FRUIT RUSSET SUPPRESSION IN APPLES
Pro Vide is a plant growth regulator containing gibberellins ~A7 which may reduce the development of physiological fruit russeting in apples when applied in a post-bloom spray program. Used in years when russet conditions are present, Pro Vide may boost overall fresh market grades of the crop. Physiological russeting is generally associated with the presence of water on the fruit surface during the first 30-40 days of fruit development. Russet severity at a given location is therefore specifically influenced by the weather conditions during and following the bloom period. The key conditions influencing russet include precipitation, humidity and temperature. Pro Vide may act only on that russet caused by climatic factors active early in fruit development and will not reduce damage associated with mechanical forces such as limb or pedicel rub, insect damage, or russet produced by certain pesticides.

APPLICATION RATE
Apply 26 to 40 fluid ounces per acre for a total seasonal rate.

TIMING OF APPLICATION
Apply Pro Vide as two to four consecutive sprays beginning at petal fall, and 'continuing at 7 to 10-day intervals. This spray timing corresponds to the most sensitive russet development period shown to occur in apples.

METHOD OF APPLICATION
Apply 10 fluid ounces* (IS ppm) to 13 fluid ounces (20 ppm) of ProVide in 100 gallons of water per acre, per application for 2 to 4 total applications. Number and rate of applications should be based on both tree size and local weather conditions. In general, as tree size and overall rainfall increase, the number and rate of applications should be increased. This increase is necessary to maintain adequate coverage of the developing fruit surface during the most sensitive russet period.
NOTE: No more than 40 fluid ounces of ProVide should be applied per season.
