Reddy IT® is a specialized utility modifier that acts as a water conditioner and water buffer that widens the conditions under which glyphosate, auxins and/or sulphonyl urea products are useful while maintaining the integrity of the spray diluent. Reddy IT® does not modify or enhance the physical or chemical characteristics of herbicide products. Conditions that allow for wider use include optimizing the pH of well, river or dug out water; minimizing calcium caking in sprayers and buffering spray water to keep the “herbicide active ingredient intact”. For applicators who traditionally use a water conditioner/ pH adjuster/buffering agent (water from dugouts/ponds/ wells, rivers).

Features & Benefits

Labeling Claims
Features
  • Maintains performance of systemic pesticides that increase in activity at a pH below 6
  • Reduces loss of activity in hard water resulting in better performance
  • Low use rate: 1.5 to 3L/1000 liters of spray (use low rates for foliar sprays on horticulture crops) use 2.5 to 3 L for insecticides, fungicides and herbicides like diquat and glyphosate.
  • Safe on all crops before and after bloom
  • Lowers spray water pH to stabilize activity of systemic insecticides and fungicides
  • Compatibility: maintains the integrity of the spray solution when applying foliar fertilizers
  • High tech, highly active, patented formulation
  • Cost effective
Benefits
  • Reddy IT® a superior pH adjuster for certain acid loving pesticides like 2,4-D & dicamba
  • Reddy IT® places pesticides in a better pH range for quick absorption
  • Reddy IT® is particularly useful with sulfonyl urea pesticides
  • Reddy IT® is non corrosive and totally suitable for aerial and ground application
  • Reddy IT® reduces volatility loss of hormone herbicides from leaf surfaces

Applications & Uses

Application Rates

Reddy IT® use rates are 0.15 – 0.3 Liter v/v per 100 liters of water or 28 – 56 mls/acre at 5 GPA. The most common use rate is 50 mls/acre.

Other Uses The addition of a water conditioner/pH adjuster can also widen the conditions of use to some pesticides or pesticide tank mix combinations. Reddy IT® when added to spray water, may be applied by ground or aerial spray equipment. For most applications, use enough Reddy IT® solution to allow uniform wetting and deposition of the spray onto leaf surfaces without undue runoff.

Mixing

Prior to application, all spray mixing and application equipment must be thoroughly cleaned. Carefully observe all cleaning directions on the pesticide label.

  1. Fill spray tank one-half full with clean water and begin agitation.
  2. Add water conditioner/pH adjuster Reddy IT® at the desired rate.
  3. Allow time to thoroughly agitate and add the required rate of herbicide per hectare (acre) as per label directions.
  4. If spraying a dry herbicide, such as an SU, put that product in the spray tank first and mix it thoroughly before putting in the Reddy IT®.
  5. Continue agitation and complete filling of the spray tank.
  6. Allow a few minutes for proper mixing ahead of application
Use

Reddy IT® Easy To Use Rates: 1.5 to 3 liters per 1000 liters of spray water (30 to 60 mls at 5 gpa)

  • Use: 1.5 liters in 1000 liters (30mls in 5gpa) of spray solution when Reddy IT® is used under ideal weather and crop conditions. Also for Foliar Spray use with systemic insecticides and fungicides.
  • Use: 2.5 to 3 liters in 1000 liters (50 to 60 mls in 5 gpa) of spray solution when Reddy IT® is used when environmental conditions, water quality and or weed sizes make weed control difficult. Use the higher rates with herbicides such as paraquat, glyphosate or a sulphonyl urea.

Do not use with contact fungicides such as captan, mancozeb or chlorothalonil.

General Mixing Instructions
  1. Fill spray tank 1/2 to 3/4’s full of water. Maintain good agitation.
  2. Add Reddy IT® first or last to spray tank (last when using sulphonyl urea herbicides).
  3. Flush inductor/injector with water before adding pesticides.
  4. Add glyphosate or hormone /systemic type pesticides and fertilizers.
  5. Finish adding water to desired spray solution volume—continue agitation and apply.
