## Usage Instructions
*   **WEAR FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR (Gloves, Goggles, Mask)** when handling the concentrate. It is highly alkaline and can cause severe burns.
*   **Always add the concentrate to water, never water to the concentrate,** to prevent a violent reaction.
*   **Do not mix** with any acidic inputs, oils (like neem oil), or other pesticides. Mixing with acids will release toxic hydrogen sulfide gas.
*   Perform a **phytotoxicity test** on a small section of the crop before widespread application, especially in hot weather.
*   Use a dedicated sprayer, as the solution can be corrosive to metal parts over time.
### **Application Guidelines**
   **Preventative Spray** (for diseases/pests)
    *   **Dilution Rate:** 1 ml per litre of water
    *   **Instructions & Cautions:** Apply every 10-15 days during high-risk periods (high humidity).
   **Curative Spray** (active infestation)
    *   **Dilution Rate:** 2 – 3 ml per litre of water
    *   **Instructions & Cautions:** Apply at first sign of disease or pests. Repeat every 7-10 days if necessary.

   **As a Nutrient Supplement**
    *   **Dilution Rate:** 0.5 – 1 ml per litre of water
    *   **Instructions & Cautions:** Can be used in fertigation or as a foliar to supply K and S.

## Application Timing
*   **Dormant Season (for perennial crops):** Can be used as a dormant spray to kill overwintering pest eggs and fungal spores.
*   **Early Vegetative Stage:** Begin preventative sprays to build a protective layer.
*   **Pre-Flowering to Fruit Set:** A critical period for preventing flower and fruit diseases.
*   **At the first sign of disease or pest outbreak:** Apply the curative dose immediately.
*   **Avoid spraying during full bloom** to protect pollinators, and during the heat of the day to avoid leaf burn.
