The use of KeyStrepto™ this season is quickly coming to an end. Growers are reminded KeyStrepto™ cannot be applied within seven days of the first flower opening.

While some Hayward orchards may still be outside of the seven-day window, this window is rapidly closing. Growers are urged to be cautious if applying KeyStrepto™ to ensure they stay well outside of the seven days before flowering period.

Most orchards are well into flowering and KeyStrepto™ use is no longer permitted.
