Tools Needed

Apply with a watering can, hose proportioner, hose-end sprayer, backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, or spray rig.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much ENC Ele-Max Nutrient Concentrate to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Find the square footage by measuring the treatment area's length and width in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For golf course applications, apply 7 oz. of ENC Ele-Max Nutrient Concentrate per 1,000 sq. ft. To treat fruit and nut trees, use 2 quarts of product per 5 gallons of water per acre. For general use such crops and ornamentals in regular crop protection spray programs, mix 1 quart of product per 100 gallons of water or use between 1 to 3 quarts of product per 5 gallons of water per acre. Refer to the product label for specific application rates and restrictions. 
• Step 2: Fill the sprayer tank with half the amount of water, add the proper amount of product, and then pour in the remaining half of the water. Close the tank lid and shake until the solution is well-mixed. 
• Step 3: Spray evenly over foliage until surfaces are just wet, but not dripping. Repeat in two weeks.
