Foliar Application: MilStop is available in 5 or 25 lb. containers and has no special storage conditions. To prevent foliar fungal disease, apply at 2.5 lbs./acre every two weeks until conditions are no longer favorable for disease development. Shorten the interval during rainy weather or during periods of high relative humidity. To cure powdery mildew, apply up to the maximum rate (5 lbs./acre) every week for three weeks. Uniform and complete coverage using a properly calibrated sprayer (checking the calibration frequently) is essential for the best results. No need to add a surfactant, it is already in the formulation.
