

• Use a sprayer for high water volumes up to the point of run-off, matched to the crop.
• Set up and operate for even coverage throughout the crop canopy.
• Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off, avoiding excess run-off.
• Determine water volume through tests or expert advice.
• Add the specified amount of product for each 100L of water.
• Spray to the point of run-off.
• Adjust dilute spray volume and sprayer setup as the crop grows.

Concentrate Spraying:

• Use a sprayer designed for concentrate spraying.
• Achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy with chosen water volume.
• Determine appropriate dilute spray volume for the crop canopy.
• Calculate concentrate mixing rate.
• Adjust spray volume, product amount, and sprayer setup as the crop grows.

Example for Concentrate Spraying:

• Dilute spray volume: e.g., 2,000L/ha
• Chosen spray volume: e.g., 500L/ha
• Concentration factor: 4x (2,000L ÷ 500L = 4)
• If dilute label rate is 200g/100L, concentrate rate becomes 4 x 200, which is 800g/100L of concentrate spray.

Sulphur Shy Fruit & Vegetables:

• Seek advice from local authorities/Department of Agriculture if unsure about sensitivity to sulphur sprays.

Compatibility:

• Compatible with wettable powder formulations of most commonly used fungicides, insecticides, and miticides.
• Avoid combinations with emulsion or miscible oils on tender crops.
• DO NOT MIX WITH LIME SULPHUR OR OTHER HIGHLY ALKALINE MATERIALS.

Resistance Warning:

• Group M2 Fungicide.
• Fungicide resistance management is important.
• Grochem Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for losses resulting from product failure to control resistant fungi.

Precautions:

• DO NOT contaminate waterways with chemical or used containers.

Storage and Disposal:

• Keep out of reach of children.
• Store in a closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area.
• Triple rinse containers before disposal and deliver to an approved waste management facility.
• If no facility available, bury empty packaging in compliance with regulations.
• DO NOT burn empty containers or product.
