Sierra Natural Science 217C Mite Control

SNS 209 Systemic Pest Control approaches the problem of insect pest control by working within the plant itself. This unique organic formula contains rosemeric acid, a derivative of the rosemary plant, that the plant will uptake and spread throughout its vascular system. The presence of rosemeric acid in the plant cells forms a barrier that insects find distasteful. Once a feeding insect comes in contact with the rosemeric acid, they retreat and look for a more suitable food source. Contact with rosemeric acid can be fatal depending on the size of the pest affected and that pest's maturity. Since SNS 209 works within the plant tissue, it provides long term control of a broad spectrum of insect pests. SNS 209 will stay in the plant's leaves, stems and roots and cannot be diluted or washed away by the elements as is the case with foliar sprays. SNS 209 will protect all parts of the plants from a medley of insect attacks. For instance, protected roots will keep grubs and root aphids away while protected stems and leaves will repel the likes of aphids and thrips. Another advantage to the systemic action of this product is that you can use it without fear of harming bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects since they are not actively feeding on the plant. There is no Restricted Entry Interval (REI), either, so you can spray this product as needed, when needed. SNS 209 Systemic Pest Control has been reviewed and found to be compliant with the National Organic Program (NOP). Suggested Uses: For use controlling and repelling Spider Mites, Whiteflies, Fungus Gnats, Thrips, Root Aphids, Scales and more on fruit trees and in vegetable, flower and herb gardens as well as in greenhouses and hydroponics. This Product Controls These Pests or Diseases: Spider Mites (Tetranychidae), Whiteflies (Aleyrodoidea), Fungus Gnats (Bradysia coprophila, Bradysia impatiens), Thrips (Thysanoptera), Root Aphids, Scales (Coccoidea) and other plant feeding insects. APPLIATION: Soil Drench For Potted Plants: Coverage= 1 gallon of mixed solution per 5 gallon potted plant or 115 square feet. 1. Mix ½ tablespoon (8 mL) of concentrate to 1 gallon (3.79L) of water. 2. SNS-209 can be added directly to your reservoir. 3. Mix well and gently feed solution directly onto the root area of the plants every time you water or fertilize. 4. Thoroughly drench to contact as much of the root area as possible. 5. Apply for a minimum of 5 consecutive waterings or until infestation reduces. 6. Repeat after 2 weeks or if infestation returns. 7. It takes 1-2 weeks for SNS-209 to start working, dependent on temperature, and should continue to work for up to 3 weeks. Soil Drench For Row Crops With Drip Irrigation: Coverage= use 2-6 quarts per acre. Repeat steps 2-7 from the Soil Drench application above. Chemigation Systems:  • Anti-siphon and back flow device must be used. • Use in overhead and drip irrigation systems only with a chemical acid rated pump only. • Review the Application & Use found under the MSDS tab for proper rate per acre per crop. • Use chemical at the end of the irrigation cycle in order not to over dilute. Foliar Spray: Coverage= 1 gallon of mixed solution will cover approx. 550 square feet with no REI.1. Mix 2 tablespoons (32 mL) of concentrate to 1 gallon (3.79L) of water. 2. Mix 54 ounces of SNS-209 per 50 gallons of water. 3. Spray every 3-4 days for 21 days. 4. It takes about 2-3 days (1-2 weeks for potted plants) after applying to start working, dependent on temperature, and should continue to work for up to 3 weeks. 5. Reapply every 14-28 days as needed.

Grandevo uses the bacterium Chromobacterium subtsugae strain PRAA4-1T to provide long-lasting, broad spectrum control of sucking and chewing insects. Grandevo's mode of action is multi-faceted; it is toxic to insects and mites when ingested, reduces reproduction rates and repels pests after application. This OMRI listed and NOP compliant organic pesticide/miticide can be a valuable part of any IPM (Integrated Pest Management) program. Simply mix with water and apply as a foliar spray to affected crops. Grandevo can be used on a wide range of edible crops in field and greenhouse applications for the control of a long list of labeled pests. Benefits of Grandevo:

