Description
BRANDT Indicate 5 is multi-functional adjuvant and water conditioner that counters the detrimental effects of high pH and hard water on sensitive pesticides.
Indicate 5 adjusts water pH and contains a patented, built-in pH indicator that turns the spray water pink as soon as the optimum level of 4.5-5.5 pH is reached. It works by acidifying alkaline water and neutralizing salts present in hard water which can impact spray efficacy.
Indicate 5 also acts as a wetting, spreading and penetrating agent which helps create an even film of spray over the leaf for improved pesticide performance. Many active ingredients are sensitive to alkaline hydrolysis and may become de-activated in hard water, including: glyphosate, organophosphates, synthetic pyrethroids, carbamates, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and triazines.
The Advantages of BRANDT Indicate 5
■ Ensures optimum pesticide performance when the water quality is unknown
■ Eliminates the need to test the water pH with any additional equipment
■ Promotes even pesticide coverage for improved efficacy
■ Reduces surface tension of the spray solution which results in more uniform wetting and spreading
■ Slows drying and improves penetration
Indicate 5 may be applied in a wide range of climates and can be used on most crops. It’s built-in pH indicator will turn the spray water pink as soon as the optimum pH level is reached. Always read full label before use.
Soft Water: A rapid color change occurs from milky white to pink.
Hard Water: Color changes slowly from milky white to yellow to orange to pink.
The correct volume of Indicate 5 to be added to the spray water is indicated by the color: pink at pH between 4.5 to 5.5.
