MODE OF ACTION

Grower’s Ally® Crop Defender 3 is formulated with a synergistic blend of botanical oils. Every component plays a role in the highly effective formula. Thyme oil is nature’s disinfectant, powerfully fighting microorganisms and protecting your plants from common pathogens.

Rosemary, clove and peppermint oils kill insects through paralysis and suffocation on contact. When used as a preventative treatment, rosemary oil also has strong repellent properties and any insect not contacted by direct spray will quickly leave the treatment area.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Prior to mixing, shake the concentrate well. For outdoor application, spray plants early in the morning or evening to avoid the hottest part of the day. Avoid spraying in temperatures over 90°F. For indoor application, keep lights and fans off for 2–3 hours after spraying.

PREVENTATIVE: Mix at 0.25% or 10 mL of concentrate per 1 gallon of water. Thoroughly spray the leaves and stems of the plant you are treating until there is runoff. Shake during use. Repeat this process every 7 days to prevent pests.

CURATIVE: Mix at 1.0% or 40 mL of concentrate per 1 gallon of water. Thoroughly spray the leaves and stems of the plant you are treating, including the undersides of leaves, until there is runoff. Shake during use. Repeat this process every 3–5 days, as necessary, until the problem is eradicated.

No limitation on the number of applications per growing cycle. No need to add a wetting agent.
