Arborist, Greenhouse & Landscape Application Guidelines

IMPORTANT GENERAL INFORMATION AND SPECIAL APPLICATION GUIDELINES . . .Important soil considerations.

In sandy soils, or where leaching is a critical consideration, utilize the lower recommended rates of water, combined with

the higher rates of "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" to minimize and offset inefficient porous soil

characteristics. Important moisture considerations. (1) In times of high or frequent rainfall or saturated soil conditions,

when plant tissues are quite turgid and highly saturated with moisture, you can successfully treat plants under these

conditions; however, you must allow an additional 2-4 days (24-96 hrs) after last rainfall before attempting to harvest

plants. (2) It is advisable to apply "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" prior to hydrating plants, while the plant is at

its highest point of de-hydration and threshold of "thirst" is greatest.You will result in higher levels of "AI" translocating into

the plant - quicker. *Higher label rate recommendations are intended to be utilized to offset more extreme, elevated levels

of environmental or physical stress. Higher label rate recommendations can also help offset the traditionally more difficult

transplant nature of some plant specimens. As a general rule, use lower label rates in lower stress periods, or, for

traditionally easier to transplant ornamentals. Note: Method of root-drench can and will vary widely; however, a thorough,

deliberate root-saturation is imperative for optimum results. Anything "Summer Dug" in the Cherry, Pear, Crabapple, Ash,

family, or "multiple or branched trunk specimens" as in Clump River Birch, or "grafted specimens" - increase label

recommended rates to 3.0 - 4.0 fl. oz of "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" per each caliper inch trunk diameter,

per 5-10 gallon water per each 1" caliper trunk diameter and complete a foliar and root drench pursuant to label

guidelines below. Withe these specimens, allow a minimum of 72-96 hrs prior to digging or transplanting for these more

difficult varieties. Refer specific "Summer-Dig" questions to technical support @ 1-800-441-3573

.

Summer Digging Deciduous Plants . . .To reduce transplant shock, plant decline, defoliation or potential plant loss -

apply "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" to plants 48-96 hrs prior to digging, transporting or transplanting. For

superior results under the most extreme adverse conditions, "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" should be

applied in two ways, at identical dilutions. Prepare Tank-Mix @ *1.0 to 3.0 fl.oz. of Bio-Plex Technical Concentrate per

each caliper inch trunk diameter, into 5-10 gallon water for each 1" caliper trunk diameter. From that total tank-mix, apply

approximately 1/5 to1/4 total tank-mix as a thorough foliar drench, the remainder apply as a root drench (slow-drip

method is preferred, other root-drench methods can prove equally successful).

(Step #1) Foliar Application. Apply tank-mix to foliage until run-off. Question - is foliar application always required?

Generally, the foliar application is only 'skipped' when time or equipment limitations do not permit. The foliar application

allows for an ideal secondary entry point for the active ingredients of "Bio-Plex" to penetrate and more completely

translocate throughout the plants vascular system. Foliar applications allow for larger amounts of "AI" to saturate the plant

tissues more rapidly. For optimum "stress reduction" under high stress thresholds, we highly recommend you DO NOT

"skip" the foliar application. If foliar application is omitted, please allow an additional 1-2 days for supplemental root

adsorption from the root drench procedure. results. CAUTION, Foliar Application Only - Note that Sycamore and some

Maples (at new leaf only) exhibit some adverse sensitivity (TIP-BURN) to foliar spraying. Reduce foliar rates to 1.0 fl. oz.

per caliper inch trunk diameter per 5-10 gallon water, or skip foliar altogether and "root drench only" at standard label

recommended rates.

(Step #2) Mandatory Root Drench - After foliar spray, apply remainder of tank-mix at a proportionate rate so as to deliver

the appropriate amount (1-3 fl.oz. Bio-Plex "AI" per each 1" caliper trunk diameter) to each ornamental to be treated from

tank-mix. Root drenching serves as the "primary" vehicle for the translocation of "Bio-Plex" active ingredients and should

be completed in slow-drip format for best

Summer Digging Conifers . . .Apply "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" to plants 24-96 hrs prior to digging or

transplanting. For best results harvesting Conifers,"Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" can be applied

successfully in one of two ways . . .

(Method #1) Tank-Mix 1.0 to 3.0 fl.oz. of "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" per caliper inch trunk diameter, into

5-7 gallon water per each one inch caliper trunk diameter. From that total tank-mix apply approximately 1/5 -1/4 tank-mix

as a thorough foliar drench, the remainder apply as a root drench (slow-drip preferred). OR

(Method #2) Tank-mix 7.0 - 10.0 fl.oz. of Bio-Plex Technical Concentrate per 10 gallon water. Apply to plant as a liberal

foliar drench to the point of needle saturation and drip. To deliver the remainder of tank-mix material to soil and roots,

adjust spraygun pattern to a coarse high volume stream and generously spray conifer at base of plant (where soil and

trunk meet) to the point of puddling or pooling. As a general guideline, spray at base of plant approximately 10-25

seconds per each 1" caliper trunk diameter (pause as required to prevent tank-mix from migrating from base of tree)

depending on "PSI", etc. Allow 48-96 hours for material to translocate before harvesting.

