A buffering agent for the correction of the water pH in alkaline spray mixtures.

Apple
  • Used mainly to decrease alkaline hydrolysis (degradation of insecticides in high pH water).
  • True buffer that reduces and stabilizes the spray solution pH to between 4 and 6 (typically pH 4.5 – 5.5), where most insecticides are most stable.
  • Will not decrease the pH to extremely low levels, especially when using water with a low buffering capacity.
  • Add to the spray tank before the alkaline hydrolysis-sensitive insecticide.
  • Do not use as a standard practice, but only when labels specifically recommend acidification.
  • 0.05 – 0.1 % (50 – 100 mℓ/100 ℓ spray solution)
  • Use the higher rate in water with a high alkalinity (buffering capacity)
