Notes: Avoid using Group 4 products more than twice/season for all registered uses to prevent mite problems. Not all stone fruit varieties have been tested for tolerance to PureSpray Green Oil 13E. It is therefore important to limit application to a small area of each variety to confirm tolerance prior to adoption as a general field practice. Post harvest sprays of Purespray may be made to reduce over-wintering pressure.