Follow-up Applications to Summer-Digging or General Ornamental Plant Enhancement to Ornamental

Landscape Installations or Transplants, . . .Re-apply "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" at 15-30 day

intervals or sooner if plant symptom and/ or extreme environmental stress requires (Excess Heat, Cold, Drought, etc.).

Re-applications can be made as root drench alone at a rate of 2.0-3.0 fl. oz. per cal. in. trunk diameter per 3-7 gallon

water per each 1" caliper trunk diameter or gallon size container. Subsequent applications can be effectively spaced at

30-45 day intervals for as long as is required to stabilize plant. For future plant nutritional considerations, use Bio-Plex

Organics, liquid 12-4-6 or 5-10-5 Turf - Tree, Flower and Shrub formulation.

B&B, Containerized Plants at Installation . . .Tank-mix "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate" at 3.0-5.0 fl. oz. per

10 gallon water and deliver in sufficient quantity to thoroughly saturate entire root zone of plant. Healed-in plants in

inventory can be effectively treated every 30-90 days to keep in prime marketable condition. Optional container preplanting

preparation - Full water immersion method. Mix 2-3 fl.oz. per 10-15 gallon water in large tub. submerge plants

until bubbles stop rising from container soils. Remove, drain, and stage for planting within 30 days.

New & Established Landscape Plantings, Annuals, Perennials, Planters, Hanging Baskets . . .Tank-mix 2.0 fl.oz. per

10 gallon water and generously drench "pre or post" planting. Re-apply monthly (21-30 day intervals) when used as plant

enhancer in conjunction with a sound fertility program.

Greenhouse Plant Enhancement Applications . . . New Bedding Plants, Rooted Cuttings, Pots, Tray Containers . . . Mix

30 fl. oz. in 5 gallon water and apply with a Dosatron or Dosamatic injector system. Irrigate at a ratio of 75:1 or 100:1. Reapply

14-28 day intervals. As a liquid fertigation supplement, Mix 20 fl.oz. (@ 30 day cycle), 10 fl.oz. (@7-10 day cycle), in

5 gallon water and apply thru a Dosatron or Dosamatic injector system at a rate of 75:1 or 100:1. Reduction of soluble

fertilizers possible to 25%. Rates used with a "syphonex system" - mix nurse tank source at 1:1 (1 fl.oz. Bio-Plex to 1 fl.oz.

water).

fl.oz. Bio-Plex Concentrate per 5 gallon water and soak for 5 minutes.

TURFGRASS GUIDELINES & RATES OF APPLICATION

Directions For Use: For best results, begin applications when soil temperatures consistently exceed 52° F. Tank-mix with

sufficient water to evenly apply - 0.75 to 3.0 gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. "Bio-Plex Technical Transplant Concentrate"

can be effectively tank mixed with other liquid fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides - ONCE TANK-MIXED,

use within 48 hrs. for best results. “Bio-Plex” is best utilized in conjunction with a good soil test and or as a supplement to

your present fertility program. As always, conduct a compatibility test prior to tank mixing with other liquid fertilizers

(especially high phosphorous formulations), chemicals, and other pesticides.

Golf Course - Greens , Tee - Apply 3.0 (Maintenance) to 5.0 fl. oz. (Curative) per 1,000 sq. ft. at 3 to 6 week intervals

during active growing season on high maintenance warn season grasses. Can be effectively applied while tank-mixed

with other pesticides.

Golf Course - Fairway Application - Apply at 0.5 gallon (Maintenance) to 1.0 gallon (Curative) per acre on warm or cool

season cultivars. Continue spraying at 4-8 week cycles or sooner if required from early Spring thru late Summer. For

optimum results deliver at 60 to 120 gallons of water per acre as a carrier.

Commercial Turf Maintenance - Apply 0.5 to 1.5 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. in conjunction with a balanced "N-P-K" nutrient

management program. Higher rates (1.5 - 2.0 fl oz) would be applicable where more extreme stress, heat, cold, moisture

deprivation currently exists. Tank-mix and spray at 60-120 gallons of water per acre.

Sod Production - New Seeding Program - apply 0.5 gallon "Bio-Plex Technical Concentrate" per acre - 30-45 days post

new seed germination. Second follow-up application in 60-120 days at 1.0 gallon per acre. Tank-mix and spray at 60-120

gallons water per acre.

Turfgrass Overseeding - Apply 21-30 days post seed germination as a foliar spray at 0.5 to1.0 gallon Bio-Plex

Technical Concentrate per acre. Tank-mix and spray at 60-120 gallons per acre.
