| Timing | Rate |
|---|---|
| Seed treatment | 6–8 oz per 50 lb of seed |
| In-furrow at planting | 16 oz/acre with 10 oz/acre Xylem Plus |
| Broadcast or band soil, before planting or emergence | 16 oz/acre |

- For best results spray when the crop is actively growing after irrigation or rainfall, early in the morning or late in the afternoon.
- Foliar fertilization is intended as a supplement to a regular fertilization program and will not, by itself, provide all the nutrients normally required by agricultural crops.
- Mixing: put 2/3 of the water or fertilizer in the tank, add EnerG Plus and Xylem Plus, then fill with the balance and agitate. Always do a compatibility check.
