USE INFORMATION
ORTHENE 90 S a soluble powder is an insecticide for control of pests on selected agricultural crops and in certain non-crop areas. The active ingredient in ORTHENE 90 S is acephate, a water-soluble insecticide readily absorbed by plant roots and foliage to give systemic control of feeding insects. Insect pests are generally controlled more effectively by ORTHENE 90 S through ingestion than by contact. Application of ORTHENE 90 S to maintain control should be repeated only as directed.
To ensure that ORTHENE 90 S, a soluble powder, is compatible with the variety or cultivar of the listed ornamental crops under your specific conditions, test the product on a limited scale and observe for phytotoxicity over two weeks before making large scale applications. The large number of existing ornamental varieties and cultivars coupled with the constant introduction of new variants precludes specific testing of each type. It is impossible to field test this product in every locale where sold or in all of the combinations created by differences including those in soil or media type, pH, moisture of fertility, environment conditions such as temperature, lighting or degree days and horticultural practice including planting dates, control of other pests, timing of various horticultural practice and the manner of use and application of this product.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY RESULT IN POOR INSECT CONTROL, CROP INJURY AND/OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES.
