Bladbuff (BB5)

A water quality improving agent with wetting, spreading and acidifying qualities with a built in pH indicator for use with contact and systemic pesticides, fungicides, herbicides and foliar feeds.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

* The pH and hardness of spray solutions may have a marked effect on the persistence and ultimate performance of

contact and systemic, alkaline-sensitive pesticides and foliar applied nutrient products. Such pesticides and most foliar

nutrients generally perform best at a pH ranging from 4,5 - 5,0.

* Always add BLADBUFF 5 to the spray water before adding the other components of the spray mix.

* BLADBUFF 5 contains a pH sensitive indicator, which changes the colour of spray water to a shade of pink when the

optimum pH range of 4,5 - 5,0 has been reached.

* The determination of the exact amount of BLADBUFF 5 to be added to the spray water must always be established in

an open container (jug, bucket, etc.) and not by observing the colour change in the dark confines of the spray tank

itself.

* Soft water requires a low concentration of BLADBUFF 5 and turns pink rapidly upon reaching the desired pH. Hard

water will require a higher concentration of BLADBUFF 5 and in this instance a gradual colour change from yellow to

orange and finally a stable pink colour (pH 4,5 - 5,0) will be observed.

* In hard waters the addition of BLADBUFF 5 must be continued whilst agitating constantly until the colour change is

observed.

* The following table merely serves as a general guideline regarding the quantity of BLADBUFF 5 required to adjust the pH of different waters to a level ranging from 4,5 - 5,0.
