Plant protection product MaxCel UPL - usage instructions:

  • For optimal product effect, air temperature during 2-3 days after application should be between 20-25°C. Lower temperatures do not affect treatment efficacy if the daytime temperature reaches at least 15°C.
  • Air temperature above 30°C may intensify the thinning process.
  • High relative humidity positively affects the product's action. Leaves should be dry during treatment.
  • Rainfall or irrigation within 4 hours after treatment may reduce product efficacy.
  • The optimal pH of water used to prepare the spray liquid should be between pH 5 and pH
  • Do not use water with pH ≥ 8.5 to prepare the spray liquid.
  • For varieties difficult to thin, use higher doses within the recommended range. This is especially important during cool weather.
  • For varieties easy to thin, use lower doses within the recommended range.
  • Do not use the product in orchards stressed by drought or low temperatures.
  • Depending on the cultivated variety of apple and pear trees and environmental conditions, it cannot be excluded that after using the plant growth regulator, treated trees may show too strong or too weak thinning effect. Therefore, consultation with the authorisation holder or their representative is recommended before use.
