DIRECTIONS FOR USE

First-Boron is compatible with most liquid fertilizers, micro-nutrients and pesticides. Addition of First-Boron to these products should not be done without first testing compatibility on small scale. When mixing with pesticides, dilute with water prior to the addition of buffering agents and pesticides. Follow all directions and precautions on pesticide labels prior to mixing with First-Boron. FOLIAR APPLICATIONS: Apply with enough carrier to thoroughly cover all foliage. Early morning or late evening applications give the best results. Boron is not easily translocated within the plant, therefore multiple foliar applications at low rates during the growing season are most effective. SOIL APPLICATIONS: Apply with sufficient carrier to give complete coverage. Soil applied boron must be moved into the root zone to be absorbed by the plant. This can be accomplished by irrigation, rainfall, or tillage.

RECOMMENDED RATES

The optimum rate and timing of application will depend on local conditions and should always be made as a result of soil and/or plant tissue analysis in consultation with your local turf/ornamental authorities. In the absence of test results use the following as a guide. Use the following rates with sufficient water for thorough coverage.
