Application Guidelines
MyCorrPlus A (GPB-A) is for soil applications only. Its strength lies in its ability to transform microbial life in the soil, flocculate and condition the soil, and help to stimulate the plant to sequester liquid carbon (sugars) into the soil. GPB-C is for foliar applications. For best results, apply a full 40 oz. GPB-A before considering GPB-C.
GPB-A needs a small amount of rain or irrigation water to get it into the soil to start working. If the soil doesn’t have good moisture, an additional inch or more of moisture is needed to activate it.
A tank mix of at least 20 gallons per acre is best. This helps to move it down out of the sun’s reach, whether sprayed on heavy foliage or the bare ground. However, a tank mix of 10 gallons per acre or less or 3 gal./acre using a plane is also ok if within a couple of days GPB has some moisture to carry it into the soil. Another option is to till in MyCorrPlus A. One to two inches works best, but up to 4 inches depth is ok.
crack open the lid to allow it to vent,
thereby preventing a build-up of pressure.
MyCorrPlus may be applied Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter
An early or late spring application can help improve that year’s
crop. Apply ASAP to get it working.
If an early herbicide application is needed, apply that first,
then follow up a week or more later with GPB-A.
A summer application can raise nutrients in the plant and can
really get things rolling in the soil. When applied in the
summer, try to apply after any chemical applications, not before
them. MyCorrPlus helps to restore balance
once chemical applications are made.
A fall application will allow MyCorrPlus A to improve the soil
throughout the fall and early spring. For the
average farmer, this may be the best time to apply it.
A winter application may be more convenient for some farmers,
and works well. The important thing is that the soil is
permeable so that moisture that comes can take it on into the
ground.
How much MyCorrPlus can safely be applied
You needn’t be concerned about harming your soil by applying too
much MyCorrPlus. Just make sure it is thinned down enough not to
burn the leaves. To avoid burning the plant, don’t apply more than
half a gallon per 20 gal./acre tank mix, unless after applying it
GPB is washed off of leaves.
10 ounces per acre is for organic ground where no chemical applications (NPK, herbicides,
pesticides, insecticides, nematicides, etc.) have been made in
the past 2 or 3 years.
15 ounces per acre can
be used where only
light chemical applications have been made in the past number of
years.
For most farms, a 20
ounce application is standard.
Where maximum impact is desired, apply up to 40 ounces per acre.
Once activated by rain or irrigation, a heavier application gets
things rolling in the soil quite quickly.
Working with herbicide applications
- Wait 7 to 10 days after applying a pre-emergent fertilizer,
then apply MyCorrPlus A.
- Wait 3 to 4 days after spraying with a knock-down herbicide
to apply GPB-A.
For increased yields on hay fields
For
non-organic operations, the best approach is to apply 20 GPB-A
as early in the year as possible, then to apply an additional 10 oz./acre
shortly after each cutting. This minimizes any disruptions
brought on by chemical applications.
What is the best way to apply MyCorrPlus A?
For row crops, going in-the-row, on-the-seed or side-dressing at planting with 10 to 20 oz./acre is a highly effective application, and is more efficient than a broadcast application.
For everything other than row crops, use a broadcast or irrigation application. You will want to get it on as soon as possible, whether spring, summer, fall or winter, so it can get a jump start on it's work of optimizing the soil.
Application rate: 1 to 1.5 quarts per
acre.
GPB-C foliar is only recommended when you have accomplished all
that you can with MyCorrPlus A (see above), but desire even
greater results. Not only can one or more applications of MyCorrPlus
C increase yields, but GPB-C may also help to increase
protein, test weights and relative feed value.
These foliar applications may be helpful to conventional farmers
who want greater yields and want to minimize disruptions caused
by chemical applications.
Apply a foliar application of 1 to 1.5 quarts per acre with a 10
gal./acre or more tank mix. It is best applied at the following
times, depending on the crop:
1. Two to four weeks post-emergence
2. During flowering
3. At the beginning stages of fruiting
The best time for making foliar applications is when the temperature is below 80 to 85 degrees. Above that temperature plant stomata close to conserve plant moisture.
Applications methods
MyCorrPlus A is for a soil application only. Of course, it can be broadcast over plants, but it will not be activated until rain or irrigation water carries it down to the soil.
Applying GPB-A:
Broadcast it with a sprayer.
Through an irrigation system, preferably one that blankets the soil. This works quite well.
Through a drip line. MyCorrPlus will not clog up drip lines.
In-the-row, on-the-seed or side dressing is a highly effective way to apply GPB-A. It takes about half the product for the same great results. Apply 10 to 20 oz./acre.
Both GPB-A
and C may be broadcast using spray equipment. They may also be
applied by airplane, using a 3 to 4 gallon per acre tank mix. When
putting GPB-A on with a plane, apply before a rain or water it in
using irrigation.
Herbicides and MyCorrPlus
Herbicides do damage to soil life and balance. However, you can easily overcome this damage so that you still get wonderful results.
As mentioned above, if you are applying a pre-emergent herbicide, it is best to wait 7 to 10 days after the application, then apply MyCorrPlus A. This may be banded over the row at a rate of 10 to 20 oz./acre or broadcast at 10 to 40 oz./acre.
Why wait 7 to 10 days? MyCorrPlus will quickly break down the herbicide, so we want to give the herbicide the time it needs to work.
For knock-down herbicide applications (including glyphosates), apply
the herbicide, then wait 3 or 4 days and apply a 10 oz. application
of MyCorrPlus A to
help restore soil balance.
Working with herbicide, pesticide or nematicide applications
MyCorrPlus needs a minimum of 1.1" of moisture to activate it. It is important not to apply another chemical until it has been activated, or the chemical may kill our micro-organisms. If a chemical application cannot be avoided before GPB is activated, wait 3 weeks after the chemical application, then apply 10 ounces of MyCorrPlus A to help undo the effect of the chemical.
MyCorrPlus is not compatible with most spray solutions
Nitrogen: Do not apply GPB with any Nitrogen, except for 28% or 32%. Put the MyCorrPlus in first, then add any water, and finally add the nitrogen. If another type of Nitrogen is used, wait 3 weeks after applying it and apply an additional 10 ounces of GPB-A.
If you would like to add
any other item with MyCorrPlus into the tank mix, please contact
us first before doing so. Other spray items may negatively affect
the bacteria in MyCorrPlus, plus they can greatly reduce the
ability of MyCorrPlus to help the soil.
When the ground is super dry,
it is best to try to apply GPB-A just before a rain, or to disk it
in. When applying before a rain, use
at least a 20 gal./acre tank mix (more is better) to supply enough
water to carry MyCorrPlus A into the ground or far enough down
into the foliage to get it out of direct sunlight. That way, even if
you don't get the expected rain, MyCorrPlus will not be harmed
as you wait for some rain to activate it.
MyCorrPlus A
applications for areas smaller than an acre
One teaspoon of MyCorrPlus is perfect for 200 square feet. An ounce treats 1,000 square feet, and an 8 oz. bottle treats 8,000 square feet. A watering can or garden hose sprayer works well for this application.
Foliar applications with
MyCorrPlus Balance
C
When using a pump up sprayer for foliar applications, add 1 tsp. of
MyCorrPlus C per 1/2 gallon of water.
When applying MyCorrPlus C with a pump up sprayer to sensitive
plants like tomatoes and some flowers, add 1 tsp. per 1 gallon of
water.
MyCorrPlus C applications may also be made with a watering can
or a hose end sprayer at
the teaspoon per 2 quart rate.
