Application Guidelines (For best results):
- Apply sufficient water to achieve complete crop coverage to the point of runoff.
- Avoid spraying during strong sunlight or high temperatures.
- Apply early morning or late afternoon, especially when temperatures exceed 28°C.
- Young foliage and drought- or stress-affected crops are more susceptible to leaf scorch.
- Under stressful growing conditions, reduce application rates and shorten spray intervals.
Mixing Instructions:
- Fill the spray tank halfway with clean water and begin agitation.
- Shake the container thoroughly.
- Add the required amount of Cigophos Ca.
- Add the remaining water while maintaining agitation.
- When tank mixing with other products, add Cigophos Ca last.
- Do not allow the spray mixture to stand without agitation.
- Thoroughly clean spray equipment after use.
Storage:
- Store in the original sealed container.
- Protect from frost.
- Shelf life: 30 months when stored under recommended conditions.
Key Advantages:
- High-analysis Calcium and Phosphorus Foliar Fertiliser.
- Improves Fruit Firmness, Quality, and post-harvest performance.
- Corrects Calcium and Phosphorus Deficiencies.
- Active pH Complex improves Nutrient Uptake and spray water quality.
- Particularly effective in hard water conditions.
- Suitable for a wide range of Fruit and Vegetable Crops.
Caution:
Use strictly according to label directions.
