Guaranteed Analysis

Foliar application of Vitalnova Prime at 1L per Ha every Copper (Cu) 4.00% 10-15 days (1ml per litre) | 0.5 per Ha every 7 days (0.5ml Sulfur (S) 2.00% per litre). For fertigation apply between 1L per Ha (1ml per litre). Product performs best if used within 24 months of Derived from Copper sulfate the date of manufacture. Half fill the tank with water before adding the required amount of Vitalnova Prime stir the solution during mixing and during spraying operations. If mixing this product with other plant protection products, it is advisable to check the physical compatibility prior to mixing in the tank.
