The treatment of plants of this group is carried out with a solution prepared also in a ratio of 250-350 ml per 100 l of water. The exception is those cases when spraying is performed in a greenhouse. The plants are treated with a less concentrated solution (150 ml per 100 l).
As you can see, with regard to garden and horticultural crops, the instructions for use are very simple for the Megafol preparation. When to apply it to agricultural plants? There are also clear recommendations from developers regarding this. So, it is desirable to spray corn and legumes at the stage of tillering and heading.
