Guidelines
- 1 lbs. of Explorer™ may be needed weekly for an 8-to-10-week cycle in cooler conditions and hopefully have drip tape in place
- Calcium is required generally when the plants are at the 12” to 15” stage and 64 ounces per acre of Calcium 880Plus™
- Budget review is mandatory for cost analysis per acre and the quality of compost is critical for NPK
