GENERAL INFORMATION
This product is a plant growth regulator which penetrates plant tissues and degrades to ethylene which affects the growth process of the plant. This product can be applied as foliar applications to cotton to accelerate boll opening and improve defoliation. These features permit harvest to occur sooner and more efficiently, and may increase yields compared to untreated cotton fields. When this product is applied as foliar sprays to mature tobacco (flue-cured), the leaves uniformly turn yellow. This feature provides flexibility in scheduling harvest and also reduces curing time.
