This sunflower program is intended for informational use only.  For the best possible results tailored to meet your needs and soil type, check with your Grower's Source™ representative for specific recommendations.

Pre-Plant
Goal
Reason
Normal Soil
32 oz. N2-GROW™ per acre
Stimulate soil and prevent disease

In a properly balanced soil, beneficial microorganisms outnumber and suppress disease causing organisms.  N2-GROW™  and OVERHAUL™ stimulate the soils microbiology, improves air and water flow and balances the soil.


OVERHAUL™ has added ingredients to lessen the effects of excess sodium in alkali soils and residual herbicides.  The stimulation of beneficial bacteria is designed to increase their numbers and effectiveness in helping minimize the Pythium, Rhizoctonia and other disease causing organisms to minimize any future damage.


NOTE: *For pH higher than 6.8 and/or high sodium content. Also good for chemically damaged fields. 

*Alkali/Sodium Soil
32 oz. OVERHAUL™ per acre
Planting
Goal
Reason
4-8 oz. REVAMP™ per acre

Rapid germination, stimulated root growth and disease prevention

REVAMP™ penetrates quickly and stimulates microbial activity around the seed, stimulating root mass. Increased root growth at this stage increases the health, disease and drought resistance, and yields.


This treatment gives the seed a quick, strong start to withstand disease and limit the effects of any adverse environmental conditions such as: drought, flooding, hail, temperature, etc.

Bloom
Goal
Reason

8 oz. REVAMP™ per acre


apply with Head Moth insecticide spray

More complete plant reproductive stimulation
At bloom stage, REVAMP™ gives the plant some enzyme nutrients to encourage maximum elongations of seeds and greater potential yield.
Fungicide Application
Goal
Reason
8 oz SSS per acre
More complete fungus control
SSS™ is a specialized high molecular non-ionic spreader sticker including pharmaceutical soaps that enhance the effectiveness of fungicides even at their lowest label rates.  The creation of synergistic reaction with your chosen fungicide, along with SSS™ gives a more complete and longer lasting disease control with healthier plants and great yields.


Herbicide Spray Program

Apply 16 fl. oz. WILDFIRE™ per 100 gallon tank mix with contact herbicides.

Insecticide Spray Program

Apply 16 - 32 oz. INSECT-X-CITER™ per 100 tank mix with insecticides.

Note about Spraying:

We strongly recommend using an adjuvant with your spray program.  Grower's Source™ specialty surfactants (SSS™, N2-GROW™, WILDFIRE™, INSECT-X-CITER™) have proven cost effective with spray applications of chemicals (fungicides, herbicides, pesticides) to allow lowest label rates with better results.  The synergy can add potency and extend the chemical life and have allowed some growers to experiment and get exceptional results with well under label rates.

Please ask your Grower's Source™ representative for the appropriate product for your needs and grower's experiences in your area.
