Re: Admire: rate of application


Brad,

    I am going with the 2ml rate.  I think that the higher rate is better
when you consider the size of a pumpkin plant to tomato plant.  This is just
a guess because I have not researched the manner in which this chemical is
absorbed and distributed by the plant.

It is going to be a learning experience this year.  I have a good supply of
Malathion and Diazinon on hand to take care of any deficiencies that I may
encounter this year.
