I have a 2.5 gallon jug, I think this will last 2 lifetimes. What rate are pumpkin growers using as a soil drench, foliar? I've been putting about 1 ounce in 2.5 gallon jug. Thanks for any input and good luck.

My notes say 1 oz per gallon, foliar.

I use it as a drench and also apply at 1 oz per gallon and usually apply about 10 gallons at a time in my hose end sprayer.

1 oz per gallon, as a foliar. We use a pint in 25 gallons for a drench over the entire plant at least once a month.

The phosphite has fungicidal protective properties.

once vine is 6 ft long and starting to get roots other than the base it gets a 5 oz in a 5 gallon drench. ONce the plant is about 10 ft long it goes into the injector where it gets added to the water for the day. It takes about 25 gallons to use a pint from our injector.

Spraying foliar starts at about 7-8 ft long (if the sides are growing and rooting well), once every 2 or 3 weeks.
