DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

RESTRICTIONS OR WARNING
The maximum concentrations of 5ml product/2-4 litres water must not be exceeded. Do not use this product in a re-circulating irrigation/drip system. On plants of unknown tolerance, test on a small scale first, particularly when using on young plants. To reduce damage it is recommended to wash any PROPLANT solution off the plants after application. Consult processor before using on crops being grown for processing. Do not apply under hot sunny conditions, during frost or when plants are under stress.

DISEASES CONTROLLED
PROPLANT is a soluble concentrate carbamate fungicide containing propamocarb hydrochloride. It is a semi-systemic fungicide for preventative use especially active against Oomycetes fungi of genera Pythium, Phytophthora and Peronospora causing damping-off, root and stem rot and leaf blight. It is applied as a preventative soil drench. In humid soil, the product is well absorbed through the roots and transported acropetally.

CROP-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Method and rates of application
PROPLANT must be applied preventatively as a soil drench to protect germinating seeds, seedlings, cuttings, pot or container plants and transplants. To achieve maximum distribution and effectiveness, soil or compost must be moist. For drenching, use sufficient water volume to allow the product to penetrate thoroughly the rooting zone. PROPLANT should not be applied to dry soil or compost. Treated soil must be kept under normal moisture conditions to enable continuous absorption by the roots. Apply 5 ml product per m2 soil before or immediately after sowing, before or immediately after pricking out. Apply the recommended rate of PROPLANT in 2 to 4 litres of water per m2 depending on humidity of the soil and deepness of substrate.

MIXING, SPRAYING AND COMPATIBILITY
Mixing
Ensure that mixing container and/or sprayer is clean and in good working order. Half fill container or sprayer with clean water. Add the required quantity of PROPLANT and begin agitation. Add the remainder of the water and mix thoroughly. Once made up do not store. Thoroughly rinse application equipment three times with water after use.

Compatibility
PROPLANT is compatible with tolclofos-methyl and may be applied as a combined treatment using 5 ml PROPLANT with 2 g of a 50% WP tolclofos-methyl based product (MAPP No. 07494) per m2 in sufficient water (minimum 2 litres). First dilute tolclofos-methyl before adding PROPLANT. Continuous agitation during the application is recommended.

RESISTANCE