• Increased Plant Health & Yields – Limits damage to crops and stays working to suppress secondary outbreaks.
• 0-day pre-harvest interval (PHI). Use up to the day of harvest.
• 4-hour re-entry interval (REI).
• Managed Resistance – Ideal for use with IRM (Insect Resistance Management) programs. Insects are less able to develop resistance over time compared to traditional insecticides due to the Grandevo's various modes of action. Combine with resistance-susceptible pesticides to improve the effectiveness of your spraying program.
• Reduced Harm to Pollinators & Beneficials – While no pesticide is completely harmless to beneficials, Grandevo poses less hazard than other similar pesticides. For instance, it will repel honeybees for 4-6 days after spraying but has no acute toxicity to them.
• For Organic Use – OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) listed and NOP (National Organic Program) compliant.
• Production Flexibility – Can be used in both greenhouse, indoor and field applications.
• Residue exempt (maximum residue limit – MRL) and CODEX exempt.

Grandevo is also available as water dispersible granules: Grandevo WDG. Suggested Uses: For use as an insecticide/miticide in fields and greenhouses to control a wide range of plant feeding pests (listed below). Application Rates: Refer to the Small Tank Mixes/Use Rates sheet for smaller scale applications.

• Cannabis-Specific Pest & Disease Control
• Ground and aerial applications: Use sufficient water to provide thorough coverage of infested plant parts. The amount of water needed per acre will depend upon crop development, weather, application equipment and local experience.
• Greenhouse Applications: Use 1-3 lbs/100 gals. of water sprayed until just before point of runoff.
• Tank Mix Programs: Apply 1-2 lbs/acre.
• Rotational Programs: Apply 2-3 lbs/acre when alternating.

This Product Controls These Pests or Diseases: Aphids (Aphidoidea), Armyworm (Pseudaletia unipuncta), Asian Citrus Psyllids (ACP), Beetles, Caterpillars, Cutworms, Earworms, Leafhoppers, Loopers, Lygus, Mealybugs (Pseudococcidae), Mites, Moths, Sharpshooters, Spotted Wing Drosophila (SWD), Thrips (Thysanoptera), Whiteflies (Aleyrodoidea) and more. Application Considerations:

• This product temporarily repels honeybees, for 4-6 days after spraying. If possible, time applications so that pollination is not disrupted.
• For insects and mites, thorough coverage of infested plant parts is necessary for effective control. Grandevo does not have systemic activity. For some crops, directed drop nozzles by ground machine are required.
• Under heavy pest populations, apply a knockdown insecticide prior to or in a tank mix with Grandevo. Use the higher label rates, shorten the spray interval and/or increase the spray volume to improve coverage.
• Repeat applications at an interval sufficient to maintain control, depending upon plant growth rate, insect and mite activity and other factors. If attempting to control an insect population with a single application, make the treatment when egg hatch is essentially complete but when larvae or nymphs are young and before economic damage occurs.
• To enhance control, consider tank mixing with contact insecticides/miticides. Use the lower label rates when populations are low and when tank mixing with other insecticides/miticides. Use the higher rates when applied stand-alone, when populations are high or when egg numbers are high.
• For hard-to-wet crops, consider using a spreader/sticker or adjuvant that has been targeted for crop use to enhance coverage and adhesion to the crop.
• Grandevo has been evaluated for phototoxicity on a variety of crops under various normal growing conditions. However, testing on all crop varieties, in all mixtures and combinations, is not feasible. Prior to treating entire crop, test a small portion of the crop for sensitivity.
• Do not spray when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for use. For more details on applications for specific crops and pests, please refer to the label. It can be found under the MSDS tab.

Oil and water: two liquids that have never played well together… until now. Other oil-based products require the addition of a surfactant or wetting agent to reduce the surface tension, which allows for more even coverage on the plant. Unfortunately, this requires constant and rigorous shaking which still does not result in a full even coverage. Trifecta Crop Control’s unique high-shear homogenization process is so effective, it creates TOTAL emulsion of the oils in water, which means you do not need to mix with additional products. Just one product... an all-in-one solution. Click here to see how it compares to other products on the market. Application Rate: 

• 3 times/week
• 2 oz/gal
