What should I do if it rains shortly after application?
If rain occurs within a few hours of application, it may reduce the effectiveness. You may need to reapply the product once the foliage is dry.
Troubleshooting
Product not spraying evenly
Ensure the spray nozzle is clean and not blocked. Rinse the nozzle with water if necessary. Check that the dip tube is submerged in the liquid.
Visible signs of disease persist after application
Ensure the product is applied correctly and consistently as per label instructions. Application frequency may need adjustment based on environmental conditions. Severe infestations may require additional horticultural practices.
Leaves appear discoloured after application
Avoid spraying in direct sunlight or during very hot weather, as this can cause leaf scorch. Apply in the cooler parts of the day (early morning or late evening). If the issue persists, discontinue use and consult the product label for any specific contraindications.
