- PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated such as, plants, soil or water is:
- Coveralls
- Shoes plus socks
- Chemical resistant gloves made of any waterproof material
- Directions 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 requirement specific to your state or tribe, consult the state or tribal agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
- Kudos 27.5 WDG is a plant growth regulator which inhibits the biosynthesis of gibberellins. Inhibition of gibberellin reduces vegetative growth.
- Thorough spray coverage of plant foliage is necessary for good uptake.
- The performance of Kudos 27.5 WDG can be affected by many factors including: crop growth stage, environmental conditions and crop vigor due to moisture availability, fertility level, etc
- Correct timing of application is critical. Apply Kudos 27.5 WDG to actively growing trees at rates and stages of growth listed in this label.
- Add one pound of a spray grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) for every pound of Kudos 27.5 WDG.
- Use a standard spray adjuvant, preferably a non-ionic surfactant, to improve leaf coverage and performance consistency. Follow the manufacturer’s rate directions.
- Rainfall within 1 hour of application on grass grown for seed and within 8 hours for apples, peanuts, and sweet cherries may reduce the efficacy of Kudos 27.5 WDG.
- Clean spray equipment thoroughly using a strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner according to the manufacturer’s directions before and after applying Kudos 27.5 WDG.
- Directions For Use
- Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
- PESTICIDE STORAGE: Avoid freezing. Store in original container only. In case of leak or spill, use absorbent materials to contain liquids and dispose of as waste.
- PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Wastes resulting from the use of this product may be disposed of on site or at an approved waste disposal facility
- CONTAINER HANDLING: Nonrefillable container. Do not reuse this container to hold materials other than pesticides or dilute pesticides (rinsate). After emptying and cleaning, it may be allowable to temporarily hold rinsate or other pesticide-related materials in the container. Contact your state regulatory agency to determine allowable practices in your state. Triple rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Fill the container ¼ full with water and recap. Shake for 10 seconds. Pour rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Repeat this procedure two more times. Then offer for recycling or reconditioning, or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, by incineration, or if allowed by state and local authorities, by burning. If burned, stay out of smoke.
