Recommended application rates
Do not spray after button formation. Kelpak can be applied in mixes with other pesticides and foliar nutrients, but pH of spray solution should be below 7 for optimum results.
Repeat foliar application
Repeat once or twice at 14 day intervals.
Direct seeding
Start with foliar application at 3 to 4-leaf stage for direct seeded crops.
