    Features & Benefits

    Product Information

    Sulfur may damage some crops under certain climatic conditions, such as when temperature is high. Crops grown in greenhouses may be much more sensitive to sulfur injury, so use the lowest labeled rate when using the product on a certain crop for the first time. If no crop injury is observed following treatment, then the application rate may be increased if needed.

    Spreaders / stickers are not required for use with this product. If spreaders / stickers are used with this product, foliar injury may be enhanced under high temperatures.

    When growing crops for processing, consult the processor before applying this product.

    Use Restrictions: Do not use on any crop unless sulfur has been shown to be safe in your locality. Do not allow spray to drift into sulfur-sensitive crops such as Apricots, Cranberries, D’Anjou pears and Spinach and during the growing season. Do not apply this product if temperature will exceed 90°F within the three days following spraying due to the risk of crop injury. Do not use within two weeks of an oil spray treatment except for dormant, delayed-dormant or post-harvest applications with suitable oil. For Citrus, do not apply within 21 days of an oil spray.

    Note: The application rates specified for each crop are the maximum that can be applied. These amounts may be reduced if experience or local practice indicates that lesser amounts may be effective. Consult State Agriculture Experiment Station or State Extension Service Specialist for lower rates recommended in your local area.

    IMPORTANT: In order to obtain effective Mite and disease control, both the upper and lower sides of plant foliage and fruit must be thoroughly covered by spray solution of this product. Poor spray coverage will result in poor Mite and disease control.

    NUTRIENT USE

    Product applications will provide sulfur needed to meet the plant’s nutrient requirements and should be considered for use in total nutrient applications. This product can be used as a micronutrient supplement when applied on the foliage or soil to the crops listed on this label. Consult your State Agricultural Experiment Station or Extension Specialist for advice in selecting treatments that best fit local conditions.

    Applications & Uses

    User Safety Recomendation

    USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

    Users should: 1) Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.

    2) Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.

    Direction For Use

    It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your state or tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

    Agricultural Use Requirements

    Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This standard con-tains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, greenhouses and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Restricted Entry Interval (REI). The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.

    Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval of 48 hours. For greenhouse uses, do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the REI of 24 hours.

    For at least seven days following the application of Copper-contain-ing products in greenhouses:

    •  at least one container or station designed specifically for flushing eyes is available in operating condition with the WPS-required decontamination supplies for workers entering the area treated with Copper-containing products,

    •  workers are informed orally, in a manner they can understand:

    –  that residues in the treated area may be highly irritating to their eyes,

    –  that they should take precautions, such as refraining from rub-bing their eyes, to keep the residues out of their eyes,

    –  that if they do get residues in their eyes, they should immedi-ately flush their eyes with the eye flush container that is located with the decontamination supplies and

    – how to operate the eye flush container or eye flush station.

    PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with any-thing that has been treated, such as plants, soil or water is: Coveralls, chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material, shoes plus socks and protective eyewear.

    Non-Agricultural Use Requirements

    The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries or greenhouses.

    Do not enter or allow others to enter the treated area until sprays have dried.

    Avoid working in spray mist.

    Keep all unprotected persons out of operating areas or vicinity where there may be danger of drift.

    Certain states may require more restrictive re-entry intervals; consult your State Department of Agriculture for further information.
