1 CAUTION: DO NOT APPLY TOPSIN-M WITHIN ONE DAY OF
HARVEST. Apply additional sprays during harvest if necessary to
provide protection against fruit rots where the harvest is
prolonged or the trees are mixed cultivars. Some cultivars such
as Schmidt, Emperor Francis, and Giant may be sensitive to
captan. Do not apply more than 48 fl oz of Indar 4F per acre per
year.
2 Do not make more than 2 sequential applications of Pristine before alternating to a fungicide with another mode of action.
