  • Cyanamide is a plant growth regulator.
  • ALERT 520 SL promotes rest breaking.
  • Promotes a more uniform and earlier budbreak.
  • Improved management due to more uniform vineyards.
  • Promotes an earlier and condensed harvest time.
  • Do not mix ALERT 520 SL with insecticides or fungicides at 1.5% or higher dosage rates.
  • Ensure complete coverage of the buds for rest breaking.
  • Spray at low pressure (<100 kPa) to prevent any potential damage to the buds.
  • Take cumulative cold units during May-July into consideration when determining the dosage rate for even budbreak.
  • Do not mix with pruning wound compounds.
  • Cold units through the winter plays a key role in the dose rate required.

Even bud-break:
- Apply 3-5 ℓ/100ℓ water ALERT 520 SL 3-4 weeks prior to expected budbreak, depending on the table grape cultivar.

Advancement of bud-break:
- Apply 3-5 ℓ/100ℓ water ALERT 520 SL 6-7 weeks before expected budbreak, depending on table grape cultivar.
