PLANOFIX (PGR)

• Prevents natural shedding of squares, bolls in cotton, flowers in vegetables, chillies, and fruits like mango
• Reduces pre-harvest berry drop in grapes.
• Increases fruit size in pineapple and grapes.

CROPS AND TARGET PESTS

• Should be sprayed during cool part of the day.
• Though compatible with most pesticides, individual application will give a good result.
• Standard solution : 1 ml Planofix in 4.5 L of water = 10 ppm
  10 ml Planofix in 4.5 L of water = 100 ppm

Pineapple: (a) Apply just before expected flowering. (b) Drench the whole fruit but avoid the spray drift to young crop. (c) Again, wet the whole fruit 2 weeks before harvest.

Tomato: At the time of flowering apply twice.

Chillies: 1. First spray during flowering. 2. Second spray 20-30 days after spray (2 applications).

Mango: 1. First spray when tender fruits are of pea size. 2. Malformation before fruit bud differentiation- approximate 3 month before flowering.

Grapes: 1. First spray at pruning, 2. Second spray when flowering starts.

Grapes: (To control berry drop) Spray on matured grapes branches 10-15 days before harvesting.
